LODNON,

S. W.

With further reference to my letter of October 5th and your reply of october 19th lasb, I regret to have to inform you that Mr. S. A. Neville died in the Hospital of this Institition this morning after a week's illness.

In view of the suggestion conveyed in your letter that the Governor of Hong Kong would be invited to make a contribution to the Homes from the funds of the Colony I am to suggest that it would be opportune if such contribution included the cost of

Mr. Neville's funeral expenses.

I 80,

Yours faithfully,

Misects

Secretary.
