With reference to your letter No. 3730/1919 of

the 21st May last regarding a Dr. August Gaston or Bach, wo

claimed that he had offered his services to the Government

of Indo-China, I have the honour to inform you that I have

just received a few days ago a letter from the Chef de la Sûreté at Hanoi informing me that Dr. Auguste Gaston or

August Bach is quite bnknown both to the Administration

of Indo-China and to the Government of Tonkin,

As I had already enquired regarding him in Saigon

without result, it thus transpires that there is no corrob-

oration forthcoming of Dr. Gaston or Bach's statement thet

he offered his services to the Government of Indo-China.

I regret the delay in answering your letter which

has been due to the time that elepsed before I received a reply to the enquiry I addressed to the Chef de la Sûreté

at Hanoi.

I have, &c.,

yous floor.
