Secretary of State for the Colonies,

1st May, 1920.

  • 2 -

We understand he has now left for Hong Kong taking the boy, who is only 7 years old, with him. Although he promised the Magistrates he would allow his wife $27. a month, she has not had a penny from him since November, and she thought that if we wrote to you you might intercede in the matter and help her, as she is now practically destitute and if it was not for one or two kind friends in this Borough she would have to go to the workhouse.

Thanking you in anticipation of an early reply.

Yours faithfully,

C.A. Ring Franckswis

Secretary of State for the Colonies,

Downing Street,
