I agree that we should not do this for him. But no doubt we have always sent copies of these reports to, at any rate, the L.G.B. and the Min. of Health, and that Dept. has probably kept them in some sort of collected form, whereas we only have the telegrams in our ordinary series of corresp. and it will be very laborious to search, unless the Registers contain the figures (and even then it will be laborious). Moreover, we shall have to get bound volumes from the R.O. for the first six years or so of the period.
Will you therefore please re-consider the reply. I should be inclined to ask M. of H. if they have kept the records in a collected form.

During the preparation of a Report to the Public Health Department, Cairo, on the Plague conditions of Egypt, giving the results of an investigation carried out during two years before the War, I have found it necessary to study the prevalence of Plague in Far Eastern localities, and am very desirous of obtaining the human Plague statistics for Hongkong since the outbreak in 1894. None of the Hongkong Plague Reports available to me give the information in a form suitable for the analysis I propose to make.
I beg, therefore, to request that you will be so good as to supply me with the numbers of Plague cases and Plague deaths for fortnightly or monthly periods (I prefer arranged in calendar months) for the whole of each year since 1894.
It would, further, be very useful to me if in addition the type of human Plague - bubonic, septicaemic, and primary pneumonic - were shown.
I have the honour to be, Sir,
your obedient servant
