The man they have in mind for this work is the Rev. August Nagel, who has been a missionary in China since 1894. He was a member of the Commission of the British and Foreign Bible Society appointed to revise the Hakka Bible. If Mr Nagel is for any reason unacceptable to the Hongkong Government the Basel Society would be willing to substitute another missionary. In the event of permission being granted to the Basel Society to resume their work in Hongkong they would make application to the Board of Trustees for the use of their former property.

If there are any matters in connection with the return of the German missionaries to which the Hongkong Government attach importance, the Conference of Missionary Societies would be willing to bring them to the attention of the German societies and believe that these societies would be willing to conform to all reasonable requirements of the Government.

Your humble and obedient servant,
