I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt
of your telegram of the 23rd November on the subject of motor
vessel "Wing Hung" and to report on the enquiries made before
His Majesty's Consul-General at Canton was recommended to
grant permission for the ship to ply under the British Flag
in Chinese Inland Waters.
2.
The first report received by this Government
regarding the "Wing Hung" was received from His Majesty's
Consul-General on the 9th January, 1928; and this was
followed by despatch No.24 of the 19th January notifying the
withdrawal of trading facilities from the ship. Copies of
these documents are enclosed.
3.
The owners, at that time, the Kwong On Co.,
Ltd., were able to produce satisfactory evidence of British
ownership and the Consul General was informed accordingly as
in the enclosed letter dated 1st March, 1928.
4.
Subsequent correspondence is attached to
Canton despatch No.144 of 17th September to Peking, to which your telegram refers and which is, I presume, already in
your hands.
5.
On the 8th of June Mir. Honsanh Loud alias Lau
Hon Sang, made an application for a British Born Subject
Certificate

LIEUTENANT COLONEL L.C.M.S. AMERY, M.2.,
