Sir.
"The Hong Kong Telegraph," an evening
newspaper published in this Colony under British
direction, by the South China Morning Post, Limited,
celebrates the 50th anniversary of its establishment
on June 15th next.
The object of this letter is to enquire
whether you would be good enough to forward us a
brief message for publication in a Special Jubilee
Number which we hope to issue.
During the period of its existence, the
"Telegraph" has consistently striven to uphold British
interests and to promote Anglo-Chinese friendship
not only in this Colony, but also in the extensive
area in South China in which it circulates. In this
connection, we may mention that in Hong Kong alone
there are approximately a million Chinese inhabitants,
of whom the greater number are subjects of His Majesty!
the King.
