My dear Blackett,

I am sorry to bother you again about Hong

Kon, but there is an important matter on which I

think I ought to consult you.

Our latest information indicates that

the site proposed for the Company's wireless station

is at a place called Pingshang, which is in the

north-west corner of the leased territory. On the

other hand, Dorling of the Admiralty tells me that

he has heard that the site proposed is on the

island. I believe he heard this from Vyvyan, your

Engineer. Can you give me definite information on

the point? If you have actually decided on a site

on the island, i don't think there is anything more

to be said. If, on the other hand, the leased

territory site is still contemplated, I should like

to have some conversation on the subject either with

you or with Vyvyan.

Yours sincerely,

SIK BASIL BLACKETT, K.U.E.
