Sir,

With reference to my despatch No.118 of

the 27th February, 1935, regarding the visit to Hong Kong

of Mr. E. Burney, M.C., I have the honour to inform you that sums totalling H.K.$330 were advanced to Mr. Burney

for his personal expenses while in the Colony.

2.

Mr. Burney undertook to repay these advances

on his return to London or to agree to their deduction from

the honorarium to be paid to him on the conclusion of his

mission.

3.

I shall be glad if the Crown Agents for the

Colonies may be instructed to adjust this payment at the

rate of exchange of the day.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient, humble servant,

Governor, &c.
