C.

I have the honour to write on behalf of a Chinese student (British subject) who has recently arrived in this country with an introduction from the Hongkong Branch of the Victoria League, which was recently set up by H.E. Sir William Peel for the assistance of students coming to this country.

The student's name is H. N. Chau, and he has been articled for five years to Messrs. Johnson Stokes and Master, Solicitors and Notaries Public, of Hongkong.

The student intends to take the Hongkong examination for Solicitors. Owing to the absence of a Law School at Hongkong University he has found it necessary to come to this country to take a course of study. He hopes to be ready to sit for the examination in March, 1934, but there is always the possibility that he may not succeed at his first attempt. In order to avoid the great expense of going to Hongkong to take the examination, in which he may not be successful, he asks me to enquire whether it could be arranged for the papers to be sent over to this country and for him to sit for the examination in some place appointed by the authorities.

As you may have had similar cases in the past I venture to enquire whether it would be possible for him to take the examination under Government supervision in this country.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient servant,
