Sir,

I have the honour to acknowledge the

receipt of your despatch No.63 of the 28th of February, 1938, regarding a representation forwarded by the

Right Honourable Sir Matthew Nathan, G.C.M.G., from

Miss M. A. Lee, formerly Nursing Sister, Hong Kong,

on the difficulty which she is experiencing in living

on her pension. I regret that I find it impossible

to consider any supplementation of pension in individual

cases of hardship such as this, particularly at such a

distant date from the first award.

I have the honour to be,

J.

Sir,

Your most obedient, humble servant,

(. At hathcote

Governor.

W. G. A. ORMSBY-GORE, P.C., M.P.,
