An examination has now been made into the losses

incurred by British subjects as a result of this attack.

I have the honour, under instructions from His Majesty's

Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, to lay

before Your Excellency a claim on this account of thirty

thousand four hundred and sixty-nine Hongkong dollars

($30,469).

Particulars of this claim will be found on

the statement enclosed herein.

I avail myself of this opportunity to renew to

Your Excellency the assurance of my highest considera-

tion.
