made to locate one such statue. If this can be done I should

be grateful if consideration could be given to the possibility

of making castings of the missing parts and forwarding them to

Hong Kong or, alternatively, of supplying moulds with which the

necessary castings could be made in this Colony.

Should it not prove possible for either castings or

moulds to be supplied, the artist's designs, if they are still

available, could be forwarded to me together with designs and

descriptions of the Crown, the Orb and Sceptre, and the heraldic

panels, which could no doubt be furnished by the College of Heralds.

But in view of the very considerable technical difficulties which

would be involved in the production of three-dimensional castings

from drawings and descriptions I should be grateful if in the

first place every effort might be made to supply the necessary

replacements in the manner suggested in paragraph four above.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient, humble servant,

hank Young.

GOVERNOR.
