Your Petitioner is Utter Singh, late Indian Sergeant-Major of the Hongkong Police Force.\n\n2. to 4. (Omitted due to lack of information)\n\n5.—Prejudged and prejudiced as the matter has been from the first under a misapprehension of the circumstances, set forth by interested parties before the Captain Superintendent, it has been unfortunately further prejudiced by certain cases that have cropped up recently against men of the type of Gunda Singh, but your Petitioner unflinchingly believes that his conduct in the matter of the alleged transaction with Da Rocha will bear thorough investigation, and that he also confidently believes that he will come out of that inquiry without the slightest tar or tarnish on his character, and that he will be saved from the ignominy attaching to a dismissal.\n\n6. Your Petitioner, therefore, earnestly prays that, taking all the circumstances respectfully urged by him in this and the previous Petitions, your Excellency will be graciously pleased not to condemn a servant of the Crown in the position of your Petitioner without that your Excellency will be pleased to appoint an independent Commission of Inquiry to formally investigate the conduct of the Petitioner in the transaction attributed to him with Da Rocha, and to act on the Report of the Commission. Your Petitioner cannot but entertain an honest belief that such an inquiry will prove him not guilty of any breach attributed to him of any of the Rules and Regulations, in force at the time the alleged transaction was said to have taken place, for the general government and discipline of the Police.\n\n7.—Or, if the appointment of an independent Commission of Inquiry be deemed inexpedient by your Excellency, your Petitioner humbly prays that your Excellency will be pleased to review, on the grounds urged by him, your Excellency's decision as to the dismissal of the Petitioner from the Police Force, or to so far modify your Excellency's decision as to grant to your Petitioner the pension honestly accruing to him after almost a lifetime of service, and to which your Petitioner ventures to say in this Petition also hardly any member of the Indian Police Force can now lay claim.\n\n8. And Your Petitioner will ever pray, &c.\n\nDated this 24th day of April, 1897.\n\n**UTTER SINGH, LATE INDIAN SERGEANT-MAJOR, HONGKONG POLICE FORCE**\n\n## To the Honourable J. H. Stewart Lockhart, Colonial Secretary\n\nSIR,\n\nHongkong, 4th June, 1897.\n\nOn behalf of myself and the signatories, I have the honour to forward the enclosed Petition, respecting the case of Ex-Sergeant-Major Utter Singh, of the Police Force, which I beg you will please place before His Excellency The Governor for his favourable consideration.\n\nI have the honour to be,\nSir,\nYour most obedient servant,\n**E. PADANEY**\n\n# THE HUMBLE PETITION OF THE UNDERSIGNED INDIAN BRITISH MERCHANTS, TRADERS, AND OTHERS RESIDING IN THE COLONY OF HONGKONG\n\n## To His Excellency Sir William Robinson, K.C.M.G., Governor and Commander-in-Chief of the Colony of Hongkong and its Dependencies and Vice-Admiral of the Same\n\n**SHEWETH:-**\n\n1.—Your Petitioners are Indian Merchants, Traders, and loyal subjects of Her Majesty Queen of Great Britain and Empress of India, and carrying on business in Hongkong and elsewhere.\n\n2.—They have known Utter Singh, late Indian Sergeant-Major of the Hongkong Police Force, for a number of years, and have every reason to believe that as a Police Officer, he has served Her Majesty the Empress in the Hongkong Police for upwards of eighteen years, and has during that time, by his good conduct, deservedly earned the respect and confidence of all his superior officers, as he has done of your Petitioners, and that your Petitioners could not but feel gratified that such conduct deservedly secured him the promotion, in 1895, to the highest rank the Indian section of the Hongkong Police Force could aspire to, that is to the rank of Sergeant Major.\n\n3.—Your Petitioners heard with great regret that on the 3rd day of December, 1896, the said Singh was dismissed from the said Police Force by the Honourable the Captain Superintendent of Police for an alleged breach of the Police regulations, and that he was thus not only deprived of the pension and gratuity that had accrued to him after many years of hard and faithful service, but that also the ignominy of dismissal was inflicted on him.\n\n4.—Your Petitioners believe that the circumstances which led to the dismissal of Utter Singh were an alleged implication in some money-lending transaction, said to have transpired some three years ago, and that being implicated, as alleged, in such transaction was and is against the regulations of the said Police Force.\n\n5.—Your Petitioners are informed that all the circumstances attaching to the alleged money-lending transaction have been duly set forth in representations made to your Excellency by Utter Singh, but your Petitioners extremely regret that the redress which the said Utter Singh seeks, on the plea of not guilty, has been absolutely denied to him. Your Petitioners further regret that, beyond a certain informal procedure of inquiry adopted by the Captain Superintendent of Police, Utter Singh was never definitely informed of the exact nature of the charges made against him, and your Petitioners, therefore, respectfully submit that he had not had those opportunities of refuting those charges as could have thoroughly exculpated him in the eyes of his superior officer, though in the informal inquiry made as to an alleged lending of fifty dollars some three years ago to one Da Rocha, a telephone clerk in the Central Police Station, it has got clearly to come out that Da Rocha repeated one story before the Captain Superintendent under that officer's previous inquiry in Utter Singh's absence, but radically subverted it when confronted with him, so much so that the Captain Superintendent was not slow to tax him severely for so prevaricating. This circumstance cannot but have a double bearing: first, that the informal inquiry had not been sufficient enough for eliciting the facts of the case, and, secondly, that the safeguards instrumental in guarding against deliberate prevarication had been altogether wanting in the Captain Superintendent's informal inquiry.\n\n6.—Your Petitioners will not pretend to shield the said Utter Singh from the just penalty of any breach of Police Regulations, but your Petitioners feel that the exceptional severity with which he has been condemned and dealt with is almost unheard of, and the extent of the punishment inflicted on him has not been fully appreciated by your Excellency, and your Petitioners cannot but regret that that severity is further enhanced many fold when Utter Singh's prayer for an independent Commission of Inquiry remains altogether unheeded.\n\n7.—Your Petitioners cannot but be aware that under a misapprehension of the circumstances, as set forth by interested parties before the Captain Superintendent, Utter Singh's case has from the first been prejudged and prejudiced, and that it has been further prejudiced by certain aspects of the Sikh characteristics that have cropped up against them in some of the cases that were recently heard in the Supreme Court. But your Petitioners beg to observe that, on the whole, the Sikhs are not so very black as they are painted. That they are not exempt from certain failings, your Petitioners can hardly gainsay. They have, as Sir Lepel Griffin, a former Lieut-Governor of the Punjab, has described them, \"as keen a knowledge of the value of money, and as great a love of saving as the Scotch.\" But that they are dignified, faithful, and orderly men, obedient to discipline, and devotedly attached to their officers is also a fact attested by the very same authority.\n\n8.—Your Petitioners have always observed that Utter Singh, like many others in the Police Force of this Colony, is a type representing the latter characteristics, and though possibly he may come under the former category as well, still your Petitioners believe that that being a trait common to many nations is no bar to a prayer for fair hearing on the true merits of his individual case, and that, therefore, your Petitioners venture to approach your Excellency with a very respectful prayer that your Excellency may be pleased to review your decision in Utter Singh's case, and to grant that redress and that justice to him which the merits of his case, in conjunction with the consideration of his long and faithful service of nearly eighteen years, entitle him to as a servant of the Crown.\n\nAnd Your Petitioners will ever pray, &c.\n\nHONGKONG, 31st May, 1897.\n\n| Name |\n| --- |\n| E.

March, 13th. 1914\n\nThe firm of H. Ruttongee & Son, 38 Queens Road, Central, Hong Kong, China, sent us an order for some printing 21/11/13. We duly despatched it but our forwarding agents advise us that the printing is now at Hong Kong, that they have repeatedly advised consignee to take delivery but so far their efforts have been fruitless. We suppose the reason is that there was cash to collect on delivery £10. 18. 9. Can you advise us as to what means we can take either to collect or get the cost of getting back the printing from Hong Kong, together with the carriage.\n\nYoung Pithfull,\n\n**ORDERS ARE ONLY ACCEPTED** on condition that D. A. & S., Ltd, are not liable to make good any damages or loss or delay in manufacture or delivery, whether occasioned by the negligence of their servants or those of Sub-Contractors, or by any other cause.\n\n**DAVID ALLEN & SONS BILLPOSTING Ltd.** is now the Largest Billposting firm in the World, and in addition to its Irish and Australian connections has lately acquired most of the leading Scottish Companies, including M'Millan Dundee; Locke, Steadman. Ltd. Edinburgh; Stirling L. P. Co. Ltd., Bryce, Glasgow & Lanarkshire etc.",
