THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 19TH MARCH, 1892.
13. OXFORD LOCAL EXAMINATIONS.-Last July there were from this College, one Senior and thirteen Junior Candidates, the Senior Candidate passed, and three Juniors also received certificates. There would have been four more successes, but for failures in Shakespeare, which is naturally a stiff subject for Chinese boys, and is rendered doubly so by the short time (four months) available for its preparation.
14. CAREERS OF BOYS.-During the last twelve-months 96 boys from this College obtained situations; viz. 4 in the Colonial Service; 9 in the Chinese Imperial Service, Customs and Telegraph; 40 in Mercantile and Professional Offices in Hongkong; and 43 at the Coast Ports, in Japan, and elsewhere.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient Servant,
GEO. H. BATESON WRIGHT, D.D., Oxon, Head Master.
