Whereas by " The Naval Stores Ordinance (Hongkong) 1875 ," it is enacted that no
person should, after the commencement of that Ordinance, use or exercise the trade or
business of

a licence for that purpose ; and that every such licence should be granted by and held at
the discretion of the Governor, on such conditions as to fees, and subject to such regula
tions, as should, from time to time, be prescribed by the Governor in Council . Now,
therefore, His Excellency JOHN POPE HENNESSY, Esquire, C.M.G., in Council, by virtue
of the powers in that behalf by the recited Ordinance or otherwise in him vested , is
pleased to order that the regulations made by His Excellency Sir RICHARD GRAVES
MACDONNELL in Council, on the 28th day of September, 1867, under " The Naval and
Victualling Stores Ordinance ( Hongkong ) 1867 ," shall remain and continue in force
under the said recited Ordinance of 1875, until further notice.
