On behalf of the Parsee community and those present here, I have great pleasure in presenting Mr. Ruttonjee with this chiming clock and cocktail set as a memento of the occasion, coupled with the wish that he will enjoy many more years of health and happiness.
Mr. Ruttonjee, in a brief speech, thanked the gathering for the handsome presents, and said he would treasure them always. He also thanked them for the kind reception they had arranged in his honour and for their good wishes.
The inscription of the clock was as follows: Presented to H. Ruttonjee, Esq., J.P., by his Parsee friends and well-wishers on the occasion of his 50 years' residence in Hongkong, August 21, 1884-1934.
