Wa must not forget that in you we have an efficient Government (fficer who has brought with him an invaluable experience gained dut ing the years in the Federate-t Malay Service.
Long before your arrival here your fame as a capable administr tor had reached our ears, and the hope we entertained for the saccess in your official career has been amply realized, and we have always found in you as Officer capable of accomplishing what is entrusted to you, however difficult it may be."
From your fist arrival in the Straits as al Cad-t in the year 1898 up to the time when you were transferred in Perak as Protecter of Chinese in 1895 you shewed promise of be coming a useful officer to Government.
It was due to your energy and capabilities of organisation that the Mines Department came into being in the year 1895 in the Native States. Underyou as Warden, the Mines Branch of the Government Service in the Native States expanded and did a good deal towords im- proving the mining industry in this part of the world.
Owing to your administrative abilities which are deservedly recognised by the Government, you were specially chosen to re-organise the Mnes Department in Selangor in the year 1847.7
and in the following year you look: chargo in the State of Rahang the triple appointments of Senior Magistrate, Protector of Chinese and Warden of Mines. This alone-speaks eloquently" your capability for work. Ultimately you were promoted to act as British Resident of Pahang...
.༢
We have no doubt that you have a splendid.
havela future before you and it cannual be controverted that you would shine in whatever walk of life your lot might have been cast..
That you may be spared to assist in the administration of our colonial affairs for any years to come and that you may receive soma substantial recognisance fr Government in the immediate fature for the valuable and meritorious services you have rendered to Government during the last eighteen ́years, will be our fervent hope and desire,
We cannot conclude without, wishing that you will enjoy a well-earred holiday while you are at home on leave and we also look in your return with deep yearnings and; heartfelt w:1

In reply Mr. Burnes said, that he feared they had given him credit for a great deal which was. not his due. He could claim very small credit for the harmonious rel tions between the Gove.. ernment and the Chinese here, as.ha, was only a middleman. No one had the interests of the Chinese community or the ipjèrests of tḥe Colony, more at heart, and no one was mare,willing to do good for the Chinese, than the Government abiding than the Chinese community. All ho On the other hand no body could be more law-
could claim was to bave poliited out to Gov. ernment that their objects, could sometimes be obtained, betier in ong, way, then, in un other. Occasionally he had been, able to 400," present to the Government some instancra where the Chinese thought there w room for improvement, Pul they all knew that?” no one was more ready to listen to improv ments than His Excellency the pressat Govers, 2 not. His task, as middleman.between two friends had been a very pleasant one.
