About Hong Kong.

Do you know that-----

The Hongkong Volunteers were first established in 1882, following a meeting held at the Supreme Court?

Enrolment was open to men the of any nationality, and first Commandant was Cap- tain (later Lieut.-Col.) F.. Brine, RA. The first of- cera, all of whom were elect- ed by members of the Corps, were Messra. W Kane, R. B. Baker, J. M. Frazer and J. Dodd.

A battery of artillery was first formed, and in December a band was organised. In the following year, a rifle corps was added, whilst in 1864 Volunteers were also en- rolled from foreign residents in. Canton.

In 1868, the Government sanctioned an annual expendi- ture of £195, on the condition that there were at least 75 effective members.

(Some further history of the Corps will appear to-morrow.)
