of the hordes of robbers who seemed to make Hongkong their "happy hunting ground" even at that carly day. Major-General D'Aguilar did not hesitate to use the troops for this purpose, ferreting" out male Factors with such

that nowadays he would have 85- suredly earned for himself the title of a sort of "super G-man." AB a rule, Major-General D'Aguilar got along quite well with his superior, Governor Davis, even going so far as to sanc- tion what were popularly regarded ng some of the latter's worst acts. On the whole, too, he was quite well liked by the English community in the Colony, and upon bis departure for England by the P. & O. Co.'s steamer Lady M. Wood on February 28, 1848 there were expressions of regret. Several addresses were pre- sented to him, and a group of his nd- mirers testifled their respect by giv- ing him a dinner at the Club Thursday, February 24.

Major-General D'Aguller died in London, on May 21, 1855. He had reached the rank of Lieutenant- General, and had been the recipient of a K.C.B. from Queen Victoria. The Colony where he served

has commemorated his sojourn here as its first G.O.C. by naming ofter him that thoroughfare familiar to every resident-D'Agullor Street.
