Dr. Burbon had a long association with Hongkong. It was in 1910 that passed through the Colony on his way to ta

to take up the post of Governor of Macao for the first time. A change of Government in Lisbon, early in 1010. unfortunately led to his recall. In that short tenure he had shown undeniable gifts as an ad- ministrator, and he returned later to full his excellent promise.

Success Achieved

When he reached Maeno again in 1926, it was to find an Improverished Colony, with a depleted exchequer, and anti-foreign feeling among the Chinese population. By his tact and franicness, he soon succeeded in gain- ing goodwill, including that of the authoritles of the districts adjacent to Macao and of the Canton provincial government. A fast friendship be tween himself and many leading Chinese officials was the result. The kindness which he showed to Dr. Sun Yat-sen In the latter's second

exile in 1918 was remembered.
