MAGISTRATE, The Governor of Shansi refers to the case of Ping-vii, late Acting Distr M: trate at Kucihuach'eng, who was degraded on account of defalcations in his accounts and given four months within which to make full restitution of the amount short, namely Tls. 1,550.
A promise was made to him that should he pay the amount within the time mentioned application would be made to get his rank restored. The Financial and Judicial Commissioners now report that the amount has been repaid, and as this is evidence of some feeling of shame and zeal on the part of Ping-vii, memorialist prays that he be rewarded by the restoration of his former rank.—Granted: Let the Board take note.
