La Hacienda - RBL 21 - (1st generation) [1880-????]

Submitted by annelisec on Sun, 01/03/2010 - 22:50

Originally owned by Sir George Phillippo, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Hong Kong.   He and Lady Phillippo used it as their summer home.  He left the colonial service in 1888.

In 1890 it was used as a private hospital opened by Dr. James Cantlie.  The second matron Sister Annie Thompson, was listed there in 1894, but she was fired, and was found to have taken hospital funds, and I presume Cantile closed the hospital.  Dr. and Mrs. Cantile left Hong Kong in 1895.

In 1894 is was the home of Mr. Dodwell.
