Can anyone help Mr Gavigan ?  Sounds like 'From Sea to Sea' but I can't verify since I am in Donegal away from my books.

Warmest good wishes to all for the New Year

Dear Sir
 
I am trying to find the source of a famous quote which described Hong Kong as "a barren island with hardly a house upon it"
 
I believe it may have been said by Rudyard Kipling but would be very grateful if you could confirm that this is the case.
 
Many Thanks
