Hawkins was a teacher at a provincial Chinese college, Soochow (Suzhou) and had worked for the Imperial Maritime Customs (in Santuao for a while – now Sandu Ao in Fuzhou) and the Chinese Maritime Customs Service in Manchuria, including a spell as a teacher at the Customs Service College in Shenyang.
