DEPARTING
Mr. F. W. W. Valpy Sailing For England
Mr. F. W. W. Valpy has left Shang- hai for England, where he proposes
to settle down near Police's Bar.
He has been resident la China for 32 years, Arsi in Hongkong and lat Lerly in Shanghel, and before that hej was for ten years in the Federated, Malay States. His first railway ap- pointment, however, was in Pura- guay, in 1889, when he worked on the extension of the Paraguay Central Railway, the

which were Messrs. Perry Culbill de Lungo & Co. Receiving an appointment on The Federated Malay Statca Govern- left Parn- ment Railways, Mr. Valpy lef Kuny shortly after his arrival there, and in ABU9, after the

of the Prai-Bukit Mutalane section, was stationed at Goping as acting
district engineer. In 1000 he joined the min- Ing firm of Osberne & Chappell and constructed the hydraulic supply for their Goping mines. In 1905 he was sent out by the Crown Agents for the survey of the Kowloon Canton Rail- way and was transferred thence to the Shanghal-Nanking Railway to act for Mr. Clear when that officer wenti home on leave in 1909.
In 1911 Mr. Valpy was transferred to the Canton-Hankow Railway and went through the revolution that year in Hankow and carried out subse- quent extensive survey work in Ho- peh and Hunan. Transferred to the Pachi section, he completed 40 miles of construction, including the Pach! river bridge, which is 1,440 feet long and the largest bridge on the line. In 1010 he was appointed district en- gineer at Changsha, and eight
