the work is one that the
Colony may be proud
of
both
from its
magnitude
and from the substantial and excellent manner in which
it is being carried out. I have
visited this work's frequently during last year, seeing a large
number of briquettes of
on each occasion
cement in the Resident
Engineer's Office waiting to be
tested. On the last occasion
I was accompanied
by Colonel now
General E. Forestier
Walker, RE, at that time the Commanding Royal Engineer,
who always took great interest
in the work. Should
any independent opinion
be required
on these works I would
suggest that this Officer who
is now in
England might be
applied to with advantage.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your Most Obedient Humble Servant,
Most.
