Chief Sterekeeper's Office,

Kowloon 1st. July, 1916,

I have the honour to report that the Asbestos

Cement Corrugated Sheets supplied for the extension of Running Shed (Indent 115(173) of 9/12/14) were received in a badly damaged condition.

The cases were intact and showed no sign of rough usage but about 94% of the contents were broken or cracked. The few sheets which arrived unbroken have to

sheets broken.

I might add that when at Shumchun yesterday I noticed that the Chinese Section Station building was being roof- -ed with Lammit Sheeting. I went to the godown and saw a large number of sheets which had been unpacked.

The sheets appeared to be somewhat thinner than those suppli- -ed to us but more uniform in thickness. I brought back a sample and have handed it to the Engineer of Way & Works for comparison.

I have etc., (Sd.) Geo. A. Walker,

Chief Storekeeper.
