This is to certify that Mr. John Wattie has been in our service since his boyhood, first in our Liverpool Office, and later as General Assistant in Hongkong, a total period
of seventeen years.
We have always found him honest, trustworthy, and obliging, and have the fullest confidence in recommending
him to anyone requiring his services. He leaves us to take
up a Government position.
