as regards the sea wall appears to be as follows:-
(a) Cost of vertical
sea wall and dredging.
(b) Compensation to Lam Woo
for cancellation of
$1,609,390
rubble mound wall
contract
(c) Little,Adams & Wood's
fees in respect of
rubble mound wall
design
(a) Less amount of
contract for rubble
mound wall and two
concrete wharves.
100,000
38.000
1,747,390

$1,017,703.
Mr. Kwik also claims compensation in respect of ten
months delay caused by the alteration of design and
Mr. Fletcher admitted liability in respect of eight
months delay. No estimate seems, however, to have
made of what the amount of such compensation should
be, and no suggestion seems to have been made as to
how it should be computed. The actual figures given
above would also have to be checked and verified.
For example, Mr. Kwik may not have actually paid of
finally credited Lam Woo with anything like $100,000.
Again it is very probable that the original estimate
for the rubble mound wall would have been exceeded.
Unless, however, the cost of the rubble mound wall was
greatly underestimated the additional expense incurred
