may be further investigated.

In spite of the statement, contained in
Messrs. Strauss & Company's letter, that for some time
past these assays have proved inaccurate, only one other
complaint, dated 29th January, 1935, has reached this
Goverment since 1927. During 1934 alone 189 samples
of tin were analysed in the Government Laboratory.
4.
The sample regarding which complaint is
now made was analysed on 2nd January, 1934, and since
tin samples are retained only for twelve months it is
not possible at this date to make a confirmatory analysis.
It would assist investigation if any future complaints
could be brought to the notice of this Government with
the least possible delay.

I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient, humble servant,

Governor, &c.
