Your saving No. 622 of the 31st May.
C.D. & W. Scheme D. 1243. Piers in the
new Territories.
Before further consideration can be given to the question of maintaining a survey party in connection with this scheme, I should be grateful for confirmation that the amount applied for is
$44,334 (£2770.17.6) only and not £5,000 as suggested in your paragraph 2.
This information is required as your present proposal will necessitate the preparation of an entirely new scheme.

SECER.
