From Messrs WILLIAM BEATTIE and SONS, Builders and

House Carpenters, Edinburgh.

EDINBURGH, 23 BREAD STREET, 25th February 1842.

It affords us much pleasure to have an opportunity of stating our opinions of Mr GEORGE STRACHAN, whose merits we have long had access of knowing, both from personal observation, and from having been in our employment for upwards of fourteen months. We do not hesitate to express our conviction from the know- ledge he has of the practical department of building, along with his architectural acquirements, he is well qualified to discharge with efficiency and success the important duties of his profession.
