Kowloon Admiral Are intersected 2 by Canals, and it is evident from the marks on the Walls, houses, &c., that they are frequently under water, and indeed Mr. Jackson's Canal at low water I traverse the greater part of the City, and I can hardly doubt that the whole site must be at times under water.

The number of Boats on the hippoch and the Spring of the Rock fill the Bundges Bouts indicate that the Rise of Water must be considerable.

That this must tend to affect the health of the Inhabitants there can be little doubt, and the numerous open Spaces around that appear to have been once built upon indicate a reduction of the population of Manshow, and certainly give the impression of having seen better days.

I did not discover any site within the Aby at all suitable for building; or eligible as residences for Europeans; the most eligible grounds appeared to be suited for burial places, and indeed Coffins were to be seen.
