Verandah Fiers and North West wall of the Sanitarium have been blown down. It will be advisable to take down the remainder of this Building at once, and when re-erected to build up to the First Floor in stone, the site is so exposed that I fear otherwise it will be impossible to insure the safety of the Building during another Typhoon.
The glass in two of the Dials of the Clock Tower is completely smashed. Mr Falconer however reports the clock uninjured. The Entrance Gates of the Protestant Cemetery have been blown down and the windows of the Mortuary Chapel blown in, many Trees have also been blown down.
At Fotfulum the Workmen's Huts have all been blown down, and the temporary quarters provided for European Prisoners destroyed. The Police Station also has been much damaged.
Several Land Slips have latterly taken place the worst being in the neighbourhood of the Western Gap, resulting in the loss of several lives. The repairs to Buildings are being executed under Report and Estimate 7029 of 1867 sanctioned immediately after the Typhoon of 8th September. I have the honor to ask for authority "ad Interim" to expend a further sum of $3,000 on repairs which should not be allowed to stand over.
The accompanying Estimate represents the repairs. I think the repairs to Buildings may properly be charged to maintenance of next year as intended to thoroughly overhaul the different Police Stations and other Buildings.
