must have known I would suffer
no local cement to be used on the

have been, in his opinion, due solely
to the fact that the later tests did
not come up to the standard of the earlier ones.
Apart from this the
falsification of tests by Mr Orange would have been difficult, inasmuch
as the briquettes
were sometimes tested
by myself personally at very irregular periods
on arrival at the works without
previous notice to the Resident Engineer.
I am satisfied that Mr. Orange has not been prompted by any unworthy motive in this matter. I
am of opinion that he has been
unfortunate
and unwise
in personally interesting himself, writing home for clinker for his
friends and thus placing himself in the position of having his acts misconstrued. If he wanted to put
his friends
in the way of making
experiments with cement clinker, he should have simply furnished them with the address of clinker maker in England, and left Mr Chater to procure the material for himself without his (Mr Orange's) assistance.
