For

Walton Breck, Rath Liverpool.

2ve July 1890.

I respectfully beg to request that you may be pleased to give favourable consideration to this application for the appointment of Assistant Surveyor (7th Class) to the Board of Trade, Hong Kong.

Having had nearly 14 years' experience in the Engineering profession, which includes an apprenticeship at the Barrow Shipbuilding Co. (now the Naval Construction and Armament Works) and at the expiration of that time, worked for 2 years as Engineering Draughtsman for Messrs Laird, Barrow Bros., Birkenhead & Messrs Jones, & Sons, Engineers, Liverpool. I have also served at sea as a Junior Engineer in the capacity of 4th Engineer, in the employ of Messrs Lamport & Holt's "Brazil" steamers & Mr Alfred Holt's "D'Elina" steamers for 4 years, and obtained a First Class Certificate from the Board of Trade.

I was at Krivcastle for 10 months and left the employ of the latter to work for Messrs Lowe's Engineering Co. at Birkenhead, and subsequently for Messrs C. H. Fawcett, Denny Scott & Co., Bag.

I have been in the service of Messrs Richardsons, Westgarth & Co., Engineers, Middlesbrough, making drawings of work outside of the works, and remained in that employ.
