75 Know Street,

Aberdeen, 31th December, 1890.

Referring to our Mr. Reid's interview with you the other day, we have considered very carefully Mr. Kampto's letter, and we are prepared to recommend a gentleman for the vacancy.

We refer to Mr. David Wood who has recently been appointed Commercial Chief at the Executing works of Barry, Henry & Co., which, as you know, is one of the largest concerns of the kind in Scotland; but of course the concern has now developed and the Hong Kong offer being tempting, Mr. Wood has no hesitation in declaring himself anxious for the situation.

Mr. Wood is 25 years of age, is strong, intelligent and thoughtful, and a man of resource. He is a capable bookkeeper, good penman, and ready correspondent. He has had four years' experience at the Rake Tree Foundry and seven years at the Albion Iron Works, and is now at least twelve months at Messrs. Peters & Co.

Through our connection with the Albion Iron Works and Barry, Henry & Co., the accounts of which concerns we have audited, Mr. Wood has had experience in checking men's time and he has taken particular interest in Costing. Besides, he is well read in the theory of Contractors and Builders' work, and he has on various occasions interested himself in all accounts of practical Engineering.
