The occasion, it was decided, should be marked by the establishment of a permanent memorial of an event at once so auspicious and so unique. The general public was accordingly invited to send in to the Committee any suggestions they might have to offer on the subject. In response to this invitation, fewer than twenty suggestions were received. These were duly considered by the Committee, which rejected all the suggestions except five, and these were referred to a Sub-Committee for consideration and report.
I enclose copies of the Report of the Sub-Committee with 6 spare copies.
From the enquiries of the Sub-Committee it became apparent that the most popular schemes were:
1. A Road round the Island.
2. A Hospital for Women and Children.
3. A scheme for obtaining nurses.
