# The establishment, however, of a

Lighthouse on Waglan Island by the Chinese Authori-

ties will render D'Aguilar Light unnecessary. I would

recommend its being removed to Green Island, where, being

a long distance light, it would "cut in" with the Gap

Rock light, and a vessel after getting hold of the

latter would have a leading light right up to the fer-

bour. If this change were made, I would further recom-

mend the present Greensland Light being placed at Ca-

pe Collinson, and the Cape Collinson Light, with a

slight modificatim,placed as a liarbour Light on Kow-

loon Point. These changes would, I think, be a great im-

provement to the Lighting of HongKong.
