40 feet high and cannot be seen in thick weather till one is right upon it.

We should be glad if you were to possess Admiralty Chart 2721 and 2681 for reference. We have them here, but to send them to you would, we think, be an act of superfluity.

For the present we must leave the matter thus in your kind hands being assured that you will do your best to assist us in adding this small, but immensely valuable, asset to the resources of the Empire.

After what we have written before there is no necessity for us to urge that the matter be taken up as speedily as possible. At any rate, we shall hold what we have got till we can hold on to it no longer.

We thank you most sincerely in anticipation for undertaking the troublesome task which we feel sure our request will entail, and leaving the matter confidently in your kind hands for arrangement,

(Signed)

We are &c.,

Harry Kendall Carse-Newman,

T. Langton-Wilkinson.
