It will be seen that delivery was to take

place in 60 days from the 8th. October or, say, by the 8th.

December, but apparently the first of the material was not

delivered until about the 2o.1.10 (the B/L. is dated 24.1.10)

or say 6 weeks after the stipulated date.

With regard to the part which I took in

the matter, Mr. Waring wrote to me on the 29th. September

stating that it had been found desirable to make certain

modifications in the design sent from Hongkong as regarded the

ironwork for the cornice at the top of the building and he

tenderers would not offor the shortest time for delivery.

I replied on the 4th. October and EREXEEtX

pointed out certain objections to the proposed modifications.

As regarded delivery, I seid it would suffice if the first-

-floor ironwork and the columns could be despatched at an early

date, a longer period being allowed for the ironwork of the

roof. I added that I had been prevented from replying to his

letter earlier on account of travelling and that I would

probably not be in London before the beginning of Yovenber. I

did not suggest that any matter should be delayed or postponed

for discussion with me.

Kr. Waring next wrote to me on the 25th.

October, enclosing a copy of a letter from the Contractors

(The Hormehay Co.) which I herewith forward, as it has some

bearing on the matter. He stated that it was not important

that the outstanding questions in connection with the roof

"which you desired ækkaili should remain in abeyance until your

"arrival in London early next month" should be settled at the

earliest possible date and he would be glad to hear when he might
