Sir,

267

No. 28-A, Des Voeux Road Central,

Hongkong, 19th. October, 1915.

Kowloon Bay Reclamation.

I have the honour to acknowledge receipt of your letter of the 14th. instantilo. 982 enumerating the modifications agreed to by the

Government in respect of the terms contained in your letter No. 633 and in reply thereto I am instructed to say that the Promoters are quite agreeable to accept the same.

With regard to the cross streets mentioned in your letter un- -der reply the promoters will ultimately have to provide same in the Tarious lots, but, as they have not decided at present the points on

which these streets should lie which will be suitable to their purposes.

they will defer in submitting you a plan showing these subdivisions for your approval to a future date.

In the meantime I think we are now in a position to have the agreement draw up embodying all the terms agreed to for signature and I shall be glad to receive from you a draft thereon for my clients'

approval.

The promoters also suggest that if the Secretary of State for the Colonies actions the scheme he will be requested to notify the Government of his consent by wire and that the promoters will be very! pleased to reimburse the Government of the expenses incurred thereby.

I have etc.,

(Sd.)

The Honourable

Director of Public Works.

S. W. Tso.
