An one ballot was opened, the name of the person nominated was at once recorded and his name posted on the wall, whilst the original ballot papers were again put into other boxes which were afterwards sealed up by the Provincial Judge himself. The Counting of the votes could not be com- plated until about seven o'clock in the evening.

Mr. Le Po-shum, formerly member of the late board of directors of the Company, secured 106 votes with shares amounting to 755,200; Mr. Wong Shiu-ping, formerly Vice president of the Company, secured 260 votes with shares amounting to 646,900;

On 24th August Mr. Chau His Fan, a licentiate of the Hongkong College of Medicios, was appointed to be Chinese Medi- cal Officer resident at the Tunnel North Face camp; and on the 14th November the Railway anthorities were granted permission to avail themselves of the Government Dispensary under Mr. Lau Lai, Chiness Medical Officer al Tai-po, for treatment of native employees on the section of the line near Tai-po.
