between the dredger, working off YOU NEED A PIANO?

Kowloon Point, and, the four buoys marked with red flags laid to the Westward of her. The three East. ern buoys of this tier support the dredger's head-chain and constitute a grave danger to craft attempt. ing to pass between them. The dredger's head cable is further supported between the most west- ern buoy and the next buoy to the eastward of it and constitütea a danger to the propellers of craft attempting to pass between these two buoys.

Should any craft attempt to pass between the dredger and the western buoy of the tier and foul the suspended head-chain there is a great probability of the chain falling to the bottom and frac- turing the telegraph'and telephone cables in the cable reserve.
