I have the honor to transmit to you for your information a copy
of a letter which has been addressed to me by
Mr. J. Scott Tucker, on
behalf of the
British Columbia Graving Dock Company, representing the
desirability of constructing a
Hydraulic Hydraulic Lift at
Vancouver's Island
and enquiring what aid Her Majesty's government would be disposed to
grant towards the completion of such an undertaking together with a
copy of the answer which has been returned to
Mr. Tucker by my
direction.
I also transmit copies of a Correspondence with the Admiralty on
the subject.
