From: G.W.Hancock.

93 NK.

We have now rebuilt the engine.

Marston is fitting the fabric coupling, and we are now awaiting Butler's arrival with the steering column.

We beg to state that we were somewhat premature in our complaint about non arrival of wages. These arrived at noon to-day. The men were getting to the end of their resources, and had complained.

G.W.HANCOCK.
