The certificate reads as follows have carefully examined a speci-wen of bleached China Grass, which, I understand, was prepared by patented process invented by Mr. McGregor Suith, [have compared it with the raw fibre, and am of opinion that for all practical purposes its strength has not been impaired by the process to which it has been subjected. I have mind series of analytical tests and am quite unable to trace the presence of chemical substance."
