To the Editor of the "Nortn-Cuina Datny News."
Sir,—Permit me to add to the suggestions regarding a memorial to be erected to the late Capt lant.
The Mok Chien Shan (known to foreigners as the Pyramid) peak would be quite suitable if it is simply to be a small stone monument.
The area available at the top of the pyramid is about 400 sq. ft., or 20 ft. by 20 ft.
There are three smaller peaks a little to the north, the No Sang Shan peak having the largest area, of say about 1,200 sq. ft. or 30 ft. by 40 ft.
These can all be reached from the base in about 15 to 20 minutes, and the trails leading to them could be improved at little cost.
To anyone who might think it would be better to carve some figures on the face of these hills, I might say that. these hills are almost perpendicular whilst the rock is of soft sandstone.
Blue stone can be procured in the vicinity, and would be cheaper than concrete.
Trusting this will be of assistance to a committee when formed.
I am. ete., Tchang, April 18.
