To the Editor of the "NortH-Cuixa Datty News."
S1r,—Ini your obituary notice of today's issue, I_ notice you state that the late Mr. F. Me-Grath assisted to establish the first modern tannery in the Orient.
For your information I wish to point out that the first modern tannery erected in the Orient was erected by the late Mr. R. Carter in Tientsin 2 years ago and the second, viz:—the Shanghai, and third the. Lungwha, by the same gentlenian many years ago. The late Mr. R. J. Carter was the first European to introduce and teach the Chinese people the method of tanning.
Apologizing for the space and enclosing my card, I am, ete., Cc. Cc.
