Sir,
It is desired to place on record my appreciation of the valuable assistance rendered to the Fire Brigade by the Boy Scouts on the occasion of the distrous fire at the Wing On Godown premises which occured on the 22nd September 1948.
All members concerned displayed great courage and endurance in face of unaccustomed danger throughout the Period they were engaged at the fire.
I would be glad if this could be conveyed to all concerned.
I am, Sir,
Yours faithfully,
