    DescriptionConsulting engineers' report on the construction of the SS FEDERAL begins "Mr. Menzies did not return to the office until Friday last and has been busy with arrears. We now take the first opportunity to reply to the letter you put into our hand. We do not know who is the writer of the letter, but his knowledge of iron shipbuilding must be very limited, as we consider the workmanship of this steamer a fair sample of a cargo carrying boat."
