CE 7 Separate 9765 Pong cong 178 Erbs Governor Bonham 22. Faby $1050 Mr. Ellist 2. Feb 37/50 letter I duly received your letter of the 29th of last month. Mr. Merival, Mr Hawes, Carl Grey & Co. have written to me on the 5th of September last explaining the grounds on which you have come to the conclusion that the office of Colonial Treasurer could not be dispensed with. This entirely accords with the opinion which has been formed by myself and the L. Or of the Treasury.
