Her Majesty's leave intended, as the Governor's dispatch of the 28th ult. lost, but this despatch is only dated on the 12th of that month I have accounted for the delay.
For the last eighteen months the ship "Salang" has been detained. The whole period granted to him was two years & a half. The Agent would rest assured that everything might be done.
Mr Barnard May embarked: but I know nothing of when he sailed. But the hurry was great. Surely 14 days might be allowed for the chance of shipping.
I can ascertain nothing about the Governor's movements. Possibly the letter covers this.
My dispatch tells that if he has not returned we should consider the Office as vacant & proceed to fill it.
