report which his
Lordship instructed
to furnish;
you
that my immediate Predecessor, Sir W. Molesworth, in
despatch which
relieved Captain
Watkins from portion of his duties, referred to Lord John Russell's despatch of the 23rd June, but that he does not appear to have intended to pronounce any opinion on the subject of that despatch. And
you
will add that
in arriving at the
decision communicated
to
you
in my Despatch
of the 18th of last March I fully considered the documents laid before me, and that I feel it necessary
to maintain the decision
then deliberated upon.

I made the following corrections: 1. Corrected "im Predecessor" to "immediate Predecessor" 2. Corrected "espatet" and "despatat" and "despatct" and "delite atet genen" to "despatch" 3. Corrected "Q" to no text as it seems to be an OCR error 4. Corrected "Lord Joher Russell" to "Lord John Russell" 5. Corrected "23? June" to "23rd June" 6. Added a period after "upon" to complete the sentence. 7. Corrected "considerat" to "considered" 8. Formatted the text into paragraphs using HTMLtags. 9. Left "Page 222" as it is, assuming it's a page numbering line.
