Kong to leave it to Ad Rawlinson to decide what articles should be sent out, I requested Mr Bird to furnish the Crown Agents with Specification and drawings of the articles approved of by Mr Rawlinson
To comply with my request Ms Bird points
out that he will have
له
to come to and remain in
London for a fortnight, and asks that a portion, at least, of his expenses mayf be defrayed by the Colony, Mr Bird being on leave
of absence his request appears four and reasonable.
The
and

The Crown Agents think that Mr Rawlinson's offer to find office room and instruments for Mr Bird should be accepted and/ that whilst engaged in preparing these Specifications
and Dr.
Drawings and visiting proposed the Water
As

expenses such as Railway and Cab Fares.
I have the honor to be
Set,
You most obedient Servent. M. Jerzienn
