language, but he deserves

much credit for the manner in which he acted in concert with the

Colonial Secretary and in his administration of the force. He has brought to bear a

discerning eye

in devising

Measures

commendable

for what he has

believed would advance the

interests of the Colony. I say this

much because, if

I may

be frank, men often receive

more knocks

over the knuckles than soft words.

I would suggest

that the opportunity

might be taken for answering

However much the judgment of the

Governor might have been warped by the

attacks made on him, the manner in which he

dealt with the

accident is

disgraceful; and it seems to me

to afford & repel, that despite all that has been said & done, the Unofficial

Members of the

Committee §227/1 have much to

acknowledge, and lay

that I have

aroused

some head with great pleasure, the Committee being headed by the Honourable Hugh Gibb, which seems to me to be creditable to him (the Honourable) and to the non-official Members of the

Committee.
