Lord Kimberley.
I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch №116 of the 28th of September recommending an increase of $500 to the salary of our Assistant Health Officer.
I will not object to Dr. Adams being allowed to receive this additional sum as a personal allowance on his salary for the present, but it must be distinctly understood that this grant is sanctioned solely in consideration of the extra-labour inflicted on Dr. Adams in connection with the inspection of Immigrants.
