the erection of
"new" Harbour master's
office", the old one being absolutely unsafe. As regards the Civil Hospital, I am inclined to let Sir A. Kennedy defer as far as possible its cost out of revenue,
possible as the loan will have to meet Waterworks
and Lighthouses, having however on him the responsibility of his own recommendations I send a rough draft for consideration, it is perhaps the shortest way of his forming an opinion on the three despatches.

I concur with you in this matter
doubt _ the early part but concur
and
in with reference to par 3 of the letter -
whether it is made
in accordance with firm
Ken nedy
a licence
of spending & at commencement with the instructions
in force in financial regulations dated 1st
27th
L
for Cox.
The excess of assets over liabilities on the 31st December 1872 was
$181,942. deduct $19,000 for copper coinage not available leaves a sum of $162,000. So I think that, if Sir F. Kennedy feels sure he can
safely do so, he may
be allowed to
pay even as much as $50,000 out of revenue towards the hospital. Lord Kimberly recommended that $50,000 should be the available balance in Treasury.
RB2 I agree.
