General of Netherlands India.
Mr. Groeneveld
was
informed
that I had communicated with
Your Lordship on the subject,
and ...
A.
was
aware that I could
not approve of his proposal until
reply reached me. The pecuniary loss sustained by his Government must be large, but this Government
is
in no
way responsible for it.
I enclose the papers
referred to
in this Despatch,
and trust that Your Lordship will approve of my
Vide Schedule
of Enclosure
proceedings.
I have the honour to be,
My Lord,
Your Lordship's most obedient humble servant,
H. E. Administrator.
P.S. In order that the whole correspondence
which has passed may
be in Your Lordship's
hands I transmit Copies of a letter
received
from Mr. Groeneveldt and of the reply made to him, before any active step had apparently been taken to collect Emigrants.
