trude Brookes, Nursing Sister in the Government Civil Hospital,

date on the ground of private affairs.
I append a copy of a telegram which I sent to
you on the 30th.ultimo, and I request that a successor to Miss Brookes may be engaged by the Crown Agents on the terms men- tioned in the enclosed paper of particulars, and that arrange- ments may be made for her departure for this Colony at the earliest possible date.
