I have the honour to transmit for your consi-
deration the enclosed copy of a letter from the Acting Direct-
or of Public Works, recommending the appointment of a Principal
Land Surveyor to conduct the work of the Land Branch in his
Department.
2. I agree with Mr. Chatham that the appointment
of such an officer is necessary, and, should you concur in that
opinion, I shall be glad if you will be good enough to consult
the Crown Agents with a view to selecting a suitable candidate.
3. The salary suggested by Mr. Chatham is $200
month with exchange compensation, but it may be necessary to
offer better terms, and in that case I leave the matter open
for your decision.
4. I enclose in duplicate a paper of particu-
A
lars concerning this post.
