In reply to your letter (7444/04/C.S.0.) of the 15th. instant enclosing certain charges against me, I have the "
honour to say that I have to admit the charges made against me.
My only excuse for my conduct is that I have lately had con-
-siderable family troubles to contend with and I unfortunately
gave way to drink. I now see my felly and can only implore
forgiveness and promise that if it is granted I will not give
way again.
Hon. F. H. May,
Colonial Secretary.
(Sa.) Evan Dougherty.
