I have the honour to acknowledge
Mr. Lyttelton's Circular Despatch of the 29th. November,
1905, transmitting the suggestion of Garter Sir Alfred
Scott-Gatty that this Colony should make formal applica-
-tion for a Coat of Arms.

Before further considering this
suggestion I should be obliged if I could be informed as
to which of the Crown Colonies have already Coats of Arms,
of what they consist and when and in what circumstances
they were granted by the Sovereign.
I have the honour to be,
My Lord,
Your Lordship's most obedient
humble servant,
THE RIGHT HONOURABLE
THE EARL OF ELGIN, K.G• 、
