In continuation of my Despatch No.--

156 of 11th. instant, I have the honour to inform you that

the Chief Justice on receipt of my letter which formed an

enclosure to that Despatch requested that a Meeting of the

Executive Council should be surmoned at which he should be

present. He was accordingly invited to attend the meeting

of Council which was held on Monday the 22nd. instant.

2.

His Honour then explained that he

had not intended to convey that I had in any way mis-

-represented to Your Lordship the advice he had given to

the Council. What I had said in my Despatch was strictly

accurate, and the object of the Memorandum which he had

desired me to transmit was to correct a misapprehension

which he thought existed in Your Lordship's mind from the

terms
