My Lord,
In a separate despatch of this date I
have had much pleasure in reporting to Your Lordship
that Mr Mody has accepted the revised designs for the
University including a very large increase in the
accomodation provided, together with separate houses
for the Principal and Professors, and the laying out
of the grounds which include the leveling of a large
playing field supported by a high retaining wall.
The cost of these great improvements as I reported
in that despatch nearly doubles the original promise
made by Mr Mody, and I have little doubt that they
will cost considerably more than the estimate.

On April the 28th last I had the
e Right Honourable
privilege of laying the foundation stone of a new
building for the Seaman's Institute, which Mr Mody
