My Lord,
With reference to Your Lordship's
Despatches Nos. 163 and 274 of the 19th. of last August
and the 15th. ultimo respectively, I have the honour to
enclose a copy of some notes by Mr. E. A. Hewett, dated
the 9th. ultimo on the proposal put forward by the Harbour
Master that all native seamen should be signed on and off
ship's articles before the British Shipping Master and to
inform Your Lordship that upon the advice of Executive
Council, I have decided that it would be inadvisable to
give effect to this proposal at the present time.
ଝ
I have the honour to be,
My Lord,
Your Lordship's most obedient,
humble servent,
Hangars
Governor,&c • •
THE RIGHT HONOURABLE
THE EARL OF CREWE,
