As requested in Your Lordship's
Despatch No. 74 of the 15th. ultimo, I have the honour to
forward herewith a copy of Mr. G. W. Eves's Agreement.
2.
I decided that as Mr. Ives was
called upon to resign owing to dissatisfaction with his
work, his engagement could not be said to have been
"satisfactorily terminated" and he was not therefore
entitled to half salary on the voyage to England under
Clause 5 of the Agreement, but that he was entitled to a
free passage under Clause 11. Instructions were issued to
the Chief Resident Engineer to pay the passage but reached
him too late to make the arrangement as Mr. Eves had
already left the Colony.
RIGHT HONOURABLE
THE EARL OF CREVE,
80...

I have the honour to be,
My Lord,
Your Lordship's most obedient, humble servant,
Mugard
Governor,&c..
