regarding the Scheme has, I fear, become an open secret and it

has had the effect amongst the gentlemen who had originally

agreed to take up Debentures of making them apathetic towards

the Scheme and the Public have also formed the opinion that the

Government has decided to withdraw its former proffered assist-

ance.

I have no alternative there fore but to ask that the matter

be referred to the Secretary of State with copies of the docu-

mente and correspondence which have parsed between the Government

of the Colony and myself (which are sent herewith and to

intimate to you that I am despatching a copy of this letter and

copies of the former letters and documents on the subject

direct to the same quarter with the hope that the admitted

desirability of making suitable provision for the housing of

the poorer classes at Home who are unable to help themselves

may be applied to similar olasses resident in this Colony and

that any Scheme which is designed for the furtherance of this

object should receive the cordial support of any Colonial

Government even to the extent of raking a free grant of land

and advancing to the Promoters money on easy terme for develop-

ment and construction, repayable gradually out of the rents

received from the tenants of the houses.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

(Sd.) 6. Montaque Ede

The Hon. Colonial Secretary.
