We have to acknowledge your letter No.
1988/1913 of the 5th. instant from which we understand that
His Excellency the Governor declines to extend the time for
complying with the conditions specified in the Crown
Solicitor's letter to us of the 28th. July, 1917, and that
the agreement enclosed in your letter of 10th, July, 1914, is therefore rescinded and cancelled as from the 29th January.
On behalf of our clients we must protest in
the strongest possible manner against the notion of the
Government in refusing to grant an extension.
We have already pointed out that the delay
which has arisen has been entirely due to conditions arising
out of the War, which have practically put a stop to all
undertakings of an engineering kind.
We are reporting this matter to our clients
in England and advising them to apply to the Secretary of
State for the Colonies for a reversal of His Excellency's
decision.
We have etc.,
(8d.) Demmys & Bowley.
The Hon. The Colonial Secretary.
