Until the middle of August, when the state of his health required a change of air, and he was obliged to proceed on Medical Certificate to England, but unfortunately only reached Ceylon, where he died. Previous to the intelligence of the death of Mr Morgan, Mr Chapman had charge of the office and gave much satisfaction. After the receipt of intelligence of Mr Morgan's death, the acting Appointment was transferred to Mr. Reinhard.
During the period of Mr. Morgan's services in the office, I regret to say, his health was so bad [it was] impossible for him to give that attention to which it necessarily demanded, and he was reluctantly compelled to call in the assistance of some of his brother officers from time to time — assistance, however, which though willingly given, was manifestly insufficient. A variety of arrears accumulated consequent upon the repeated changes, and the business of Mr. Morgan's. This arrear necessarily interfered much with my own duties, and it was with the utmost difficulty [that] I could comply with the requirements of His Excellency the Governor, and others; for the various documents required by the service.
The duties required by the holding of the office of the Clerk of Deed Registry and Accountant are not like those of a clerk in other offices; in this office they are of a peculiar and miscellaneous character, and it required both diligent care and the closest application on the part of Mr. Reinhard to bring the office again into proper working order, and I have the greatest satisfaction in thus giving him every praise for his conduct, which he richly deserves.
