Sir,

Survey 59.

Surveyor General's Office,

No. 38

Victoria, 28th March 1855.

Sir,

I have the honor to submit Annual Report upon Public Works' progress during the past year.

Buildings.

Government House, contrary to my expectation, is not yet complete, notwithstanding I have made every feasible exertion to expedite the work; the Contractor and his securities received notice that the Bond would be enforced if more effective progress not made; but they complained that it was impossible to obtain some materials, purchases out or at exorbitant prices.

The Honble W. T. Mercer,

Colonial Secretary.
