"your conveyance from that Port to

China"

The following Colonial public servants proceeded in the "Hearsay" vessel, having been given to understand that it was desirable they should reach China in that manner without delay, viz;

The Colonial Secretary. The Colonial Treasurer.

The Registrar of the Supreme Court

The Auditor.

And the Chief Justice came on in a private ship, only because there was not room for him, as I informed Your Lordship by despatch No: 3 of 11th April, 1841.

As I am persuaded that Captain Maitland considered himself acting strictly in accordance with directions conveyed from England through Sir George Arthur, I shall feel much indebted by Your Lordship being pleased to cause the total amount to be disbursed to the Admiralty to Captain Maitland's account, and charged in any way Your Lordship may deem most proper.

I have the honor to be, With the highest respect, Your Lordship's,

Most Obedient,

Humble Servant.
