I am aware that at times it is found difficult in New Settlements to procure parties properly qualified to act in the Commission of the Peace and having for a considerable period acted in this capacity here, it would be a source of much satisfaction to me, were I permitted an opportunity of making myself useful, in this respect, in the District in which I might create myself.
