Under these circumstances he applied to the Lieutenant Governor, and the Lieutenant Governor with the consent of the Commanding Royal Engineer has appointed a Captain of that Corps to assist the Surveyor General at a remuneration of $4 a day.

We have the honor to be,
Your obedient humble servants,
