Colonial Surgeon's Office,

Nestorla, June 10th 1856.

Sir,

Many serving under the Colonial Government have of late had their salaries increased.

I beg to solicit your attention to the claims of the Colonial Surgeon and the resident Apothecary of the Government Hospital for some such boon. The latter gentleman has been fortunate enough to meet with His Excellency the Governor's kind consideration, but the former, I know, has been deprived of that improvement.

I remain,

Sir,

Your obedient servant,

[Signature not clear]

The Hon'ble.

Colonial Secretary,
