The Local Office of Furniture was responsible.

Presumably

The Government agreed to allow this.

After some correspondence (1860) they made a general rule, but in this case, they made an exception and allowed it under the peculiar circumstances of the case.

Evidently, he wants the Colony to alter its regulations. He suggests that the Colonial Regulations should be altered.

He also suggests the appointment of a Board to look into the matter of furniture. A few looms are absolutely necessary for farming purposes.

The fact that the Governor's salary was £3000 a year (sterling) cannot be compared to the £5000 they made a special foreign grant to the wife of Johnson. It was decided that his successor should take the furniture at a valuation. Sir R. Macdonnell and Sir A. Robinson have been in personal communication on the subject, and the latter proposes £400.

Sir Q. M., however, states the circumstances in which Sir R. Poland made the decision of the Board of Enquiry, and in support of that view, he cites several defaults.
