It is more then probable that the Naval

Authorities at home were under the impression, when submitting their

A

claims that their instructions relative

to refunds had been made to embrace as well the transactions of the 1866 as

those of succeeding years; but such was not the case, as

I find that the payment of £ 37. 12. 2

made on the 10th June 1867 for the Shores of 1866 has not been

refunded. I have the hover to be.

My Lord.

Your Lordships mat obedient-

humble Servant,
