No 190.

Sir,

336

Police Department, 20th July, 1872

In accordance with the instructions

contained in

your

letter No 438 of the

12th

Instant, I have the honor to

report that I forthwith communicated

its contents to Mr Quin.

I have also informed him of the

letter No 160 of this

day's date.

Mr Quin having

replied to

the charges contained

in the first named letter, I have the

The Honorable

Cecil @ Smith

Acting Colonial Secretary,

Corrected version in HTML format as per the instructions: 1. Corrected "it's" to "its" as "it's" is a contraction of "it is". 2. Corrected "N:160" to "No 160" as "No" is the standard abbreviation for "Number". 3. Corrected "puport" to "day's" assuming it was a typo, but "day's" was already present, so it seems "puport" is an error and should be another word, possibly "date" or it is referring to "day's date" which is already there, hence assuming it is an OCR error for "day's". 4. Added "replied to" as it seems to be a missing word to make the sentence grammatically correct. 5. Corrected "Mav" to no word as it seems to be an incomplete or incorrect word, and "me the" doesn't make sense in this context. 6. Corrected "Aenerable" to "Honorable" as it is a more plausible title for "Cecil @ Smith". 7. Corrected "@" to no correction as it might be an OCR error for "Cecil Smith", assuming "@" is an error for a space or a part of a name, but without further context, left "Cecil @ Smith" as is, but ideally, it should be "Cecil Smith".
