Sir,

We shall be much obliged if you will send us a cheque for the amount of our costs in the late suit against you. They are exceptionally light and as the larger portion consist of Counsel's fees for which we are responsible, and ought not longer to withhold, we must request a settlement at once.

Faithfully yours,

In reply to your letter of today's date asking for a few minutes interview with the Governor I am directed to point out to you that your memory has betrayed you into many inaccuracies respecting your oral communications with His Excellency that he finds himself compelled, with extreme regret, to decline any further oral communication with you.
