the Colony should exercise a discretionary power in such matters; and, when he considers a complaint to be frivolous, he should decline to forward it, the officer in that case having, of course, the power to appeal direct to you, if he thinks fit to do so, and is prepared to take the consequences of that step in the event of its being considered serious.
It appears to me that the desire to appeal on every occasion, when a subordinate cannot get his way, would be thus very much lessened in the interests of the service. It is clearly the duty of persons appealing to you to record their grievance in a single letter, in which their whole case is carefully and clearly summarized.
