Brown therein states. In!

Chater admitted to me

that Mr Brown had done

good service in connection with the work and he did

not think, in so

far

as the

Cot-holders are concerned,

that there would be

any

objection to his being

allowed some

remuneration.

It is impossible for me to say what would be

a reasonable amount,

supposing any

284

to be given,

for Mr Brown to receive,

as Your Lordship will see this is left by him an open question.

Mr Brown suggests that the opinion of some eminent professional adviser be

asked on the point, and, should Your Lordship consider it necessary,

Sir John Coode might be consulted.

I have the honour to be,

My Lord,

Your Lordship's Most Obedient humble Servant,

J. Remington
