I was favoured on the 20th with your letter of

19th instant, informing me that His Excellency tile Governor

had been pleased to appoint me a member of a Committee of

Enquiry into the Expenditure of the Colony, and that His

Honour the Chief Justice, who will be the Chairman of the

Committee, will communicate with me regarding the date on

which the Committee will begin its enquiry.

#

From this morning's "Daily Press' I observe that

it is probable there will be some change in the personnel

of the Commission from that mentioned by His Excellency the

Governor in the Legislative Council on 2nd ultimo.

Before replying to your letter I should be much

obliged if you would kindly inform me of the names of the

Members appointed, and of whom the Committee in question

will consist.

I have C. >

(Signed) T. H. Whitehead.

Hon: G. T. M. O'Brien, C.M. G.

Colonial Secretary.
