With reference to your letter No 29 of the 10th

instant, enclosing a letter from Mr Solly relative to the

question of his leave of absence, I am directed to inform

you that His Excellency the Governar has been pleased to

reconsider the decision conveyed to you in my letter of the

11th instant and to allow Mr Solly to proceed on leave as soon

as the new officer, whose services the Postmaster General

hopes to secure in England, arrives to take over the Senior

Clerkship.

The Officer is expected not later than the 15th

of June. The length of the new leave of absence to be granted to Mr Solly will be communicated to you in due course.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient servant,

(Sa) F. H. May.

Ag. Colonial Secretary.

The Acting Postmaster General.
