Sir Henry Blake's long and distinguished

services as Colonial Governor are too well known

to Tour Majesty to make it necessary for thank

to specify the grounds on which he is now

recommended for the important post of Governor

of Ceylon. In view of Sir Henry Blaze's age, over

30 years, it is proposed that the term of Office

in Ceylon should be limited to three years, and he

is aware that his term will be so limited

should Your Majesty bo pleased to a prove

sent submission. The limitation will not however

be made publicly known.
