Admiralty are interested as bearing on the Arsenal Yard,

4.

The third objection which I wish to raise in

connection with the whole scheme of Reclamation, is that

I am forwarding copies of this correspondence to the

Commander in Chief for the consideration of the Admiralty.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your Excellency's obedient Servant,

(Sgd) C.G. Robinson.

Commodore.
