4. The appointment of tunnel overseer included in the staff list prepared by the Consulting Engineers is intended to be filled by Mr Cooke, who has already been at work in the Colony. It was in fact not intended that all the appointments on the list should be filled by men to be newly sent out from this country. This we understand has already been explained to Mr Eves; and we have now arranged with the Consulting Engineers that no further appointments should be made in this country till he reports his requirements.

I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your Obedient Servant,
(Sd.) P. Ezechiel,
for Crown Agents.
