With reference to the telegraphic

correspondence noted in the margin, I have the honour to

transmit a copy of the letter in which Mr. H. N. Mody

asked that permission might be obtained for his presenta-

tion to the Colony of a Statue of Her Royal Highness the

Princess of Wales together with a plan shewing the position
