Provision will be made in the

Estimates for next year for the supply of single desks to

a certain number of class-rooms and similar provision will

be made in succeeding years till all class-rooms are so

provided.

The result will be a decrease in

the number of scholars who can be accommodated and, if

fees are not raised, a decrease in revenue. I am satisfied,

however, that there is undesirable overcrowding of class-

-rooms which must be prejudicial to education as well as to

health, and I have it under consideration whether more

immediate steps should not be taken to effect an improve-

-ment in this matter.

The report of the Examiners is on

e

the whole satisfactory, and I was much pleased with the

general condition and efficiency of the School when I made

my first personal inspection in January last.

I have the honour to be,

My Lord,

Your Lordship's most obedient,

humble servant,

Bangars

Governor, &C..
