Sir,

I am directed to transmit to you the enclosed table which has been compiled from the sheets lettered 'E' of the Colonial Blue Book.

2. I have been given to understand that these figures do not represent the total expenditure incurred by the Military Authorities in this Colony, but only sums paid locally and passed through the accounts of the District Paymaster. I shall, therefore, be much obliged if you will be good enough to supply me with corrected figures giving the full totals. If these figures are not available locally, His Excellency the Governor will be obliged if they can be obtained from the War Office in London.

Captain Hart-Synnot, D.S.O.,

General Staff.

I am,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

(signed) F. H. May

Colonial Secretary.
