Dear Looker,

With reference to our conversation on Saturday the

officer Administering the Government agrees that the libel case

should be settled on the condition that an apology, in form

approved by the Government, is published in the press, and

that each side you pays its own costs,

Mr.Bevern wishes to leave the question of hamil ton's

costs over until the Governor returns.

Yours sincerely,

8d/- M.Fletcher,

H.W.Looker Esq.
