of Trade), and Commander Hole interviewed three

candidates, viz: Messrs. D. Kossick, W.B. Slater and J.

Rundle, (particulars of whose qualifications and

experience are attached) who have not previously held

appointments in the Colonial Service. All three are

recommended as suitable for the appointment in the order

in which their names appear. Mr. D. Kossick whose

references are satisfactory, has now been passed as

physically fit to undertake the duties of the appointment,

subject to slight dental treatment, and it is proposed to

provisionally select him for the one vacancy to be filled

at present and to arrange, in conjunction with the Board

of Trade, for him to undergo the customary course of

instruction.

3. We enclose a draft of a Bond which, subject to

the approval of the Secretary of State, we propose to enter

into with Mr. Kossick on his provisional selection in

respect of the allowances etc., to be paid in connection

with the course of instruction with the Board of Trade.

4. We should be glad to learn as soon as possible

whether the Secretary of State agrees to the provisional

selection of Mr. Kossick and whether the terms of the

draft Bond are approved.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient servant,

for Crown Agents.
