The drafts at folio 2's are fine. However, Sir W. Jackson is at present absent from Gibraltar: inther than address the dispatel to the Acting Govenor I suggest we hold the whole thing up for a couple of

weeks so that the can

address it to the Governor proper. Although I am are it is perfectly logical and constitutional, it somehow doesn't seem night to send the dispatch to the deputy Governor when he is Acting Governor instructing him to appoint himself as Acting Govenor if the Governor (who in this case must pesually & include the Deputy Governor acting as Acting Governor-ie.

is, hiimself again) is unable to act as Governor.
