My Lord
I venture to enquire whether any information has
lately been received at the Colonial Office relative to
my nephew George Stephen Butler, who for several years has
held a Government appointment at Lytton in British Columbia.
His last letter was dated in June 1865, and being his nearest
surviving relative, I am under considerable anxiety on his account
and shall feel very much obliged by any reply Your Lordship may
have it in your power to send to this Letter.
have it in your power to send to this Letter.
I may add that my nephew served in the Crimea as
Lieutenant in the 17th Foot.
I have the honor to be
My Lord
Your Lordship's most
obedient humble Servant
