I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch No. 61
of the
15 June and to convey to you Her Majesty's Gracious Confirmation
and allowance of the
British Columbia Ordinance No. 8 of
1868 entitled
"An Ordinance authorizing the Sale of the Real Estate of Intestates and
for other purposes."
I have to observe that the Fifth
Section Section of this Ordinance is only
allowed to stand on the strong recommendation of the Attorney General,
and that I should not be prepared to recommend for sanction so novel a
clause in cases of estates of any larger value than that fixed by the
Ordinance.
