               I have determined to incur no longer the responsibility
of
               of keeping 
Lieutenant Hankin, R.N. out of the office of Colonial
               Secretary to which he was appointed by Royal Warrant.
               
               I have issued a Commission to him today and have sworn him into
               office.
