I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your Despatch No. 39
of the
23rd April, in regard to the appointment of
Phillippo as Attorney
General of
B. Columbia, and the emoluments to be attached to that
office.
In case any difficulties should occur in the Council with reference
to
to the increase to £800 per annum of the salaries fixed by the Crown
Salaries Act, I have to authorize you, as you propose to make
Mr.
Phillippo's salary up to that amount from the vote which supplied the
fees paid to the late Attorney General.
