Despatch from London.
No. 59
11 June 1870
Sir,
I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your Despatch No. 50
of the 28th April, and to convey to you Her Majesty's Gracious
confirmation and allowance of the Ordinance passed by your Government
(No. 15 of 1870) and entitled "An Ordinanceto
to make general regulations
and establishments and management of Cemeteries in the Colony of British
Columbia." I have to observe however with Section 15 that it is not
convenient that a Clause of that kind should be inserted in each
Ordinance and that such provisions should be passed in a General
interpretation Ordinance somewhat similar to the Imperial Act 13 and 14
Vic. Cap. 21, and thus made applicable to all Legislationin
in the Colony.
