My Lord Duke,
I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of Your Despatch No: 4
of the 9th February 1863 acquainting me that the final accounts
relating to the erection of the Lighthouses in Fucas Straits
have not
yet been received and that the Lords of the Committee of Privy
Council for Trade were unable in consequence to settle the Accounts
for these Lighthouses.

Council for Trade were unable in consequence to settle the Accounts
for these Lighthouses.
2. I beg to express my regret for this inadvertent omission which
arose through the change in Treasurers and I hasten to supply it. By
the present mail the accounts in question will be forwarded
to the
Secretary of the Board of Trade and I trust that they may be found
satisfactory.
