I am commanded by the 
Lords Commissoners of Her Majesty's Treasury
               to return to you herewith the Act passed by the Legislature of
               
Vancouver's Island in 
December 1862 entitled an Act to impose Certain
               Stamp Duties on Writings and Deeds, which accompanied 
M Elliot's
               letter of 
23 Ultimo, and I am to acquaint you
for
 for the information
               of the 
Duke of Newcastle, that Their Lordships having communicated
               this Act to the Commissioners of Inland Revenue, are of opinion that
               there is no objection to it, but the Commissioners have called
               attention to an omission
in
 in the Act as Noted in the Margin (17
               Clause).
