Minutes (2).
Fane to Under-Secretary of State
With reference to your letter of the 15th ultimo transmitting a
requisition for Lighthouse Stores for Vancouvers Island, I am to
state that these stores have been forwarded in the ship "Severn" and
to request that you will move Mr Secretary Cardwell to cause the
enclosed Bill of Lading to be forwarded to the Governor of Vancouvers
Island.
I am also to request that the Governor may be informed that each of
the Ruby Glass Shades sent via Panama and by the "Severn" have been
made in two pieces of thicker glass in order to ensure as much as
possible their safe conveyance.
