Being desirous of obtaining a copy of the existing regulations
               for the disposal of Crown land in the colony of 
British Columbia,
               and being only able to obtain those enacted by Proclamations dated
 January 1860
               January 1860, and 
January 1861, some of which I am reliably
               informed have been repealed and reenacted, with alterations, I
               take the liberty of stating that I should feel obliged if you
               would favour me

 with a copy, or abstract, of the regulations at
               present in force, or if you would inform me where I can obtain the
               same.
