With reference to your despatch No. 21 of the 
21st of April last I
               have the honor to acquaint you that I have caused 
Mr. Walkem to be
               informed in answer to his letter of the 
12th of January that the
               propriety of admitting Canadian Barristers to practise in 
BritishColumbia Columbia
               Columbia
               Columbia has been pointed out to 
Mr. Justice Begbie, and that probably
               rules have been made before this date authorizing such admission.
