Despatch to London.
Minutes (1), Enclosures (untranscribed) (2).
Confidential
10th April 1867
My Lord,
After considerable hesitation I have considered it but
fair that I should forward certain minutes of the Executive
Council respecting Mr Franks, whomthe the Duke of Newcastle
appointed Treasurer of this Colony.
2. I have no wish to prejudice Mr Franks in Your
Lordship's opinion but merely to show things as they are.
I have the honor to be,
My Lord,
Your most obedient
humble Servant Frederick Seymour
