I am directed by the Lords Commissioners of Her Majesty's
Treasury to state, for the information of the
Duke of Buckingham
& Chandos, with references to your letter of the
4th Inst,
that My Lords approve of the payment of $500 to
Mr E.J. Nesbitt,
who has lost his appointment by the Union of
Vancouvers Island
and
British Columbia, to cover the expense of his journey home;
as recommended by His Grace.
