I have received a letter from Mr Henry Fowler lately a clerk
in the Colonial Secys Office Van Couver Island, informing me that
Governor Seymour had written to the Secretary of State in His behalf,
& requesting me to say anything I can in His favor.
Mr Fowler is an active and energetic young man of
a noble minded character, fairly educated, and a very accurate

him. The reduction of the staff in British Columbia, has left him
without employment.
