Sir,
I have to acknowledge the receipt of Mr. Hankin's despatch of the
26th June, No. 22 forwarding a Report from Mr. Trutch the Chief
Commissioner of Lands and Works, who accompanied the late Governor on
his visit to the North West Coast of British Columbia.
Mr. Trutch's Report is very interesting and I must express my
satisfactionboth
both at the prompt manner in which Mr. Seymour started for
Metlakahtla on receiving my despatch of the 7th March last and at his
success in accommodating a quarrel which if left to itself might have
produced very serious results in arresting the course of improvement
among the Indians.
