I have the honor to acquaint Your Lordship that I have drawn a
Bill, as per margin,
No 37, 4 June 1870, in favor of Crown Agents.
on Her Majesty's Paymaster General for the sum of Fifteen
Hundred Pounds (£1500) on account of the Detachment of Royal Marines
stationed
at at
San Juan Island, and to request that you will be
good enough to cause the necessary steps to be taken in order
that the Bill may be met at maturity.
