Mr Herbert
The Governor's report of this leave not recd.
Mr Birch says Mr Williams is a most respectable & honorable man—& told him he had recd his 1/2 Salary up to the 10th May & was short of money. His Salary is £150 a year.
I think on this letter he might have his 1/2 Salary from 10th May to 30 June.
