Confidential
30th March 1864
My Lord Duke,
Referring to my Predecessor's Despatch (No 3 Legislative) dated 12th Feby 1864, I would suggest that Your Grace should defer taking any action upon it pending a further communication from Me.
2. The Legislative Assembly is still in Session and I have reason to hope that additional information which I will be enabled to place before them may induce them to reverse or modify the Resolutions transmitted in the Despatch adverted to.
I have the honor to be
My Lord Duke
Your Graces very obedient
humble Servant
A.E. Kennedy
Governor
