Sir,
With reference to previous correspondence which has taken place
relative to plans of British Columbia;
I am directed by the Secretary of State for War to transmit to you,
for Mr Secretary Cardwell's information, the accompanying copy of a
letter received from Colonel Moody R.E., late Commanding Royal
Engineer in that Colony, on the above subject, and I am to signify
Lord de Grey's requestthat
that you will move Mr Cardwell to favor him
with two copies of the maps therein referred to, should the Statement
in the last paragraph of Colonel Moody's letter be correct.

Mr Elliot
I place with this letter the only Map of V.C. Island which we possess & which answers Colonel Moody's description as to its being lithographed in London, but I showed it to him the other day when he pronounced it not to be the
Map to which he referred. Send it
however to the W.O. as the only one we have?
