Sir George Lewis will be glad to be informed of the answer which should be returned to this application.

I have the honor to be Sir Your obedient Servant Edward Lugard
Mr Elliot A copy of the annexed Proclamation (No 3 of /61) was sent to the War Office on the 20th of last Decr. Furnish the War Office with another copy, if we can spare it—which I doubt—adding that the Proclamation recdreceived the Queen's approval on the 30th Decr last. ABd 27/3
The best reply will be to say that the advantages accorded to Officers of the Army who may settle in British Columbia are detailed in the Proclamation of the 18th of March 1861, of which a copy will be found in the letter from this Department to the War Office dated the 20th of Decr last, and to suggest that Capt. Cochrane should be answered in accordance with the contents of that Proclamation. TFE 27 March
