Governor Kennedy had left the Colony and the Administration of the Government was in the hands of Mr Young the ColonialSecretary Secretary. I was received with great coldness but no disrespect by a large concourse of people. I regretted to observe a look of extreme depression upon the Town and its inhabitants.

2. On the following day I received the Addresses from the Mayor and Corporation and from the Fire Brigade Copies of which I have the honor to enclose together with Copies of my replies.
