Lugard to Under-Secretary of State

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 request 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.
