Stansfeld to Rogers (Permanent Under-Secretary)

With reference to your letter of 12th inst. I am directed by
the Lords Commissoners of Her Majesty's Treasury to acquaint
you, for the information of Earl Granville, that My Lords agree
with his Lordship that, before expressing any opinion on the
question whether the amount irregularly drawn by Mr
Seymour late Governor of British Columbia from the Crown Fund
ought to be claimed against his Estate, they should await the
report of the particulars of the sums which he drew from this Fund.
