No. 78

I have the honor to transmit copy of the depositions taken before
Mr Brew, Police Magistrate of New Westminster, in regard to the
plundering of the English schooner "Nanaimo Packet" within the waters of
this Colony.

2. The Tako Indians who committed the outrage reside within the
Russian limits. I shall therefore write to the Governor of New
Archangel when an opportunity shall present itself for conveying my
letter.

3. The Government of this Colony has no means of protecting its
coast.
