I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt on the 16th April
last, of your Despatch No 2 of the 10th February 1853.
[Marginal note: Sent 20 Feb/53. [ABd]]

I observe with much satisfaction that the appointment of Mr
Sangster to the Office of Collector of Customs, has met with your
approval, and that Your Grace has communicated with the Lords
Commissioners of the Admiralty relative to the discovery of Coal on
Vancouver's Island, and also called the attention of the Hudson's Bay
Company to the necessity of making effectual 
provision for the moral and
religious instruction of the inhabitants of this Colony.
