No. 20

I transmit to you herewith copy of a correspondence which has
passed between this Office and the War Department relative to the
erection of a Naval Powder Magazine in VanCouver Island, and I have to
instruct you to place a suitable site at the disposal of the War
Department for this service, and to desire the Officer Commanding the
Royal Engineers to take at once those measures which are requisite for
carrying the wishes of the War Office into effect.
