No. 6

I have the honor to transmit to you, for your information, the
enclosed copy of a correspondence with Mr. Trutch, from which you will
perceive that I have extended his leave to the 15th of May, and that he
reports a sale of his interest in the public Works of the Colony, which
upon his producing to you any evidence requisite to satisfy you of the
completion of the transaction, will enable you to continue to take
advantage of his services in an Office for which he has been described
to posses valuable qualifications.
