Peel to Rogers (Permanent Under-Secretary)

With reference to Mr Elliot's letter of the 20th Instant, & its
Enclosure, respecting the supply of Douglas Pine Seed which has been
shipped to this Country by the Governor of Vancouver's Island for the
use of the Commissioners of Her Majesty's Woods & Forests, I am
desired by the Lords Commissoners of Her Majesty's Treasury to
acquaint you, for the information of the Duke of Newcastle, that as
soon as the Account between the Imperial Government & the Government
of Vancouver's Island which contains the charge of £65.13.5, the cost
of collecting the Seeds in question, has been received in this
Department, My Lords will request the repayment of the amount from
the Commissioners of Woods &c.
