Berens to Newcastle

I have now the honor to transmit herewith a statement of
the grounds upon which this Company claim the lands and
buildings in their occupation in British Columbia; and for the
purpose of the matter being brought under the consideration
of the Judicial Committee, I shall be happy to put our
Solicitor in communication with the Law Officers of the
Crown as soon as your Grace has had an opportunity of
considering

the statement now sent, and whether it can be
arranged that a joint statement can be agreed upon or that
each party shall furnish its own.
