Cooper to Stanley (Foreign Office)

I should esteem it favour by your informing me of the proper person
to apply to for information respecting a person who has died
recently at Victoria, Vancouver Island as I require to know if
possible the state of his affairs and the nature of the property he
has left behind (if any) and also if there is a British Consul
there and if so if he is the proper party to apply to for the
information I require.
