No. 59, Miscellaneous

Adverting to your Despatch No 94 of the 16h April last, I have the
honor to acquaint Your Grace that by this opportunity will be
forwarded through the Express office of Messrs Wells Fargo & Co
(London Agents, Eives & Macey, of King William Street) a Box
addressed to Her Majesty's Commissioners for Woods and Forests,
containing about 20 lbs weight of Seed, and 6 1/2 Bushels of Cones,
of the Douglas Pine.

2. The greatest care has been taken in the collection and packing of
this Seed, and I hope it will turn out in good condition. The case is
metal lined, and the packages containing the Seed are surrounded by
dry Charcoal to absorb moisture.

The expense of collecting amounts to Sixty five pounds, Thirteen
Shillings, and Five pence (£65.13.5), the particulars of which will
be brought to account in the periodical Statement rendered of the
Receipt and Disbursement of Imperial moneys by this Government.

4. The case has been insured for the amount of 325 Dollars.
