No. 44

I have the honor to forward herewith to your Grace a Memorial
which has been handed to me by a Committee composed of some of
the most respectable and influential Inhabitants of Vancouver's
Island, upon the subject of the occupation of the Island of San
Juan by Troops belonging to the Army of the United States of
North America.

2. Under the circumstances of the case, I have no objection to
present the Memorial to Your Grace, and I feel sure that you
will be gratified to learn that the most loyal and patriotic
feelings have been everywhere exhibited by the British
population of Vancouver's Island with reference to this movement
upon the part of the Authorities of the United States.
