Julyan to Elliot (Assistant Under-Secretary)

I have the honor to inform you, for the information of
His Grace the Duke of Newcastle, that a Bill of Exchange for
£4000, at 60 days sight, drawn by the Governor of British
Columbia in favor of The Hudsons Bay Company, has been left
at this office, and I have to request that you will furnish
me with the Duke of Newcastle's authority for accepting the same.
