Kernaghan to Carnarvon

I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your Lordship's letter of 28th.
Having written to Sir Edw Bulwer Lytton on the 26th asking when he could receive a deputation of Members of Parliament & Canadian Merchants as well as referring him to a letter sent through the Irish Attorney General & one from Messrs. Gilmour Rankin & Co, I would fain hope that as I applied first to Lord Stanley & afterwards to Sir Edwould on his accession that I will not be overlooked in the Secretary-ship for the new Colony.

Rt. Hon J. Whitende MP.
