No. 36

I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch No. 30
of the 14th of May, enclosing a Proclamation entitled "The British
Columbia Loan Act 1863."

I have laid this Proclamation before The Queen, and Her Majesty has
been pleased to confirm and allow it.

You will signify Her Majesty's decision to the inhabitants of
British Columbia in the usual manner.
