No. 101, Miscellaneous

With reference to Your Grace's despatch No 25 of the
18th May, forwarding a letter from Mr T.M. Magee relative
to some property left by one Bernard Rice who was shot at Yale,
British

Columbia in December 1858, I have now the honor to
transmit for your Grace's information copy of a Report I have
received from Mr Whannell late Justice of the Peace at Yale,
into whose charge the effects of the deceased were given.

2. Mr Whannell's explanation of the disposition

he made
of Rice's effects appears to me to be satisfactory, and I
am unable after diligent enquiry to furnish Your Grace with
information on this subject from any other quarter.
