No. 72, Financial

As the period has nearly arrived when it will be necessary to
consider and frame the Estimates of Receipt and Expenditure of this
Colony for 1867, it would be a great convenience for me to know your
decision upon the claims advanced for re-imbursement of outlay on
account of maintenance of Lighthouses and Conveyance of Mails as laid
before you in my Despatches No 71 dated 23rd August 1865, and No
72 of the same date.
