No. 19

With reference to your Despatch No. 64 of the 21st August, I have
the honor to acquaint you that I have instructed the Crown Agents to pay
to the credit of Naval Services the sum of £33.9.0, being the amount
due to the Officers of Her Majesty's Ship "Scout" for the
entertainment of yourself and Mr. Philip Hankin from the 9th to the 20th
August. The charge of a passage made on the service of the Colony should
be defrayed from any Colonial fund under the control of the Governor.

I have to request therefore that you will make a remittance of the
above mentioned amount to the Crown Agents.
