No. 3

With reference to the 5th Paragraph of my despatch
No. 70 of 24th November I have now the honor to report
that having enquired into the circumstances attending Mr
Walter Moberley's bankruptcy, I am satisfied that they reflect
no discredit upon him. I have therefore, complied with the
wishes of the people of Cariboo West and appointed, subject
to your pleasure, Mr Moberley to be a Member of the Legislative
Council until the first of May 1866.

2. I beg to recommend this appointment for your confirmation.
