Cooper to Carnarvon

Upon the 15th instant, Governor Seymour addressed me as follows;

I have written to the Colonial Office about your half
salary and expressing my belief that there is no foundation
for the charge which has been brought against you.

I have the honor to request that the Crown Agents for
the Colonies may be instructed to hand to me, my half salary
Two hundred and thirty three Pounds, six shillings and
eight pence (£233.6.8) upon my application.

Referring to the letter addressed to me in October last
by Sir F. Rogers, I have the honor to state that the legal
proceedings mentioned have not yet terminated, the case though
set down for the last sitting of the Court, did not come in,
and is to be heard in November next.
