May 1861 Dear Sir, As there is a gazette coming out which it is important should not be delayed will you inform me whether a notification of Mr. McLeans resignation of the office of Nat. Secy may be inserted - I find the gazette goes to press in half an hour from this time and think it ought not to be delayed. Yrs most faithfully, Fred. A. Weld. His Excy. Col. G. Browne C.B.
