New Plymouth, 10th May, 1863. Sir, —Since writing yesterday, I have received news from Auckland as to the proceedings of the Natives in the North, which make it advisable that you should have the power of calling out the Militia of Hawke’s Bay at once, if necessary, without the delay of another reference to Auckland. I accordingly enclose you a Proclamation, enabling Major Whitmore to call out the Militia of your Province. He will no doubt avail himself of your advice as to the time and manner of calling them out. I have not had time to ascertain whether Major Whitmore is willing to accept this command; but from his known zeal and energy I take it for granted he will accept it, while from his talents and other military qualities I am aware of no one in Hawke’s Bay so fit for it. I have the honor to be. Sir, Your most obedt. servant, (Signed), Alfred Domett. His Honor the Superintendent Hawke’s Bay.
