Field Michael Hartnett Wil iam Thorne Edward Sayer Robert Scott Joseph Scott Auckland, 19th April, 1855. TO CAPTAIN SALMON AND THE OTHER REQUISITIONISTS. Gentlemen, —I have had the honour to receive your very flattering invitation to allow myself to be put in nomination for the office of Superintendent of the Province of Auckland, and I have to thank you for the manner in which you have testified your approval of my administration of the affairs of the Province of New Ulster, during the period for which I had the honour to hold the office of Lieut.-Governor. I have not been insensible, Gentlemen, of the importance to the Province of securing, if possible, for the administration of its affairs, a candidate in whose behalf the sympathies of men of all classes and all political views may be united; neither have I been disposed lightly to esteem the honour which will be conferred upon him who may be the subject of their choice. Still I have felt myself compelled by various considerations more than once to decline to allow myself to be put in nomination; seeing, however, that upwards of five hundred of the inhabitants of the Province, comprising men of various classes, and various political views, have united in recording their conviction that I possess a combination of qualifications for the newly created office, calculated to command all but universal support, I can no longer refuse to undertake its duties, should the suffrages of the Electors be given in my favour. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your very obedient servant, R. 11. WVNVALD. Auckland, I9lh April, 1853,
