Summary:

Concerned that JH has not received 'Cape papers' sent with FB's letter. Estimates not yet called for. FB will see that Cape [necessities?] are not forgotten. When will JH present R.S.L. recommendation of 'the Expedition'? That would be good opportunity to 'fire another shot' at Lord Minto [Gilbert Elliot] or Mr. Wood.
