Letter not found; it is, however, listed in the inward correspondence register of the Department of Crown Lands and Survey (see no. 4743, roll 4, VPRS 227/P1), where its receipt is registered and date recorded. The text given here is from a separate index.
The entry is the second in a series of three register entries, the first of which (see M to C. Hodgkinson, 16 August 1860, n. 1) begins ‘Requests permission’ while this one uses ‘ditto’ in place of that.
Now Port Melbourne.
