My dear Sir,
The duties of the Surveyor General1 having obliged him again to leave Town, he directed me previous to his departure to prepare and forward to you, with his very best wishes, a copy of the Instructions he handed to Mr W. C. Gosse, the Leader of the Western Exploring Expedition, which I now have much pleasure in doing — The Surveyor General will himself write to you on his return.
I am Dear Sir
yours faithfully
U. N. Bagot
Chief Clerk
Baron Muëller
Melbourne
George Goyder.
