Mr Elliot
I shd not think it necessary, after the intimation contained in the S. of S. despatch of the 22 Feby to communicate this inter-departmental information to him.

ABd 28/3

I think this may immediately be used as a text on which to address his final instructions to repay immediately the sum of £6900. I submit a draft accordingly.
