Sir,
I have had the honor to receive your letter of the 22
instant relative to an application made for Mr Robert Ker,
Auditor for British Columbia, to be permited to become one of
the Board of Directors of the Colonial Securities Company.
I am disposed to think that this permission ought not to be
given. Under the present constitution of the colony
the colonial
accounts are not examined by any legislative Commitee, the
Auditor must consequently run no risk of impairing the confidence
which the public repose in him.
