I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your Despatch No. 89
of the
15th July enclosing for my consideration a letter addressed to
you by
Mr. Henry Fowler in which he applies for a more lucrative and
permanent appointment than that
which which he now holds.
I regret that I am unable to forward
Mr. Fowler's wishes but I
approve of your intention to secure him, as long as he behaves well, an
appointment worth between £200 and £300 a year.
