Sir,
I have to acknowledge the receipt of your Despatch No. 109 of the
12th August last in which you recommend a grant of $250 to Mr. Ker on
account of his services in auditing the Crown Fund accounts connectedwith
with the occupation of San Juan. I do not feel authorized to sanction a
special payment on these grounds as I consider it the duty of the
Auditor to audit the accounts of the whole public Revenue, but I have no
objection to your proposing to the Legislature this grant, when the
Crown Fund shall have been merged into the general accounts of the
Colony.
