Sir,
I have the honor to transmit to you a copy of a letter from the
Board of Treasury relative to a claim made upon that Board on behalf of
Mr. F. C. Hansen, Master of the Ship "Granger" for the subsistence
during the passage from Vancouver Island to Queenstown of Thomas Burke a
distressed British
Subject.
Subject.
I have to request that you will call the attention of the Justice
of the Peace who signed the order for Burke's passage, to the error into
which he has fallen, and that you will cause it to be made generally
known that persons in the Colonies are not entitles to passages to this
country at the expense of the British Government.
