researches in these matters?
I also want Bigge's Report.

It is so long since I have
seen you & there seems so little
chance of my visiting Sydney,
that I hope you will excuse my
thus troubling you.

I see Essington and Arthur King
frequently: both are well, &
Mrs Essington has happily recovered
from a long and serious illness.
I saw her the day before yesterday.

You will see if you read any
Victorian news that we have now
a scheme for taxing land before
our Legislative Assembly. It has
only just been propounded however,
and no discussion has taken place
upon it. I must ask you to
give my kindest remembrances to
all Camden friends and to believe
me ..... Yours most sincerely
