No business of any consequence transacted.

A letter read from Mr Hopkins asking
permission to send his children for one night
to the Refuge but as it was found quite possible [impossible?]
to transfer them from the Shoalhaven to
the Newcastle steamer the same night it was
resolved not to comply with the request.
Mrs Hopkins applied for money instead of an
outfit but it was considered better to to adhere
to the rule and Mrs Baker was desired to procure her outfit at cost not to exceed
£2. Mrs Johnson
