Circulars similar to this one were sent to fourteen Heads of Departments within the
Chief Secretary's Department. The original letter, addressed to the Chairman of the
Board of Agriculture, is no. 1302, pp. 93-4.
I am directed by the Honorable the Chief Secretary to inform you that whenever it
is necessary for your Department to make a remittance to the Crown Agent, it is desirable that an account be prepared on the usual form and in the name of the
Honorable the Treasurer, as the claimant, and that it be forwarded to
this office
in sufficient time to admit of its being sent to the Treasury, at least a week before
the Mail closes, in a letter containing the Chief Secretary's approval of the remittance
being made.
(Sd) J. Moore
The Director of the Botanic Gardens.
