Dear Sir

In forwarding you answer's to your question's re Palm, growing at the north West Portion of W. Australia

See M to W. Dale, 21 March 1892 (in this edition as 92-03-21a). Dale had forwarded M's questions to WA's Police Commissioner, G. Phillips, who sent them to J. Beresford, Police Sergeant at Roebourne, WA. On 13 May 1892, and Beresford in turn passed them on to Henry Keep, the Acting Government Resident at Roebourne, whom he knew was about to pay a visit to Millstream. Dale was now forwarding Keep's reply (H. Keep to M, 10 June 1892). The file includes a summary by Keep, dated 10 June 1892.

I sincerely hope they will be satisfactory. I have to thank G. Phillips esq Commissioner of Police and the Acting Govt Resident Roebourne for the trouble they have taken in so doing.

I have the honor to be

Dear Sir

Your most obt Sevt.

William Dale
