I am directed by Earl Bathurst to inform you that, by information received on the 14th instant from the Navy Office, page 639 a passage can be provided for Tippahee, the New Zealand chief, on board the Henry Porcher, convict ship, for New South Wales, if he is sufficiently recovered in health to undertake the voyage, of which I request you will be so good as to inform me
The ship will be ready to receive passengers on the 25th instant, at Deptford.
I have, &c.,
R. W. Horton.
