Correspondence

Correspondence.

(No. 1.—Hon Sec. to Secretary for Land and Works.) Dunedin Athenæum and Mechanics' Institute, July 29th, 1868. The Secretary for Land and Works, &c., &c., &c.,

Sir,

I have the honor to inform you that the Committee has, in connection with other schemes for the enlargement of the Institute's operation, at present under consideration the Resolutions passed by the Provincial Council last Session, and as it is believed that it would materially contribute to the prospect of a speedy settlement of the question if the Committee were able to place before a General Meeting a statement of the Government's willingness to transfer some particular site or sites, (should it be possible to offer a choice) in the event of a Resolution being carried, committing the Institute to the basis of the Resolutions referred to, I am requested to ask that you would be good enough, at your earliest convenience, to furnish the information required.

I have, &c., (Signed)

Chas. Smith,

Hon. Sec.
