	The above regulations I drew up when in New Zealand— had them past [sic] and entered in the Minutes of the Committee— Should the Parent Committee see cause to alter any of them, or to make any additions to them I will thank you to communicate their wishes to me— many things may occur to the members of the Committee, who are better acquainted with Buisness [sic] than myself, which never strike me— If my Friend Mr Barron Field arrives safe you will receive from him all the Remarks, and other Information I wished to forward to the Society. I shall not send duplicates at present, but wait to hear whether you have received my Accounts or not—
I remain
