^ Seasons so abundant as to prevent
the necessity of corn being
used to any great extent
for the horses. Even in the
severest drought.
In course of time
the "Reserve" would come
in for the ordinary police
when population increases
and the success of the
field is established for
sugar growing — at
present, I believe this
is problematical.
I suggest that
no definite action be
taken in running the
present police station in
the MacIvor [sic], until after
the coming wet season,
and request your
consideration regarding the
advantages promised to
securing the original reserve
I have the honor
to be Sir
