Government House, New Zealand Sept. 20, 1870 My dear McLean, In the Ministerial Memm. about Defence, you ask for 10,000 Snider Rifles - I presume, with ammunition; and ''a moderate supply of cannon.'' Of course, I must specify, How many field pieces have you now and of what kind? I presume you ought to make up the field pieces to about 24 for the whole Colony; then what Battery guns do you want? Pitt recommends We must make some definite application, or we shall get nothing. Ever yrs. G. F. Bowen
