Auckland, 8th Jany., 1851. My Dear Sir, I send this note by a special Messenger from the Police Force conveying to Sir George the melancholy intelligence of the death of General Pitt and as I do not know where His Excellency is will you give the Messenger the necessary orders and assistance to accomplish the object of his journey so far as you can. I was glad to hear from you the other day and that you had seen His Excellency Sir George in good spirits. He has had much to worry him lately, but I have no doubt that he will survive and conquer it all. The Southerns who have so violently rejected his proferred constitution will find I have no doubt that neither the Home Government nor the House of Lords will sanction one quite so liberal as he has proposed. Certainly the Southerns will not get what they ask for as it would be in fact making a republic but under another name. I must close and send the Messenger off. I remain, Yours truly, A. Sinclair.
