Wallinghford, Novr. 6th,/67 11 a.m. My dear McLean, Your letter by the mail got mislaid at the Bridge Post office and I have only just got it when I have come down to post the letters I will answer it by return of Cobb's coach on Saturday as we are now after time and have some court cases awaiting us here at the Bridge - I shd. like to think over the Poverty Bay question before writing you my opinion upon it - Always Yours very truly, J. D. Ormond
