I must finish off now, as Post hour has arrived. I can't think of anything else to say at present. I enclose this morning's ''Independent'', containing an article commenting on your Waikato doings. I also enclose Campbell's last Report from Waiapu, which is interesting, but not very cheering. I forgot to allude to it in enumerating the Official enclosures. Believe me always very sincerely yours (Signed) G.S. Cooper.
