Napier 26 May 66 My dear McLean No word of you by St. Kilda I see she is in the port and that is all I know, save the mate told me stress of weather drove them here - I am busy with the mails and enclose you a note from Col. Russell which you may want to see - All going on quietly here and trust you will see the St. Kilda safely lower her boat tomorrow - Yours truly Joseph Rhodes D. McLean Esq. Wairoa
