✨ Military Medal Entitlement Rolls




248
THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE.

Kimberley's consideration, that the Government of
that Colony, which has, it is understood, the means
of identifying the persons named in the rolls from
which the medals were prepared, should be intrusted
with the task of distributing them, the rolls, which
will accompany the medals, being returned to this
Department at the expiration of two years from their
receipt in New Zealand, together with such medals
as may then remain unclaimed, either by reason of
their not having been applied for, or on account of
the persons for whom they were intended having died
previously to the date of the General Order of March,
1869, notifying the grant of the medal.

Should Lord Kimberley concur in this proposal, I
am to request that you will move His Lordship to
cause the necessary instructions to be given to the
Colonial Government with the view to carrying it
out, and at the same time to favour Mr. Cardwell
with his opinion as to the manner in which the medals
should be transmitted to New Zealand.

I have, &c.,
EDWARD LUGARD.

Colonial Office to War Office.

Downing Street, 31st January, 1871.

SIR, I have laid before the Earl of Kimberley your
letter of the 21st instant, enclosing a list of officers
and men of the Local Forces in New Zealand, and of
civilians employed in the Commissariat Transport
Corps and paid from Imperial funds, who are entitled
to the New Zealand Medal. His Lordship has in-
structed Sir George Bowen to conform to Mr. Card-
well's wishes in respect to the issue of these medals.

In answer to the inquiry contained in the last
paragraph of your letter, His Lordship would recom-
mend that the medals should be forwarded to the
Colony through the Crown Agents.

I am, &c.,
H. T. HOLLAND.
The Under Secretary of State, War Office.
