Colonial Secretary’s Office,

Wellington, 26th April, 1872.

Sir,

I have the honor to inform your Honor that the working survey of that portion of the Wellington and Wairarapa line, which extends from Pipitea to the Upper Hutt, a distance of fifteen miles is sufficiently complete to enable me to state that immediately on Mr. Brogden’s return from the South, which is expected in the early part of next month, the data for the contract will be furnished to that gentleman’s firm.

I take this opportunity of further informing your Honor that a difference has arisen between Messrs. Brogden and the Government on some of the conditions incidental to all contracts, but I have reason to believe that these conditions will be finally settled on Mr. Brogden’s return.

I have the honor to be, Sir,

Your most obedient servant,

W. GISBORNE.

His Honor the Superintendent,

Wellington.
