Sir,—I have the honor to present the return of sheep for the East Coast District for the year ending 31st December, 1873. As there will be many large contracts for fencing completed this season, we may fairly expect a more favorable report next year, as the owners of diseased flocks will then be enabled to make clean musters. I am afraid it may be some years before several of the large rough runs now infected can be pronounced clean.

I have the honor to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,

Henry Bunny, Esq.,
Provincial Secretary, Wellington.

Thomas Telford,
Inspector of Sheep, East Coast.
