He appears to be a hard working and enthusiastic young fellow, and he has done good work in the Garden and taught himself a good deal con- cerning cultivation and propagation of plants.

Mail came in at 3 p.m. from St Kitts, and I could ting but come to read Mannis to the letters. Some people from the steamer came up to get home to dinn. We dined alike and did not hear, as those from the steamer might have felt awkward. Indeed the Governor told me that on Sunday and mail day, he observed the rule not to dine for dinner. after dinner, when the guests had gone, the Governor and I had a long talk. 13 May, 1891 Wednesday. Writing & looking up your papers all through the morning. The Governor showed me all the correspondence concerning the Whiskey patent. In the face of the finding of the Council's the Governor could not have acted differently than he did. He also showed me a long and interesting confidential despatch to the Secretary of State concerning his scheme.
