Description | Governor MacCarthy has arrived but he has not yet seen him. Renner left for Bashia on 18 Jul. Butscher's eldest son, Charles, died the afternoon of this letter and he is despondent. The bearer of the letter, Capt. Gunther of the 'Echo', is a devout Methodist and has intimated a wish to be captain of the projected CMS vessel 'The William Wilberforce'. Butscher warmly recommends him. He encloses a duplicate of the order from Renner for £10, being the late Mrs. Hartwig's property. |
