Edwards informs Pelly that he replied suggesting that the cost could be debited from a surplus in the Bushire Residency funds for the previous year and asking if the accountant-general could write to Bombay as he will not be able to write to and receive a reply from Pelly in time.A postscript to the letter, dated 13 February 1870, encloses a letter for Mr Lucas in with the letter to Pelly.
