Transcription:

My dear Haddon,

Enclosed you will find report my promised last evening, and not quite trimmed as I'd like.
I am anxious to have it in print as soon as possible for I believe R. Govt. Report is ready to be laid on the table immediately on the meeting of Parliament E.R Wright thinks it better to publish my reports separate & not in the General report but the committee must decode this. I have written to Jefferies about it. If we al had proofs before print off it would be well. What about an outline of map I enclose, with a few names?
Excuse haste

Yours ever,

W. S. Green
