"I have had a staff bill drawn up which I think will be advantageous to the service and which I hope will meet with your approval - It will be sent to Mr. Wilson who will no doubt show it to you before it is put in the form of a bill to submit to the Senate. I hope to make a [visit?] within a very short time..." Burnside adds a short postscript, "Can you come down to see me for a day - I would be delighted to see you."
