Scope & content
Letter: responding to his of the 7th and the enclosure addressed to Napier from the Chief Secretary who wanted to know why presents were issued to those of the Algonquins and Nipissings of the Lake of the Two Mountains when they had remained absent from their settlement for two years or more. Hughes states that he has already explained the reasons adding that it was also the rule that if an Indian rerurned after an absence of several years and gave a satisfactory account of his non-appearance then he could be placed again upon the return.
