To Colonel Melvill, Military Secretary to Government,

In reply to your letter of yesterday s (Lite,
No. 124, I have the honour to propose, for the con
sideration of the Right Hon. the Governor in Council,
that a roomy transport be provided for the accommo
dation of the sick and convalescents of the 2nd Division,
it being probable that Mohumra, the intended base of
the operations of that division, will afford no salubrious
position for a stationary hospital on shore.
The sick of the 2nd division would be well cared for
in such a transport until opportunity offered of trans

hospitals at Karrak : thus room f or such further drafts
of sick as may subsequently arrive from the interior
will be provided.
I have, &c.,
J. Outram.
To the Military Secretary to Government, Bombay.

the names of the officers I am desirous should form my
personal staff.
With reference to the second and third paragraphs
of your letter, I beg to state that the proposed formation
of the head-quarter staff, as shown to me by the Adju
tant -General and yourself, appears complete and efficient
with one exception.
I allude to the omission therein of a " chief of the
staff" as proposed by his Excellency the Commander-
