Item 27 - Letter from Amyot to the Reverend William D. Ryland

Amyot has received a remittance for Ryland from his father, all that he can spare for the time being. He encloses a copy of the Quebec Gazette containing an address by Ryland's father, moved in the council, which did not pass, relating to the Supply Bills. H.W. Ryland has sent copies of it to Sir George Murray, W. Peel, Lord Althorpe, and Mr. Wilmot Horton. Although it is "clearly and ably written", Amyot cannot see in what way it will benefit Ryland's position. He cannot think of any way in which the curate can better his income.
