Letter This is used for general correspondence that doesn't fit into a specialized category (e.g., ministerial submissions). Transcript A transcript of the document. Lambeth Palace, April 5, 1865. Sir, In consequence of the resignation by Bishop Anderson of the See of Rupert's Land, it becomes necessary to consider what course should be taken with respect to the future episcopal superintendence of the clergy and laity of the communion of the Church of England in that Settlement. In the event of Her Majesty not being advised to appoint a successor to Bishop Anderson under his Letters Patent, I trust it will be the view of Her Majesty's Government that Her Majesty's permission should still be accorded for the consecration of a proper person to exercise the office of Bishop within the same territory over which Bishop Anderson exercised episcopal authority, though without the legal powers (if any) which were conferred upon Bishop Anderson by those Letters Patent. In that event, I beg to recommend the Reverend R. Machray, of Sidney College, Cambridge, as a fit and proper person to be consecrated for that purpose, and to request that Her Majesty may be pleased to issue the necessary Mandate, authorizing me to proceed to his consecration. <div style="text-align:center;">I am, &c, (Signed) C.
