Sir,
I have the honor to
request that you will submit
to His Excellency the Governor
General my application to be
allowed leave of absence from
my official duties for a
period of six weeks.
I am induced to make
this application from the bad
state of my health and
from very urgent private affairs
requiring my personal attention.
I have the honor to be
Sir
Your most obedient Servant
