GENTLEMEN,
Having laid before the Governor your
memorial of the 10th instant in which
you represent the great want of fresh
water in that part of the town in which
your houses are situated I am directed
to inform you that His Excellency is
looking forward with much anxiety to the
time when under some arrangement or
other a plentiful suppy of water shall be
introduced into every part of Sydney,
both by public fountains and pipes lead-
ing to private houses. Nothing prevents
the immediate adoption of some measure
for effecting this very desirable object,
but the doubt which still exists as to the
sufficiency and permanency of a supply
of water by means of the tunnel now con-
structing. It would be a waste of public
money, and trifling with the desires of
the inhabitant of Sydney, to lay down
pipes before it was certain that water
would continue to fill them. As soon as
the supply seems assured, (and His Ex-
cellency has some reason to hope such
will soon be the case) no time will be
lost in making arrangements for the dis-
tribution of water through all parts of
the town, and for having it conducted to
private-houses at a certain annuul rate.
