Maitland regarding previous corrspondence regarding Peter Paul, a Mi'kmaq man convicted of murder, enclosing "His Majesty's pardon" for Mr. Paul on condition that Paul serves two years. Also includes a copy of a letter from Phillips to B.W. Hay advising that Robert Peel has recommended to the King that Paul's sentence be commuted to two years but nothing that if the Lt. Gov. feels the sentence should be even shorter, in the interests of justice, then he may shorten it. "Whitehall 19 Augt. 1830."
