“ When Sir Edward Eyre was appointed by Lord Grey, the Secretary of State for the Colonies, to be the Assistant-Governor of New Zealand, an arrangement was made at the Colonial Office for the purpose of defraying the expense of maintaining and educating Edward Warrulan in this country, out of the fund set apart for the benefit of the South-Australian natives, and Dr. Hodgkin, probably at the suggestion of Sir Edward Eyre, was requested to act as his guardian in carrying out the plan. As a special favour, admission was obtained for him into an agricultural school at Sibford, in Oxfordshire. ”
