The Manager,
Warrawagine Station,
via MARBLE BAR.
Dear Sir,
On 7th May, 1940 a half-caste child Lena (Lena Barr)
daughter of Winnyin @ Maudie, was removed from your Station 
and placed in the Moore River Native Settlement.
It is now proposed to baptise Lena in the
Anglican Faith and I would appreciate your advising me if
Maudie has any objection to this action.
Yours faithfully,
COMMISSIONER OF NATIVE AFFAIRS.

Dear Sir,
The boy Bill, who was removed to Perth
Hospital on 23.12.39 for treatment to his knee, is now in
the Moore River Native Settlement and it is proposed to have
him baptised in the Anglican Faith. Would you kindly advise
me whether Bill has ever been baptised or if there is any 
objection to his following this faith.
Yours faithfully,

P.S. This information could be obtained from Bill's
parents if they are still resident on your
Station.
