Full buckram with morocco titling label on front board and with the orig. blue paper printed front wrapper bound in. (L330.44pp.). With errata-slip. Some foxing mainly confined to the margins and some pages between pp.12 and 38 in the Minutes of Evidence section are absent or defective. (Parl. Paper No.669). NOTE: A very important report and enquiry excessively rare even in its slightly defective state as Ferguson 2500 cites only one other copy being the one from the Mackaness Collection.

Startling particulars were given of the conditions on Norfolk Island.
