Sub-series consists of enclosures in despatches sent to the Colonial Office during Sir George Arthur's term as Lieutenant Governor of Upper Canada, 1838-1841. The enclosures to despatches sent from him to the Secretary of State were filed separately and now form volumes 1 to 12.

At a later date volume 13, enclosures to despatches, 1861-1869, was added to this series but it has no relation to volumes 1 to 12. Volume 13 includes a wide variety of material received by the Governor-in-Chief and, after Confederation, the Governor General, from colonial officials and committees of the Executive Council, 9 August 1861 to 16 February 1869.
