With respect to Lots 148 & 63, held by Messrs Zurner & Co., and Lot 40, held by Messrs Ave Vicar & Co., We do not have any objection to their being resumed on the terms recommended by the Governor; a similar course having already been adopted in several similar cases.
With respect to Lot 87 the circumstances are rather different. This Lot was originally granted to the late Mr. Stewart on an annual rent of £76.18.6. The property was subsequently subdivided into three parts; one part only, called "Helen's Bank", being kept by Mr Stewart. The Executors of that gentleman request that they may now be allowed to retain this part of the property, on which an expensive house has been built, at the reduced rental of £19, being about 1/4th of the original Rent. The Government resuming the remainder.
