I have the honor to submit, in obedience to the orders of His Excellency The Governor, the enclosed tabular statement relating to the work proposed to be carried into effect for the formation of the Strand Road from Magazine Gap to the Lyndhurst Terrace, inclusive of all Government work in that district.
The frontage to be entered in the credit, if made by Government, is assumed at the old Marine Lot Rate, viz., per 199 feet £1, the Rate as granted nor in at the 11th clause From Let Rate, the addition of the tiers would consequently be £1,
The Hon'ble. W.J. Mercer, Esquire,
