Our property in its condition, is bare open on the actual course to the North, and the hill, as already stated, is so steep that a fence cannot be built on that direction. It is therefore a safe and very freely enjoyed opportunity for fishermen, grass-cutters, coolies, to cross out limits, carry materials to and from the sea shore, gather firewood, injure or even destroy trees or make other damages to be ascertained only when the offender is at large.
The Police Constables can do nothing or very little to check the mischief, as the coolies get into our rough premises by a narrow foot path AB, scarcely noticeable from the road. To prevent such incursions, no other step can be relied upon than to have a wall erected along the road CD up to the corner of bridge 135 B.

The whole length from A to D is very near 257 feet, instead of about 475 according to the scale of plan, and the total area of the piece of land is thereby considerably less than it appears to be.

Through special recommendation from Sir Arthur Kennedy to the Secretary of State, the lease on Farm Lot Nr 24 was granted by Indenture dated March 17th of 1874, for the full term of ninety-nine years, a sum of five dollars being paid for the same. Particulars on the matter can be found in the letters addressed by the Rev. P. M. Ozouf to the Colonial Secretary on the 1st and 10th September, 1873.
