Affording access to the site in case of fire, and giving the Police control over the more effective nests of boats and pirates formerly congregating in the mat sheds and hovels at the water side; it is to be hoped however that now the houses are completed, the several parties interested will combine, and carry into effect the intentions of His Excellency The Governor, and as the land reclaimed by them is of considerable value, and their own interests involved in the scheme, I have no doubt with little trouble the difficulties now in the way may be arranged.

In connexion with the changes in the Lower Bazaar, I have to allude to the only case in which satisfaction was not felt by the Tenants with the plan confirmed by this Excellency. This was in the case of the original proprietor of Lots called No 8 and 8A, the Land originally occupied by them was resumed in terms of the lease in a legal manner and an equivalent apportioned off in lieu thereof as Compensation for this resumption. The original proprietor made no objection to the proposed change, subsequently sold the interest in the old Lease, subject to the notice of resumption, no objection was made by the assignee for some months, when application was made to the Government to render him assistance in reclaiming the area granted as compensation; this was refused, whereupon a lawsuit was commenced against certain of the Crown Tenants leased by Government, in accordance with the changes in the position of the lots upon a portion of the ground resumed; and, upon the advice of the Acting Attorney.
