The lots sold on the 22nd January were to the number of 116, of which some were composed of portions of Land formerly granted by Captain Elliot, but returned by the existing Government, and which the Parties who considered themselves the Proprietors were compelled to purchase at an exorbitant price, or abandon ground, on which, on the faith of what was previously deemed a valid Title, they had expended considerable sums.
