and it
therefore, rests with the Committee to say how - for in their opinion the rent should be reduced, as it is surely used for ornamental purposes.
The other lots 134 to 137 inclusive, are above the upset price, but the locality is a good one, and I believe the houses give remunerating rents.
No. 7.
Blenkin Rawson & Co. Lots 53 and 54.
It would be quite impossible to please all parties in the measuring of ground; and it was so, in the first instance, when Lots were given, which caused so much confusion in the Town, and rendered a new design and Survey necessary. Messrs: Blenkin and Rawson complain that a portion of the ground is unavailable; that might be said of every Lot sold in the Town, nor do I know a spot for a hundred feet deep from the Queen's Road, anywhere; every Lot must be cut away to a certain degree to form a level for the house to stand on, or if it was thought unadvisable to do so, it might be formed into terraces, and so render the whole effective.
Some consideration was given to these particular Lots, a reference to the measurement is sufficient; they adjoin each other, and one has a depth of one hundred feet, the other of fifty only.
I do not think the mode of measurement unjust in the least; had they chosen, the houses could have been arranged otherwise, and made to occupy the whole ground, as is done in several parts of the Town, where the front of the house is entered from one road and the rear from another.

A. Carter, Elgin. Marine Lot No. 44.
At the time of sale and previous to it, the peculiarities of the Lot might easily have been pointed out, when it would have been in His Excellency's power to alter the upset price; the office had no power to do so, and as Mr. Carter saw both the plan and the ground previous to the sale, and these circumstances were not mentioned, it was not thought necessary to make a special price for the Lot other than the established one.
Alluding to paragraph 4, it is stated that there is a certain area in front of his house only available for garden purposes.
