On reflection, however, he considered that the position was not a suitable one for the purpose, and established the Dispensary on the Queen's Road, selling the ground to me in the August following.
In the January 1844, he purchased from Government a piece of ground in that locality, on which he has built his Dispensary, thus fulfilling the pledge to Sir Henry Pottinger, if any was given, of a Dispensary, and that without injury to the public revenue. He certainly was not called upon to abandon the ground with its improvements, if he could do better, and in selling the property, he only did what Mr. Charles Stewart was allowed to do with his, whenever a purchaser appeared for it.
All Government regulations were complied with, and in obedience to Government Notification dated 10th April, 1843, as the land was still in his name, Dr. Young addressed a letter to the proper officer stating his pretensions to the land, which seemed satisfactory, as no claim or objection was raised to his possession of the land.
I entered on possession of the land immediately after its purchase, and by the 1st of March, 1843, I inhabited a house I had built on it at an expense of $1100, my right continuing unquestioned, up to January, 1844.
The lot, as laid out by Lieut. Sargent about the 20th March, 1842, was 105 feet square, but in 1844 when the Streets were altered, narrow additions were made to it on two sides by the Government.
