With regard to the arguments in support of the fact that Mr Tshuction's grants were sanctioned by Her Majesty's Government, it is only necessary to admit that they were so, the grants of Town Lots only were disallowed, and I do not see that the paragraph extracted from the Blue Book strengthens the claim for a reduction of rent in the least degree: the general conditions in Captain Alliot's sales and Mr. Johnston grants were the same, and the acts were no doubt confirmed; and thus Lord Stanley advises that all should be under the regulations, "where parties have made bona fide outlay, and are unwilling to retain their Lots on the reduced terms.
"I shall be happy to give any further information in my power, but I think I have shown, that Captain Elliot's sales and Mr Johnston's grants were made under totally different circumstances, and as such, have been treated accordingly, and that Mr Scott has no right to complain; that I was perfectly justified in making the amended measurement under the terms of the regulation, the manifest error in the original calculation and the encroachment made by Mr Aldgate of no less than 21 feet, that the original measurement might not be charged.
