114 referring to Y3 Lots, being ten more than were registered last year.

The fees for the above registries as received amounted to £108.15.0. Fees for the issue of Leases to £49.7.8.

In the Month of June the Burial Ground was under my Sexton at the usual Salary.

A new scale of Fees was also established on the 2nd December, 1854, published in the Gazette and for the whole year the total amount due for 122 interments and the creation of four monuments amounted to the sum of £119.16.0.

115 263 Coolies (one being a Messenger or office Coolie) attached to the Department performed their usual operations to entire satisfaction, the labour of three of them when not in direct attendance upon me is fully set forth in my Report upon Public Works. I consider their services to be of much value and indeed absolutely necessary to enable me to execute the duties of my office unassisted by any competent European.

The overseer is now well instructed in all surveying operations and his duty is required to report such services as are to the Road & Public Works.
