The concurs will be best understood by the plan he has the honor to submit, which with the subsequent description he trusts will be deemed sufficient both to secure the rights of the Ordnance Department and the probable requirements of the service.

Commencing at the extreme East of the Cantonment at a point marked A being the junction of a small stream with the Lyemun Road, the Stream forms the Eastern limit of the Cantonment to its course,

from its source a line drawn due south until it meets the contour of 500 feet above the higher water mark as defined in Lieut: Col Johnson's map, completes its Eastern limits. This Southern limit follows the contour of 500 feet above high water mark until it cuts the westernmost branch of the stream which falls into the Nullah at the Murray Barrack. From intersection of this branch the Stream becomes the boundary to a point marked B, which is the intersection of the stream with a line drawn in the continuance of the line of the western wall of the Barrack Enclosure as far as the point marked C, which is intersection of the ramp of the road forming the South West limits of the Parade Ground, the ramp is here the boundary for 270 feet, thence
