In the cases of claims 6, 8, and 9 it appears that Squatters Licenses were granted to the Tenants of the Crown Lessees of Shaukiwan Lots No. 57, 58, and 147. In claim 6, the ground for which the Licences were granted being situate on the foreshore in front of those Lots, but separated from them by the Main Street, and the ground in claims 8 and 9 being immediately adjacent to and used with Lot No. 147. The claims of the Tenants were in each of these cases disputed by the Crown Lessees, who also claimed on their own behalf. The tenants have now come to an arrangement with their Landlords.
