patch No. 155 of the 1st. May, I have the honour to transmit
for your information the enclosed copies of a Notification
issued on the 1st. August last constituting Long Harbour and
Jones' Cove a Man-of-War Anchorage. I have also to forward a
copy of correspondence which has recently passed between Sir
Henry Blake and Sir Cyprian Bridge on the subject of handing
over the Peninsula between Long Harbour and Jones' Cove to
the Naval Authorities to be used as a Rifle Range. No reply
has yet been received to Sir Henry Blake's letter of the 29th.
October. In the event of the proposals therein contained being
accepted by the Naval Authorities, I have the honour to re-
quest you to be so good as to inform me whether they meet
with your approval and whether I may be authorised to complete
the transaction forthwith. An approximate valuation has been
made of the private holdings in the Peninsula, which, if the
proposals are approved, are to be resumed at the expense of
the Colonial Government. According to the valuation the full
amount of compensation for all private rights will not reach a higher figure than $391.35. The private property consists of four lots with a total area of acres 0.89, worth at a HE RIGHT HONOURABLE
