to accept the areas allotted to them within 2 months from the

publication of the plan, and to sign an agreement within the

third month.

The latter period expired on 5th. October,

1889, but neither party had then accepted or signed an agree-

-ment.

The Land Officer, Bruce Shepherd, suggested

that Chu Chuen should be allowed to sign the agreements for the

whole of the Reclamation to Marine Lot 53/A on condition of his

undertaking to satisfy the claims of Yiu Chow and Stephens and

to indemnify the Government. This course was approved by the

Acting Attorney-General Leach and sanctioned by the Governor,

and the agreements were signed by Chu Chuen on 19th. December,

1889.

Chu Chuen settled with Mr. Stephens who

dropped out of the dispute.

At that time it was considered doubtful

whether back Section holders had rights or not to share in the reclamation, and it was presumably the intention of the Governm

-nent to let Chu Chuen and Yiu Chow settle the matter between

themselves either amicably or in a Court of Law.

Unfortunately the claimants could not settle

amicably, and both died leaving the matter unsettled.

Chu Ping is now the representative of Chu

Chuen, and Chan Ut Chiu and Pun Kon Shan have acquired all Yiu Chow's rights. Messrs. Johnson, Stokes and Master act for Chu Ping and Messrs. Ewens and Harston for the others.

In 1903 Chu Ping was let into possession of the whole of the Reclamation upon his giving a similar under- -taking to that given by Chu Chuen in 1889: and in the same

year Chan and Pun brought an action against Chu Ping claiming (in effect) a declaration that Chu Ping was a trustee for them

of the Reclamation opposite Sections B and D.

The Chief Justice (Goodman) decided in

favour of Chun Ut Chiu and Pun Kon Shan and on Appeal Sir Wa.
