No. 10.
His Honor the Superintendent, Otago, to the Hon. the Colonial Secretary.
Sir,—
In my despatch of 26th June last, I had the honor to transmit a map of the Public Reserves in Dunedin, with application that His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government would, in terms of "The Public Reserves Act, 1854," be pleased to grant the same to the Superintendent of this Province as a Corporation, and also to grant the land below high water-mark in the Upper Harbour of Otago. I now transmit a parchment copy of the above map.
I further transmit a parchment map of the Public Reserves of Port Chalmers, the seaport of Dunedin, with schedule of descriptive boundaries, in order to their being also granted as above, together with the land below high water-mark.
These maps are in a tin case.
I have, &c.,
W. Cargill, Superintendent.
The Hon. the Colonial Secretary, Auckland.
