No. 55.
Memorandum.
Recommended that His Honor the Superintendent be communicate with in reference to the introduction of a clause into the Provincial Land Regulations, by which Europeans in certain districts may be enabled to obtain a title for the homesteads acquired for them from the Natives through the General Government.
The subject has been fully reported upon in my letters, as per margin, and I advert to it now in the hope that it may be considered by the Provincial Government when framing their new Land Regulations.
The letters, memoranda, and correspondence on the subject of homesteads generally, as referred to the Provincial Government, are recorded in the Colonial Secretary's office.
Donald McLean, Chief Commissioner
