No. 12. — The Hon. the Colonial Secretary to His Honor the Superintendent, Otago

No. 12.
The Hon. the Colonial Secretary to His Honor the Superintendent, Otago.

Colonial Secretary's Office, Auckland, 6th November, 1855.

Sir,

Referring to your letter of the 15th September, No. 50, forwarding plans of the Town of Dunedin and Port Chalmers, and requesting grants for the reserves described, I have to inform you that the Public Reserves Act would not justify such a grant as that asked for by your Honor. Each grant should be of a specific piece of land and for a specific purpose.

I have, &c.,

Andrew Sinclair, Colonial Secretary.

His Honor the Superintendent, Otago.
