Lord REDESDALE said that, as some difficulty was
experienced by the inhabitants of Leicester-square
in ascertaining what were their rights in re-
spect to the garden, he would, although it was
too late in the session to obtain any enactment on
the subject, lay on the table a bill defining the rights of
the inhabitants of towns and cities to public gardens and
parks.
The bill was read a first time.
