Iyl pcrs, Qualifications and Final Proofs. ! are
now lying in the pigcon-holcs of the Registers OF.
fee, upon which certificates can he issued rs soon
as FULL and COMPLETE COPIES ARE MADE.
To do the whole Of that work would REQUIRE the
constant labor Of the Register from two to three
years, provided that he had no other duties toner
form. But when it is known that two-thirds of
his time is occupied with conflicting donations and
presumption cases, persons having donation papers
in the Office may well look to the future for
their certificates and Patents. Believing that many
would prefer having their donations completed
now, rater than wait for the indefinite s.course of
human events, and being wellacquainted with the
business, ! am prepared to make out papers and
procure Certificates for claimants in all parts of the
Territory. ! will also attend to the preparation and
filing of declaratory statements and final proofs for
prescriptions, and drawing maps ofclaims and Town
ships, from the original surveys, for those desiring
them. For preparing the papers and procuring a
certificate for a donation claim, where there is no
conflict, my charge is five dollars. For preparing
andf ling'' declaratory statements and paying the
governmentfee, three dollars. For Township mans.
five dollars, and claim maps one dollar each. In
all cases the fee must come in advance.
Persons having bought land, acquired under the
Donation Law, cannot be too careful to see Certif-
Gates are issued. 4. NJ. POE.
