are written by persons who are home

claims on the lands including these

They are desirious OF completing their
titles. The delay they have experienced
- exnaperating and veXatious To them,
and their complaints are many. They
IRE all persons uf very limited means,
and their possessions are practically the
improvements they have made. Where
the parties have entered upon the lands
I'm good iaith and ARE now residing upon

am early aud prompt consideration and
settlement al their claims.
IL occurs Co me that the prompt con-
alteration al their claims would be-
nothing more or less than simple right

show that the governments anxious and
