lally, Ihave not however, as yet, received

quantities of land held by each, with terms of
their Leases, alsy reterred to in your letter.
Lobserve that you decline at present to
furnish the Government with particulars of
your agreement with Mr. Todd, butas in your
letter of Ist Sept., you informed me that you
had purchased the estate from Mr. Todd, and
(that you offered it to the Governinent as pur-
| chased by you, I felt no hesitation in asking
you to furnish me with the particulirs of it,
asl thought you would have no objection to
jdo 60,

As regards the purchase money, you stite
that it will be required in cash upon delivery
of the deeds of conveyance. The Government
are not prepared, nor do they think it: advia-
able to accede to these terms, nor if the fret

\is, a6 they belivve it to be, that you have five
‘years allowed by Mr. Todd to pay the pur-
chase money, do they think that you will on
