[40?] the hundred acres. He thinks that the Block
of land formerly Colonel Campbell's would be
a very suitable place for them and that
it might yet be procured for them, - part
of the lot is now taken from John Chisholm
and the remainder the Chisholms eventually
will have to part with. There is no
doubt the Indians should be on the
Harbour and have free access to it - now
they must necessarily trespass on the lands
of others and in passing and repassing
they are in habit of throwing down fences
and exposing the crops of the inhabitants.
Whatever injuries in this way they do, has
to be borne with lest worse might
happen. - I think the matter is worthy of
consideration and a treat might be
made to remedy the evil and at the
same time to render the situation of
the Indians better.
Yours affectionately,
