Dear Sir,
I have made and
sent to the Treasurer two deeds
of the passageways, and have
notified Mr Wadsworth of the
width of passage next to Wade.
The passage next to Packard
I have made 70 f. @ 33 1/3 = 23.33
next to Wade 87 f. @ 22 2/9 = 29.33
$52.66
Wade had made a claim of the
Corporation, which I need not stop
to explain here; but by the decision
of the Commee on Lots the claim
is disallowed, and I have
consequently estimated the space
between him and you as 5 f. 8 in wide
in front & 5 f. 4 in in rear, measuring
from the inside of his curb - which, after
deducting the 2 1/2 ft wide which
was conveyed to him, leaves
3 f. 2 in. wide in front for you & 2 f. 10 in.
in rear, or an average width of
3 feet, which by 29 f. long gives 87 f.
This I have asked permission
to amend the report to, at 22 2/4 in.
per foot or 1/3 of 4/8 - which
I trust may be satisfactory
to you. - I would not have
altered the measurement of it,
but for my belief that if the
plan which Mr Wadsworth
is making shows that width,
you would prefer to have your
deeds agree.
Very resp.y & truly yours
