Od., being the Interest which had accrued thereon, up to 30th June, 1850, amounted to £4988 7s. Od.; on account of which the sum of £2988 7s. Od. was received from Tolls collected up to 30th June, 1850, at said Harbour, thus reducing the Loan to £2000. The Security held by the Government for the above Loan, was at this date assigned over to R. K. Chisholm, Esquire, who assumed the above indebtedness of £2000; which amount, together with the several Annual instalments of Principal and Interest which had accrued on the same up to the 30th June, 1857, amounted to £2150.

I beg leave to state, that diligent search has been made in the Provincial Registrar's and other Departments, for the Security or Mortgage, once held by the Government, but without effect. Sir, In a Return, dated 1st instant, shewing the indebtedness of R. K. Chisholm, Esquire, on account of the Loan of £2500 to William Chisholm in 1831, to aid in the completion of Oakville Harbor; and furnished to the Honorable the Provincial Secretary, in conformity to an Address of the Legislative Assembly of the 19th April last, it is stated that, "The Balance of the Purchase Money "being £1500, payable by Annual Instalments of 10 per centum from 30th June, "1857."
