Superintendent’s Office,
Auckland, December 12th, 1859.
Sir,—I have the honor to acknowledge receipt of your letter of this day’s date, respecting an alleged encroachment on your land at the Otahuhu Bridge, and to inform you that the Provincial Land Surveyor has been instructed to ascertain the position of the Bridge in relation to your property.
I have, &c.,
J. WILLIAMSON,
Superintendent.
Edmund Foley, Esq., Otahuhu.
Auckland, 12th December, 1859.
Sir,—I have the honor to report that in pursuance of your instructions of the 8th instant, I proceeded on the 9th to the bridge over the Tamaki, near Otahuhu; built in 1849, and by measurement made there, ascertained that in order to lead the road fairly on to the bridge, and to leave room for any necessary repairs to the parapet, wall, &c., a deflection of the road to the South, commencing about 287 links from the river bank, and diverging to the extent of 17 links, would be necessary. I attach a sketch of such alteration.
I have the honor to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
CHARLES HEAPHY,
Provincial Land Surveyor.
His Honor the Superintendent.
TAMAKI BRIDGE.
Superintendent’s Office,
Auckland, December 13, 1859.
THE following correspondence is published for general information.
J. WILLIAMSON,
Superintendent.
Otahuhu, 12th December, 1859.
Sir,—I presume you are already aware of the fact that a portion of the Otahuhu Bridge stands on my land. Being about to commence building on the portion of it immediately adjoining the Bridge, I have thought fit to inform you of my intention, so that the inconvenience which the public may afterwards have to suffer from the carrying out of my plan may not be chargeable to my account for having neglected to forewarn your Honor in time of the project I have in contemplation. Next week God willing I will invite tenders for the erection of a brick house on the spot alluded to, unless your Honor may think fit to enter into some compromise that will compensate me for the loss I sustain by having a portion of the Bridge built on my property.
I remain,
Your obedient servant,
(Signed) EDMUND FOLEY.
His Honor the Superintendent.
