✨ Despatch Continuation, License Meeting
(137)
I have only to add that these arrangements are not
to interfere with the operation of any laws, which, in
accordance with the intention you have expressed,
you may have thought it advisable that the Local Le-
gislature should pass, for the purpose of enabling the
Natives, under certain restrictions, to sell their own
lands. I know that you so well understand the diffi-
culties of this subject, that I am well assured I may
safely rely upon your assenting to no laws of this
description, which are not really required by the cir-
cumstances with which you have to deal, and which
do not contain the best securities that can be provided
against abuse. I should also expect that in the Mid-
dle Island, which will be the principal field of the
Company's renewed operations, the acquisition by
the Crown, of the territory required for the Company,
will prove a matter of no difficulty, from the extreme
paucity of Native inhabitants.
I have the honor to be, &c.,
(signed) GREY.
