exception of the Estate of Cawdor (10700 acres) all the much talked of Cow Pastures (leaving out rocky ranges) is granted away. (The granted land is shaded with Indian Ink) - The Grants of the Two "Cow pass" - "Cavenagh" and "Crawford" are scarcely worth accepting, of which the owners are I believe now aware - "Douglass" is good land but badly watered "D'Asutta's" is an excellent Grant - but the unfortunate man is without money - indeed it is well known the celebrated "Mr Terry" has made him large advances and will most probably soon be put into possession of the Estate - "Major Antill's", "Mr Runkin's" and "Mr Murdoch's" are also good Estates - There is but a very small quantity of good land to the Westward of Mount
