The Chairman
Crown Lands Board
Sir
I see by the Weekly News you are about to lease part of the crown land in parish of Mangawai. I will ask you to be kind enough to survey a road through it. I having bought two hundred acres some years ago and having no road to it. I cleared a road through the land you advertise for lease (about 400 acres) so that [one] could get to Mangawai for ...y goods and other settler's have benefited by the same road and there must be a road there some time.
Your earliest attendance [I?] will oblige,
I remain,
Sir
Yours Obediently,
Charles Eyre.
