Dear Sir
I have a small survey to have done of one acre of land that Government
reserved upon a Crown reserve that is granted to me. I request you will allow Major
Wilmot ?? to survey it as it must be done by one of your Deputies in granting the above request you
will much oblige.
your humble Servant
Zacheus Burnham
