Application of Proprietors of Lots 1349 & 1350 for leave to reconvey and receive new deeds.

The Secretary stated the application of Hon. John Lowell, Guardian of the minor heirs of Geo. H. Loring, and of Abby M. Loring, deceased proprietors respectively of lots numbered 1349 and 1350, on Oxalis Path, for leave to reconvey said lots to the Corporation, in order that new deeds may issue in accordance with the following statement, and for the reasons contained therein: _

In the year 1847, contiguous lots numbered 1349 and 1350, on Oxalis Path, each containing 300 square feet, were granted respectively to George H. and Abby M. Loring, In the year 1853 (the said George H. having deceased) a grant of 300 square feet was made to the said Abby M. of land additional to said lot 1350, but which was actually separated from said lot by lot 1349. At some uncertain period thereafter, an iron fence appears to have been erected around the whole of said land, including a passage way which had been reserved between said lot numbered 1349 and said addition to lot 1350, and a division fence was also erected, which left said addition to lot 1350 in an enclosure by itself, together with said passageway
