On Grants where more than one person is concerned, His Excellency has
seven shillings per hundred acres; and the public offices have half the
above-mentioned fees for each additional name, with the exception of
the Attorney-General, who has nineteen shillings and two-pence for each

entitled to two hundred acres, with an additional quantity on proof of
