Henry Early - I am a pensioner; I was formerly a soldier in the N. S. W. Corps, and then in the 73rd Regiment from which I invalided; upwards of 20 years ago, I purchased a Cottage in Sussex Street, I think in 1807, of one John Saxon of the N. S. W Corps; when I purchased it, Sussex-street was not marked out; Governor Macquarie and Mr. Meehan the Surveyor, came to my house, and the Governor informed me, that my house was in the Street, and must be pulled down. I told His Excellency I had purchased it, and I hoped he would give me something in lieu. He then directed Meehan to look at a spot of ground a little to the Northward and he said he thought that would do; Meehan then took a book from his pocket and made some minutes; Meehan told me to take possession of the piece he picked out, which I did. Shortly after I wounded my arm in firing a gun off at Dawess Battery and was called home to Europe; before I went, I sold my new piece of ground to a man named Hennessy for 7l. 15s. and a small balance of spirits; about half a pint; I gave Hennessy an assignment of the land; I can write a little; I should always know my own signature; I think it was in 1815 I assigned it; I had been in possession of it 5 years before I assigned it; I reared three children on it ; the ground was never measured to me; I bought wood but was disabled; I saw the allotment the day before yesterday ; a house called Paynes-house stands upon it; the house belonging to a Mr. Payne stands upon my allotment. Cross-examined- The house of mine in Sussex-street was about 24-12; I mean the house, (not the ground; I held more ground than was granted to me; I knew a man named Scott in the 73rd. Regiment; I bought the land of Saxton in 1809 ; Governor Macquarie pointed with his finger and said Early, you must take that land, in lieu of the land you bought of Saxton; there was a wooden wharf there at that time; but not one of stone; the wharf was about 150 yards from the house to the Southward; there was no wharf on my land; no wharf was thought of then; the place which I purchased of Saxton, and the place the Governor gave me, was about 50 yards a part; His Excellency never gave me any note of it; it was not not required in those days; Invalids landing in those days received a chit from the Surveyor General stating, that they might receive 100 acres of land for their services
