of Forestry Hosmer, concerning- a recommendation for a forest 

 reserve on the lands of Keaaii. Ohikilolo. Makua and Kahana- 

 haiki, on the Island of Oahn. 



Your Committee has consulted both the Land Commissioner 

 and the Territorial Surveyor, both of whom are acquainted with 

 the location in question. They both stated to us that they had no 

 suggestions to make. Surveyor Wall stated that he considered 

 it the proper line for the forest reserve. Land Commissioner 

 Pratt stated that before giving his final opinion on the matter he 

 should want to visit the land again. 



The Chairman of your Committee is well acquainted with the 

 land in question and has been for many years, and he is of 

 opinion that the proposed line is in the right place. 



Your Committee therefore recommend that the forest reserve 

 on the lands in question as recommended by the Superintendent 

 of Forestry in said report of November 29th, 1905, be adopted, 

 and that this Board recommend to the Governor in usual form 

 the setting apart of said land so described as a forest reserve 

 under the statute, reserving, however, rights of way from the 

 lands of Kahanahaiki and Makua to the government land of 

 Kuokala, lying on the northw^est side of said lands of Makua and 

 Kahanahaiki. 



We remain, 



Your obedient servants,
