Upper Canada. 



General statement of public property in this province, commencing with the 

 year 1792, and ending in 1799, expressive of the respective articles of which the same 

 did consist with explanations. 



Navy Hall. — In 1792, underwent a thorough repair, with very considerable additions; 

 this house was for some time the residence of the Lieutenant Governor. 



At Navy Hall. — Another house was built as quarters for the Staff of the Province, 

 both of those houses are now, or were till lately occupied by the military stationed 

 at Fort George. 



The House generally called Butler's Barracks. — This House underwent a thorough re- 

 pair, and two Wings were added for the Legislature to meet in. This House was 

 since burnt. 



Queenstown Hutts. — Hutts sufficient for quartering the Corps of Queen's Rangers 

 were built in 1792. These Hutts are now fallen to decay. • 



Twelve Canadian Horses purchased in Lower Canada. — These Horses arrived at 

 Niagara in the Spring of 1793, but owing to the change of climate and food, added 

 to a distemper then prevalent amongst horses in this country, the greater part of 

 them died, and the remainder were ordered to be sold; the sums received on 

 this head are credited to the public in the Commissary of Stores Half-yearly 

 Accounts. 



Saw Mill on the Humber. — Built in 1793, it being then contemplated to make York 

 the seat of Government, a Saw Mill was erected on the River Humber for the 

 purpose of obtaining the necessary supply of boards and other lumber required 

 for public service, as could not be procured in a wilderness country distant from 

 any settlement more than fifty miles. This mill has cut the greater part of the 

 boards used for the public service at York and is lett for the current year at 

 one fourth of the lumber she might cut. 



Garrison at York. — Round Log Hutts were erected in 1793 and 1794 as quarters for the 

 Corps of Queen's Rangers.
