Honolulu, September 18th, 1873
R.A. Lyman, Esquire, Commissioner of Boundaries on Hawaii
Hilo
Dear Sir:
Until I received your letter of the 26th ultimate I was under the impression that I had applied to you for settlement of boundaries of J.W. Austin's lands on Hawaii. Kahuanui in North Kohala and Panau in Puna. As his attorney I now request you to define and settle the boundaries of those lands. The names of the lands on either side of them, and of the owners thereof, you know and I do not. The survey of Kahuanui was in Mr. Wiltse' hands. The land of Paunau in Puna is worth so little. I hope the expense of survey and settlement will also be quite moderate. I remain, Very respectfully Yours
Charles P. Bishop, attorney for the Austin Estate
