Summary
"I have received a communication from the Commissioner of the State Land Office, which is herewith transmitted, in relation to extensive depredations upon the State lands, to which I have thought proper to call your special attention. The trespasses are deliberately and systematically perpetrated, chiefly upon lands remote from settlement, and by a class of men who have no permanent residence in the State. On this account it is extremely difficult, if not impossible, under the existing laws to detect and punish them. I recommend, therefore, the passage of some more effective law to enable the proper authorities to bring to retributive justice these marauders upon the public lands."--Page 1.
Note
The communication includes a letter from S.B. Treadwell, Commissioner of the State Land Office. Treadwell indicates that trespassers are stealing valuable timber.
