Research notes
PART 2, the data and description - 'For figure see PART 1' (DOC-0335). A SEPARATE SHEET AND THEREFORE ITS OWN ROW; it is not a verso and does not carry the (verso) suffix, because it holds its own full dates and needs no inheritance.
VERBATIM: 'The diagram coloured Yellow represents 5136 Morgen and 73 Square Roods of Govt. Ground being Lot B of "Vogelstruis Leegte", situated in the Fd Cornetcy of Traka, Division of Prince Albert / Extending North and East to Govt. Land, / South to Lot A of Vogel Struis Leegte, and / West to Lot B of Slagters Kruis. / Framed from actual survey by, (Sgd.) J.W. du T. MelvillM. Govt. Surveyor. October 1862.'
Reference table - angles A 64.21.10, B 108.53.10, C 83.20.50, D 103.24.50; distances AB 2644.58, BC 1008.92, CD 2328.77, DA 1606.37 Cape Roods.
NOTE THE SHEET CONTRADICTS ITSELF ON THE WESTERN NEIGHBOUR: Part 2 writes 'Lot B of Slagters KRUIS' where Part 1's figure and SG 1911/1862 both have Slagters KUIL. Kuil is on two independent sheets and is almost certainly right, but the transcription records what Part 2 says. [TO VERIFY]
