The boundary shall be the centre of the said river or stream. Any subsequent transfer of land the boundary of which is so described under one undivided transfer shall be deemed to have conveyed the land up to the centre of the river or stream mentioned as a boundary in the original grant or diagram, and to have vested the ownership of the land as thus bounded in the holder of the title to the land. The Surveyor-general may amend of diagram to reflect the right boundary. Section 6 concerns boundaries in case of subdivided land.
