Report on the Murihiku Block by Mr. Mantell, 31st March, 1852.

I commence my description of the country at the south-west boundary of the Otago Purchase, the country within that boundary having already been described by those who have had better opportunities of examining it than were enjoyed by me. For convenience in description, I shall divide the country into four districts—

1	From Molyneux to Mataura.
2	From Mataura to Aparima.
3	From Aparima to Waikoau.
4	From Waikoau to the N. W. Angle.
