[Memorandum on Above.]

Mr. Domett,—

Reply that I arranged with the Natives; when at Akaroa, that they would sell this land for £200, receiving also a certain reserve which was to be adjusted by Mr. Watson. If, therefore, Mr. Godley will send over a surveyor to Mr. Watson, and the sum of £200, to be paid by the Association, who have all the land fund of the Canterbury district at their disposal, this matter will be at once adjusted by Mr. Watson.
