Telegram from the Bishop of Nelson to the Premier

Telegram from the Bishop of Nelson to the Premier.

Copy of telegram read to the House (see Hansard, 6th May, 1887, p. 121): "The Trust has received destitute children according to the grant, and when the repairs to the building now in hand are finished, by the funds which accumulated during the last few years, will be able to receive more children. It is, and has been, open to Maoris. I am prepared to maintain that the Maoris agreed to give the land for the purpose. It stands on the same basis as numbers of other trusts given in the same way.—Bishop of Nelson."
