Reports of the Native Affairs Committee, 1876.

[Report on Petition of Utiku Marumaru and 97 Others.]

Report on Petition of Utiku Marumaru and 97 Others.

Petitioners complain that they have been deceived as regards the sale of certain lands situated in the Rangitikei-Manawatu District, and that reserves which they have been promised have been kept back. They pray that investigation be instituted in the matter.

I am directed to report as follows:—That, in the absence of evidence, the Committee have no opinion to offer.

John Bryce,
Chairman.

6th October, 1876.

[Translation.]
Ko te Kupu a te Komiti mo runga i te Pukapuka-inoi a Utiku Marumaru me ona hoa e 97

E ki ana nga kai-inoi kua tinihangatia ratou i runga i te hokonga o etahi whenua kei te takiwa o Rangitikei o Manawatu, a ko nga porowhita i whakaaetia mo ratou kua puritia. E tono ana ratou kia kimihia te tikanga.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei atu ki te Whare:—He kore korero whakatuturu i kore ai te Komiti e whai kupu.

John Bryce,
Tumuaki.
