Report of the Native Affairs Committee, 1883.

[No. 527.—Petition of Werahike Tahere and Others.]

No. 527.—Petition of Werahike Tahere and Others.

Petitioners say that their lands of Whakamaru Mangaiti are being injuriously affected by the action of companies and lawyers. They ask for a subdivision, that they may know their own land.

I am directed to report as follows:—

This petition came before the Committee on the 31st August, too late to consider it. Government is recommended to bring it under the notice of the Chief Judge of the Native Land Court.

3rd September, 1883.

[Translation.]
No. 527.—Pukapuka-inoi a Werahike Tahere me etahi atu.

E ki ana nga kai-pitihana kei te kino o ratou whenua i Whakamaru Mangaiti i nga mahi a nga page 26Kamupene me nga roia. E tono ana ratou Kia wehewehea te whenua kia mohio ai ratou ki o ratou nei piihi.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei:—

I tae mai tenei pitihana ki te Komiti i te 30 Akuhata, kaore i taea te mahi i te kore taima, engari e tono ana te Komiti kia tirohia e te Kawanatanga kia tukua atu ki te Tumuaki o nga Kaiwhakawa o te kooti whenua Maori.
