No. 56, Sess. II.—Petition of Henare Huruhuru and 3 Others.

Petitioners state that they are cultivating certain land at Oue, a portion of Waihopai, given them by the Government, lying between Oraka and Whakaputaputa. They pray that all the land at Oue, District of Waihopai, Southland, may be returned to them, as their ancestors are buried there.

I am directed to report as follows:—

That the Government having taken favourable action in this matter, the Committee has no recommendation to make.

1st November, 1884.

No. 56, Sess. II.—Pukapuka-inoi a Henare Huruhuru me etahi atu 3 e.

E Ki ana te kai-pitihana kei te ngaki ratou i tetahi whenua i One wahi o Waihopai i hoatu ma ratou e te Kawanatanga e takoto ana i waenganui o Otaka me Whakaputaputa. E inoi ana ratou kia whakahokia katoa tia nga whenua i roto i te takiwa o Whaihopai, Southland, kia ratou no te mea kei reira o ratou tupuna e nehu ana.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei:—

No te mea kua tahuri te Kawanatanga ki te whakarite i tenei mea, kahore he kupu a te Komiti
