Reports of the Native Affairs Committee, 1884, No. 2.

[No. 24, Sess. II.—Petition of Pene Ngahiwi.]

No. 24, Sess. II.—Petition of Pene Ngahiwi.

Petitioner, who resides at Hamilton East, in the Waikato District, states that one of the trucks employed in the construction of the railway line ran down a horse belonging to him and killed it; that the value of said horse was £25, which price was actually paid for it. No precautions appear to have been taken to guard against such accidents. He mainly depended on the horse for the support of his family. He prays for compensation.

Report and date same as No. 16.

[Translation.]

Ko to koutou kai-pitihana e noho nei ki te taha whakaterawhiti i Hamutaua e ki ana ko tetahi o nga taraka e mahia ana i runga i te raina Rerewe i rere mai ki runga ki tetahi hoiho a ratou, a mate iho, ko nga utu i utua ai taua hoiho e £25 ki tana titiro atu kihai i tupato te kai mahi o te taraka kei mate te hoiho, na nga mahi hoki o taua hoiho i ora ai ia me ana tamariki. E inoi ana ia kia whakaputaina tetahi ora mona.

Kei te Nama 16 te ripoata mo tenei me te ra i tuhia ai.
