No. 301. Sess. II.—Petition of Michael Mullooly.

Petitioner states that in 1881 he legally purchased from the Native owners a block of land named Tuawhatu No. 1a, and paid cash for it; that a Native, not the original owner, applied to the Native Land Court to make the land inalienable for purchase, and succeeded in so doing. Petitioner prays for redress as at present he is without either the land or the money he paid for same.

Report and date same as No. 16.
