Reports of the Native Affairs Committee, 1885.

No. 332.—Petition of Wi Teruru and Others

No. 332.—Petition of Wi Teruru and Others.

Petitioners state that, when the Court sat at Uawa, a block of land called Tauwharepapa was awarded to them. The land was afterwards divided into two equal parts, of 5,000 acres each. One-half they sold to the Government, and the other half they retained, and are living on it. They say they were induced to sign a lease of their portion with a purchasing clause, which they did not intend to do, as they wish to keep their land. They pray for relief.

Report and date same as No. 48.
