Reports of the Native Affairs Committee, 1885.

[No. 249.—Petition of William Hughes and Wife.]

No. 249.—Petition of William Hughes and Wife.

One of the petitioners, Mere Hughes, alleges that certain lands were willed to her by Te Kahu o te Rangi, but that in the certificates of title which she believes to have been issued she has not been included to the extent she ought to have been, and has lost the lands; that she is entitled to lands in the West Coast confiscated territory which have been wrongly granted to other Natives. They pray that inquiry may be made into their claims.

Report and date same as No. 48.

[Translation.]
No. 249.—Pukapuka-inoi a Wiremu Hui me tana Wahine.

Ko tetahi o nga kai-pitihana ko Mere Hui e ki ana i Wirangia etahi whenua ki aia e Te Kahu o te Rangi, erangi ki tona mohio i roto i tetahi Tiwhikete take i whakaputaina kihai ia i uru ki roto i page 30etahi whenua a riro atu ana, e ki ana hoki ia e tika ana kia uru ia ki etahi whenua raupatu i te Tai Hauauru i karaatingia hetia ki etahi atu Maori. E inoi ana ia kia whiriwhiria nga take o taua tone.

E rite tonu ana te ripoata mo tenei pitihana me te ra i tuhia ai ki te Nama 48.
