No. 111, Sess. II., 1887.—Petition of Ihakara Rangiahua and 5 Others.

Petitioners pray that certain reserves called Omanaia No. 5 and Karangatuoro, which were promised to them out of a block purchased by Sir Donald McLean in 1849, may be given to them as promised, as those reserves contain their eel-fisheries.

[Translation.]
No. 111, Sess. II., 1887.—Pukapuka-inoi a Ihakara Rangiahua me etahi atu Tokorima.

E enoi ana nga kai-pitihana Kia whakahokia etahi rahui e karangatia nei ko Omanaia No. 5, me Karangatuoro ki a ratou pera ano me te whakaaetanga a te Makarini i ki ai me waiho era wahi mo ratou i roto i te Poraka i hokona e ia i te tau 1849, no te mea he rahui mahinga tuna era na nga Maori.

Kua whakahaua ahau Ida ki penei: Me tuku tenei pitihana ki te Kawanatanga Kia whiriwhiria e ratou.
