No. 233, Sess. II., 1887.—Petition of Waata Taiaroa and 3 Others.

Petitioners pray that a piece of land called Puharariki may be returned to them, as it was wrongfully included in the sale of Waiau by mistake.

I am directed to report as follows: That it appears from the report of Captain Preece, dated the 16th December, 1887, the petitioners have no claim to the land in question. The Committee, therefore, has no recommendation to make.

[Translation.]
No. 233, Sess. II., 1887.—Pukapuka-inoi a Waata Taiaroa me etahi atu toko toru.

E Inoi ana nga kai-pitihana kia whakahokia kia ratou tetahi piihi whenua e karangatia ana ko Puharariki no te rnea i he te whakaurunga atu o taua whenua i te hokonga o te Waiau Poraka.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei: Kua kitea i runga i te ripoata a Kapene Pirihi o te 16 o Tihema, 1887, kahore he take a nga kai-pitihana ki te whenua tonoa nei. Heoi kahore he kupu a te Komiti.
