No. 21, 1890.—Petition of Joseph White.
Petitioner, who is a sub-lessee of Lot 1, Block I., on the plan of the Native Reserve, Greymouth, states that, through the promises of Mr. Alexander Mackay that he would be granted a renewal of his lease, he erected valuable buildings thereon. He now finds that the Native Trust has caused the said property to be valued and sold for the benefit of Mr. Patrick Comiskey, thus depriving your petitioner of his property.
I have to report as follows: That this Committee has no recommendation to make.
