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.

No. 21, 1890.—Pukapuka-inoi a Hohepa Waiti.
Ko te kai-pitihana he kaitango riihi tuarua o te Rota 1, Poraka I., i runga i te mapi o nga Rahui Maori, i Kereimauta, e kii ana na runga i nga whakaae a Arikihanara Make ka tukua atu he riihi hou ki aia, i hanga ai e ia etahi whare utu nui ki runga i taua whenua. Inaianei kua rongo ia kua meatia e te Tari Tiaki Maori kia whiriwhiria nga utu o taua whenua a kia hokona hei painga mo Patariki Komihiki a na reira i riro ai te whenua o te kai-pitihana.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ripoata penei: Kahore he kupu a te Komiti.
