(No. 3.)
His Honour the Superintendent, Auckland, to the
Hon. the Colonial Secretary.
Sir,—
Herewith I have the honour to enclose a copy of the translation of a letter from the Native. Peneamene Tanui, to show that Mr. O'Halloran and Mr. Guilding (or one of them) have agreed to lease from the Natives the reserve of 1,000 acres in the Tairua Block, which the Provincial Government have reserved for a township.
I have, &c.,
G. Grey.
The Hon. the Colonial Secretary, Wellington.
