Petitioner prays, on behalf of self and hapu, that the law may be amended to admit of their claim on the Ngarara Block being heard as an original application; that a special Commission be appointed to investigate, or that compensation be granted for loss of the land through the action of the Native Land Court.

No. 199, 1891, Sess. II.—Pukapuka-inoi a Rako Eruera Wiremu Kingi. (Ripoata Nama 1.)

E Inoi ana te kai-pitihana mo te taha ki aia me tona hapu kia whakatikatikaia te ture kia ahei ai te whakawa i a ratou take ki te Ngarara Poraka i runga i tetahi tono i tonoa e ratou i mua. Me whakatu hoki i tetahi Komihana hei whakawa i aua take me tuku ranei i tetahi ora mo te ngaronga o tona whenua i runga i nga niahi a te Kooti Whenua Maori.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei: Kahore he kupu a te Komiti mo runga i tenei pitihana.

20 o Akuhata, 1891.
