Memorandum.
Land to the extent of 150 acres, by the direction of the General Government, was purchased at Waikawa, on the 16th April, 1868, for the sum of £300, to supplement the Native Reserve at Waimatemate and Tauhinu; and 150 acres was also chosen there in lieu of the same quantity at Hakataramea. The claim to this section was heard before the Native Land Court, at its sitting at Christchurch, in May, 1868, and a certificate of title ordered in favour of Rawiri Te Maire and the other surviving relatives of Te Wharekorari.
