8. Wairewa (Little River).

A reserve of 400 acres, in the proportion of 280 of bush to 120 of flax and fern land. The village is well situated on a rising ground near to a fresh-water lake of that name. A stream called Okiri supplies the inhabitants with good water, while the surrounding bush affords excellent wood. Every house has a chimney, and one house in particular—that of Tamati Tikao—is in a very comfortable condition.

Population, 40. Land under cultivation, about 10 acres.
