Note.—The reserves in class B1 above, were set apart in 1860 for the use and occupation of the Ngaitahu tribe, on the west coast of Canterbury. Those in A2 are of similar reservation, but were, with the consent of the Native, brought under the operation of "The Native Reserves Act, 1856." 160 acres of the quantity reserved at Makawiho was set apart for Kinihi and others, and 140 acres on the south bank for Tuarohe and others; 44 acres at the mouth of the river for Tuarohe; at Manakaiau 25 acres for Tuarohe; burial ground, three-quarters of a mile north of Makawiho Point, six acres, for Tuarohe; at Ohinetamatea, six acres, for Tuarohe.

Note.—Reserves 1, 1a, 2, and 3 have not! yet been surveyed. Reserve No. 1 is to be selected in the Township of Jackson's Bay, when laid off. The quantity originally reserved at Parenga was 200 acres, but was subsequently reduced to 50, in consequence of 150 acres having been selected in another locality in lieu of a proportionate acreage at Parenga.
