Correspondence Relative to the Manawatu Block

[Translation.]

[Translation.]

Friend Edwards,—

Otaki, 14th September, 1866.

Salutations to you. Here is this letter now sent to you, a letter from Rangitikei for you to forward to the Government; you will look at the words, it is a letter informing us that the boundary posts of our land at Rangitikei have been drawn out. It is of no consequence, we will not be dark (sad); the decision is with the Court, because they are working in the presence of the law, as also ourselves, we are working in the presence of the law. The law will see (decide) the right or wrong on their part, also the right or wrong on our part, as the money has gone to the surveyor. That is all.
