Report on Petition of Ihakara Tukumaru and 2 Others.
The petitioners state that at the time of the purchase of the Rangitikei-Manawatu Block, promises of reserves were made by the late Dr. Featherston and Mr. Buller, and that these promises have not been fulfilled.
I am directed to report as follows:—That, in the absence of evidence, the Committee have no opinion to offer.
John Bryce,
Chairman.
[Translation.]
Ko te Kupu a te Komiti mo runga i te Pukapuka-inoi a Ihakara Tukumaru me ona hoa tokorua.
E ki ana nga kai-inoi, i te wa i hokona ai te whenua i waenganui o Rangitikei o Manawatu i whakaaetia etahi porowhita e Te Petatone raua ko Te Pura, a kahore ano ki ea noa aua kupu.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei atu ki te Whare:—He kore korero whakatuturu i kore ai te Komiti e whai kupu.
John Bryce,
Tumuaki.
