No. 158 of 1881.—Petition of Huhana Boyes.

Petitioner complains that land at Waiari was sold by Mr. Doyle to Mr. Davis, the seller himself having no interest in it. Petitioner prays for inquiry and redress.

I am directed to report as follows:—

That the Government seems to have made minute inquiries into this case, which resulted in the conclusion that Mrs. Boyes had no claim. The land has been for many years held under Crown grant. The Committee has no recommendation to make.

[Translation.]
No. 158 of 1881.—Pukapuka-inoi a Huhana Poihi.

E Mea ana te kai-pitihana ko tetahi whenua kei Waiari i hokona e Toire (Mr. Doyle) kia Te Reweti (Mr. Davis) a kaore hoki te kai-hoko i whai take ki reira. E inoi ana te kai-pitihana kia rapua ano te tikanga o taua mea a kia whakaorangia tona mate.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei:—

E kitea ana kua ata whiriwhiria ano e te Kawanatanga taua mea, a ko te mutunga o taua whiriwhiri he whakatau i te kore take o Huhana Poihi. Kua maha nga tau e takoto karauna karaati ana taua whenua. Kaore he kupu a te Komiti.
