No. 252 of 1881.—Petition of Paora Parau and 26 Others.
Petitioners say that there is due to them £1,300 for fighting the Hauhaus, and pray for payment.
I am directed to report as follows:—
That the petitioners, shortly after the events referred to, made a similar application, and on the 25th January, 1873, Captain Porter, after careful inquiry, reported that there was no claim. The Committee has therefore no recommendation to make.
