Reports of the Native Affairs Committee, 1881.

[No. 315 of 1881.—Petition of Niheta Kaipara and 3 Others]

No. 315 of 1881.—Petition of Niheta Kaipara and 3 Others.

Petitioners claim an interest in Kaingaroa (No. 1.), containing 103,393 acres. They complain that others received the purchase-money, and they got a mere trifle. They pray for inquiry and redress.

I am directed to report at follows:—

That there seems to have been no irregularity in the payment of the purchase-money for Kaingaroa (No. 1), and if the petitioners have any grievance, which is very unlikely, it is against their own people.

5th September, 1881.

[Translation.]
No. 315 of 1881.—Pukapuka-inoi a Niheta Kaipara me etahi atu e 3.

E Ki ana nga kai-pitihana kei te whai take ratou ki Kaingaroa (No. 1) ko ona eka 103,393. E whakahe ana ratou ki te tango a etahi i nga moni o te hoko, he iti noa te moni i a ratou ake. E inoi ana ratou kia ata whiriwhiria taua mea, a kia whakaputaina tetahi ora ki a ratou.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei:—

I te tika tonu te tuhanga o nga moni o te hoko mo Kaingaroa (No. 1) a mehemea he mate to nga kai-pitihana me tono atu ratou ki a ratou ano.

5 Hepetema, 1881.
