No. 63, Sess. II., 1884.—Petition of Susan Boyes (half-caste)

No. 63, Sess. II., 1884.—Petition of Susan Boyes (half-caste).

Petitioner states at the time of her marriage some forty acres of land, called Waiari, were given her by her relatives; that a Mr. James Davis fraudulently obtained a document signed by the page 7donors, and had the land included in a survey of his own land and a Mr. R. Fairnburn's. She prays for relief.

I am directed to report as follows: That a similar petition was reported upon on 22nd July, 1881, and, as no further evidence has been adduced, the Committee has no recommendation to make.

10th July, 1885.
