No. 99.—Petition of Hori Kerei Taiaroa.
Petitioner prays that the sum of £400, interest on £4,000 lodged in the Bank of New Zealand by certain trustees, and which interest the then Native Minister (Mr. Bryce) stated belonged to the Government, may be paid to the trustees, together with accrued interest during the past five years.
I am directed to report as follows: That the Committee finds that this is a petition twice reported upon (in 1880 and 1881) after full investigation. The Committee has no recommendation to make.
