No. 43.—Petition of Reneti te Whau Whau and 24 Others.
Petitioners state that a certain piece of land called Katikati, of which they give the boundaries, was sold to the Government by some of their people without the petitioners knowledge. They pray that the land may be returned to them.
I am directed to report as follows: That a similar petition was reported upon in 1881. The Committee has had no fresh evidence before it.

No. 43.—Pukapuka-inoi a Reneti te Whau Whau me ona hoa e 24.
E Inoi ana nga kai-pitihana mo tetahi piihi whenua i hokona e etahi o to ratou iwi ki te Kawanatanga i te mea kihai nga kai-pitihana i mohio, E whakaatu ana no ratou i nga rohe me te inoi kia whakahokia kia ratou taua whenua.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia kia penei: I puta ano te ripoata mo tetahi pitihana penei i te tau 1881, kahore he korero hou i whakaputaina ki te aroaro o te Komiti.
