Reports of the Native Affairs Committee, 1888.

No. 234.—Petition of Hone Mohi Tawhai and Others (No. 2)

No. 234.—Petition of Hone Mohi Tawhai and Others (No. 2).

Petitioners, who claim to be the owners of a block of land called Tukituki, state that some years ago a portion of the said block was sold to a European for powder, guns, and blankets, of which he only supplied half. He willed the land to Penetita when he died. As he did not pay all he promised for the land, they now ask that that land, all but sixty-three acres, may be returned to them.

I am directed to report as follows: That this petition should be postponed until next session.

17th August, 1888
