[Translation.]
No. 117.—Pitihana a James Smith, Kai-whakahaere Paamu, o Greenfields, Lawrence, Otakou.
E inoi ana te kai-pitihana kia paahitia he ture kia ahei ai ia ki te whakaoti i tana hoko mo tetahi whenua Maori (wahio Puketarata Poraka).
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei, kaore kau he kupu a te Komiti mo tenei pitihana.
