No. 87.—Pitihana a Tiemi Hipi me etahi atu tekau ma ono.
E whakahe ana ki nga tikanga o te ture hou e meatia nei kia pa ki nga whenua Maori.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei, ki te whakaaro o te Komiti, i te mea e pa ana tenei pitihana ki nga tikanga whakahaere a te Kawanatanga, na reira me tuku atu ki te Kawanatanga.
