No. 78, 1898.—Pitihana a Timi Waata Rimini.
E ki ana te kai-pitihana kua uru he atu tetahi wahi o Pukehina Poraka ki roto ki te hoko a te Kawanatanga, a e inoi ana kia whakahokia taua wahi ki nga tangata nona.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei, ki te whakaaro o te Komiti me tuku atu tenei pitihana ki te Kawanatanga kia mahia ai he ture hei whakatutuki i te inoi a nga kai-pitihana.
