No. 793, 1901. —Pitihana a T. R. Erihana (T. R. Ellison).
E inoi ana te kai-pitihana kia paahitia he ture kia ahei ai ia ki te tuku piira ki te Hupirimi Kooti hei turaki i te whakatau a te Kooti Piira Maori mo te keehi mo te wira a Katerina Hape, kua mate, no Waikouaiti taua wahine.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei, ki te whakaaro o te Komiti me tuwhera he huarahi mo te kai-pitihana e ahei ai ia ki te kawe i tana keehi ki te Hupirimi Kooti, na reira ka whai kupu te Komiti me whakauru e te Kawanatanga he Pire ki te Paremete hei whakatutuki i te inoi a te kaipitihana.
