An Epitome of Official Documents Relative to Native Affairs and Land Purchases in the North Island of New Zealand
Mangaoraka Settlers dispossessed
Mangaoraka Settlers dispossessed.
His Excellency whilst here having arranged that all such settlers who lived on disputed land, particularly at Mangaoraka, should remove (on their not being able to obtain the free consent of the Natives to remain) to the land he had purchased, having visited the Mangaoraka, and had several interviews with the Natives, I am sorry to observe no desire to allow the settlers to remain; consequently some of them have chosen land within the recent purchase.
