No. 10.
Chiefs Te Wherowhero and Te Kanawa to the Chief Commissioner.

I will inform you—that is, the Governor and yourself—what blocks of land are free from contending claims—namely, the lands having an undisputed title, which we are now desirous of selling to you. Let those lands which are disputed be excluded; let them be settled by the survey.

Commencing at Pohonui, the boundary runs to Whatitiri-ka-papa; thence to Marutaha, to Parori, Waipara, Huka, Wharawharanui, Te Rete, Pakarikari, Hetai, Hawaiki, Te Okiokinga, Tokitangohia, Pukekohai, Kohemaru, Opohoi, Waitete, Tahurikotua, thence to Oraka, Tikowiwi, Mataora, Te Komiti; and meeting again at Wharawharanui. These are the lands which are free from conflicting claims. We therefore request that you will give us the payment for these lands.
