H. Hanson Turton, Esq., to the Secretary for Crown Lands.

In reference to the plan of the Puketutu Reserve at Waitetuna, near Raglan, I beg to draw your attention to the accompanying sketch of Mr. Todd, the District Surveyor, as being the correct one according to the deed of sale, and so to be inserted in the Crown grant for which I applied. Mr. Breen, the surveyor, was misled by the Raglan Natives as to the starting-point of his straight boundary from Waitetuna to Ngatokorua-a-te-ra-Whatiora, on the Waipa; and so included 486 acres more land than what was included in my original purchase.
