The Resident Magistrate, Rotorua, to the Hon. the Native Minister.
Sir,—
I have the honour to report to you that some Europeans and Natives have been buried in a piece of land belonging to the Government. His Excellency Sir George Grey, when last here, requested me to apply to the Government to allow this portion of land to be set apart as a burial-ground. I beg to bring the matter before your notice now.
I have, &c.,
W. K. Nesbitt, Resident Magistrate, Rotorua.
The Hon. Colonel Russell, Native Minister.
