Rawiri Motutere, Wi Kawaho, Karoraina, and Hopataia.
The reasons for reserving twenty-five acres to Rawiri Motutere and Wi Kawaho are explained in the memorandum enclosed, as are also those for reserving a small piece to Karoraina, and forty acres to Hopataia. The permission to Hopataia to purchase the balance over forty acres was given to encourage the growing desire of the Natives to purchase lands from the Crown.
