My dear Sir, The following were the proposals made by Mr. Wicksteed, in March last, with reference to the Station at Hauranga. That the Block of land should be leased to Mr. Cutfield for a term of 21 years at 8 per cent interest on the outlay or purchase money, with a right of choosing 300 acres for a homestead at about 10/- per acre, and of purchasing at once on these conditions; also guaranteeing there should be no interference with any part of the land by persons desirous of stationing there; as Mr. Cutfield had not only a previous right, but was peculiarly entitled to greater consideration and protection from his having been instrumental in acquiring the Station from the natives; with whom he had been in treaty for some time previous to the purchase being effected by the Government. I remain, my dear Sir, Yours truly, (Signed) Don. McLean. December 2nd. 1847. Tuesday, March 9th. 1847. About 4 in the afternoon left new Plymouth with W. Carrington and the Native Bob to commence the survey at Hauranga where I arrived at dusk and found Mr. Brown Cutfield William King and young Auty encamped by the river getting the tent pitched we had tea there whilst the Natives were busy talking and disputing as to whether they should dispose of their land. Slept in a snug house at the Hauranga Pah. Richd. Brown and young Auty came up in the evening the former slept with me in the house. Wednesday 10 March 1847. We breakfasted at 1/2 past 7 when willington Carrington arrived and the Natives of Hauranga came after breakfast to have a talk & protested in strong terms to let the Timuru river be the North boundary. I told them it was useless to offer opposition now & that we should not acknowledge any other boundary, After breakfast we commenced surveying. 1st. day W. Carrington - 10/6 1 - Epapi Chairman 1/6 A large stone to the South of Patooni called ''Anaituapeka'' is the boundary between the Hauranga Tataraimatea Natives. Timuru N.N.E. Katikura N.N.W.
