THE TARARUA ACRE.
TO THB BT)ITOB. Sib, —It would be very acceptable to all those who bad relations, or friends on board the Tarorua, to ascertain whether such friendk have been identified, and where the bodies have been buried. Would it not be well to publish from time to time a full list of aR bodies interred in the Tararua acre, together with a list of such bodies as have been removed to other places of interment ? I speak on behalf of some interested, who are uncertain where the graves of their lost relatives really are, and who naturally wish to have this sad satisfaction. Further, 1 would suggest, Sir, that a subscription list be started to provide a suitable monument, to be erected ia the Tararua Acre, and that the names of all those buried on the spot be inscribed, as a last mark of sympathy and respect. —I am, &c., SYMPATHISER.
