That is all, from Rkwi NgatimaniapotO. Piuiiu, Kihikihi, November 29, ISS2. TO Till: KDITOFt OF TFIH HERALD. Salutations ! :>ome time since we saw a itatcment in your newspaper to the effect that tin; NaUminiapoto had consented to give land to the Waikatos. This is our word, that of NgatimaniapotO, that we will net consent to give land to the Waikatos. This decis-ion has been settled by us, and is unalterable. !<>.'■ m tiik Whole of Noatimasiapoto. Mangaorongo, Nov. 29, ISS2.
Wo do not think that any such statement has ever 1 ecu made in our columns, and for this reason, that no one could say what the NgatimaniapotO would do. The matter was one entirely of speculation. The above letter must show the Waikatis their position, and what they have to expect from NgatimaniapotO. It ought to make them more axious than ever to embrace the offers made by Mr. Kenton, ami to secure land for themselves, which they can live upon with easy minds, as it is the land ol their ancestors.
