TTbanslation.] Wellington, 6th July, 1868. Emends—the men who were sent hither by Ngatiraukawa, salutations. , The Governor and Ministers have considered your speeches and the written statement which you handed in They have assented that the claims which have not been heard shall be brought before the Court The Government, however, does not order at what place the Court shall sit, nor what Judges shall preside. The statement will be sent to the Chief Judge, and the Court will decide for itself where it is right and fair that it should sit, and whether Mr. Fenton shall preside. The Government are very willing that he should come and have great confidence in him, as they have in Mr Smith. The claimants must consider that there are always two sides in a quarrel; and if a Judge is brought to please one side, that very fact is likely to displease the other. 5 * From your friend, H. Halse.
