REPORT FROM THE COMMISSIONER OF NATIVE RESERVES.

PRESENTED TO BOTH HOUSES OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY BY COMMAND OF HIS EXCELLENCY.

AUCKLAND.

1871.

The Native Reserves in this Province have been set apart in the following manner :— 1. By contract made with the native sellers of the land. 2. By the voluntary action of the Governor in setting apart Crown lands as hostelry and school sites, and lands for the endowment of such institutions. 3. By agreement with fiieudly and loyal natives in lands taken under " The New Zealand Settlements Act, 1863." 4. By appropriation out of confiscated blocks for surrendered rebels. 5. At the instance of the natives ; and by the Governor, on the recommendation of the Judges of the Native Land Court. Several of the Reserves shewn under the first two heads had been entirely lost sight of until search was made for the purpose of compiling the attached schedules. In order to show the degree of responsibility attaching to the Government in respect to these reserves, I have classified them as follows :— Class A. —Trusts under provisions of Crown Grants or legislative enactment, — 1. With a distinct and specified purpose. 2. For the benefit of natives generally. Class B.—Reserved Lands, not under enactment, — 1. For a specified person or purpose. 2. For the benefit of natives generally. Class C. —Reserves under or to be brought under Native Lands Acts, — 1. Grant with limitations. 2. Land which should be made inalienable. 3. Granted lands re-conveyed to trustees. Under Class A will be found the Hostelry sites in Auckland and Onehunga, with the Hostelry Maintenance Reserves at Medianics' Bay and St. George's Bay. The particulars of rents, &c, of these reserves will be found under the head of " Utilization." In this class will, also, be found a large number of reserves made for surrendered rebel natives under the provisions of " The Confiscated Lands Act, 1867." The schedule shows 57 of these, comprising about 2,744 acres, as having been surveyed and allotted, and a further liability in land for 1900 natives, equal to 90,145 acres. In most cases certain named chiefs or heads of families hold possession of these lands in trust for their people. Provision will have to be made for the survey of these reserves. The schedules show that the period of probation of eighteen returned rebels, who are entitled to 727 acres of land at the Bay of Plenty, has expired. The conditions under which land was allotted to them appear to have been that the respective native, or " his heirs and assigns," should " continue loyal" till the Ist January, 1870, when he would become entitled to receive a Crown Grant. These grants should be issued with as little delay as possible to such of the natives as have fulfilled the conditions. It is necessary to draw attention to the character of several of the Crown Grants made to friendly natives under "The New Zealand Settlements Act, 1863," and "The New Zealand Settlements Amendment and Continuance Act, 1865." The grant of Te Akau, on the West Coast, near Waikato Heads, of 90,360 acres, of date 13th March, 1867, has the following Baben/rum : —" To hold unto the said Tamiliana Tunui" and 12 others, their heirs and assigns for ever, in trust for and to divide the same among themselves and the loyal natives of the tribes Ngatitahinga and Tainui, with power to the said grantees to lease the same for any period not exceeding thirty years." Power is thus given to the native trustees to decide as to who is and who is not loyal, in so far as participation in the estate in virtue of loyalty is concerned. The grant does not set forth whether loyalty at date was essential, or would be sufficient at some subsequent period. There are grants in trust for the benefit of the Ngatimahanga, the Ngatihaua, and the Ngatihorua tribes of the same nature. By Section 5, "Confiscated Lands Act, 1867," it is provided (hat the subdivision of such an estate may be referred by the Governor in Council to the Native Land Court. It is desirable that these grants should be brought before the Court, and a definite partition of the land made as soon as possible, as on the death of any one of the grantees, the heh's, whether loyal or rebellious, become trustees to hold or divide the estate. Another class of deeds is represented by that dated 21st October, 1865, by which an estate at Waiuku is granted " to Riporaha Taranga and her heirs, and after her death to Aihepene Kaihau and Hore Tauroa, in trust for the tribe called Ngatiteata." Also in the Grant to Piti Katipa, of 21st October, 1865. Jn these cases it is desirable, I think, that the land should be conveyed to the Queen before, if possible, the death of the first-named grantee, and fresh Crown Grants issued of a simpler character, as it is evident that after the death of the grantees their heirs and the named successors would, by the terms of the present Grant, have conflicting interests.

REPORT ON THE NATIVE RESERVES IX THE PROVINCE OF AUCKLAND.

REPORT EIIOM THE COMMISSIONER

Certain of the returned rebels settled in the confiscated blocks have asked to be allowed to lease or sell the land allotted to them. Except in extreme cases, as, for instance, where the land is unsuitable for the native mode of cultivation and an exchange might be desirable, compliance with such request ought not, I think, to be conceded. If surrendered natives could lease or sell their allotments, or if their residence on them were not made indispensable, the act of submission might be resorted to for purposes of gain only. It is desirable that natives who come in should experience the advantages of civilisation—of roads and markets in settled districts —and that their improvement in circumstances should be apparent to those who hold themselves aloof. This can only be effected by making the lands inalienable, and by issuing Crown Grants to those who have improved their holdings, and fulfilled a prescribed term of residence. When their holdings are made secure it does not appear objectionable that they should become liable to contribute, in money or labor, to the improvement of the roads in their districts.

UTILIZATION OF RESERVES. By the action of the Native Land Court the great mass of the Native Reserves in the Province of Auckland have been granted to the natives for whose benefit they were originally set apart. Schedule C—l shows that 207 deeds, conveying 258,735 acres, have so issued. These reserves are either grants! in trust, or with restrictions that prevent the grantees mortgaging or selling the land absolutely, or letting it for more than 21 years without the Governor's consent. These lands are of course removed from the immediate control of the Government, but a responsibility rests with the Governor in regard to them that entails the necessity of a supervision, as frequent applications are made to alter the terms or remove the restrictions contained in the grants. Mr. John White states that at the West Waiuku the native trustees have sold to white people some of the land granted to them in trust for themselves and relations in perpetuity. The following Native Reserves are let : — £ s. d« Part of Allotment 19, Section 9, City of Auckland, at per annum ... ... 75 0 0 Allotment 89, Section 1, Suburbs of Auckland 13 0 0 I.EASIS OR AGRKEMENTS SIGNED DURIXG 1871.

Do. ... 0 10 0 Allotment 50, Suburbs of Tauranga Do. ... 012 0 Total per annum £123 2 0 The above rates of the Tauranga lands are for the first seven years of the term, of twenty-one years. These lands had been for some time under agreement for lease, but owing to the existence of doubts as to powers under the respective Acts, they could not, until the present month, be definitely let. The Hostelry Maintenance Reserve No. 4, of Section 12, City of Auckland, has, until this year, remained unused. The footpath in common use from Auckland to Mechanics' Bay traversed its length, and access had to be free to a spring of water in the centre of the allotment. Upon offering, publicly, a portion of this land in March last for lease, objection was taken by the trustees of the adjoining estate of Hone Ropiha's to its probable enclosure. It appeared that the Crown had conveyed away a small street that had formerly given access (on paper) to Hone Ropiha's land in the rear of the hostelry reserve, which was then Crown land. The trustees claimed a right of way through the land, and as it appeared that they would suffei an injustice if the reserve were enclosed, a lano 12 feet wide was set out along the western end of the reserve to afford the required access. The ground lying between this lane and the spring was then offered at public auction on lease for 2L years, and let to Mr. J. T. E. Rogan for £14 a year. The Municipal Council have commenced the construction of a path outside of the reserve, it having already been intimated that rent would be required for the further use of the land. When completed this path will afford good frontage access to the remaining part of the reserve, which I estimate may yield about £15 a year on a2l years' lease. I propose that the sum of £40 shall be appropriated out of the proceeds of the hostelry lands for the purpose of leading the water from the spring to a fountain, to be constructed on the flat near the hostelry, where the water will be of benefit to the natives and the inhabitants of the neighl ourhood generally. The lease of the part let contains a provision to prevent the contamination of the water. At Tauranga four additional allotments may be expected to be let, and at Onehunga one lot, yielding together about £9 a year additionally in the course of the next year. The lease of the hostelry maintenance land at George's Point, Allotment 89, Section 1, will ex pire on the 9th June, 1573. Six and a quarter acres are here let for £13 a year. [ propose to divide the land into four building lots, which I estimate would yield an aggregate of £40 a year. The local authorities have lately taken down the native market sheds at the entrance of Queen-street Wharf. The hostelry site in Mechanics' Bay is too far from the centre of population of the city for the convenience of purchasers at a market. T therefore rcom.nend that a quarter of an acre of the reserve at Point Britomart, near the Breakwater, should be set apart for a native produce market site. The surface of the reserve is now 40 feet above the beach, but earth is required for filling the intake, and the alteration of level for as much space as will be required at first will present no great difficulty.

Tt is observed by the trustees of private trusts in Auckland that 21 years is too short a term to be attractive to good tenants. I respectfully recommend to the consideration of the Government the propriety of making 40 years the maximum period in all future grants of beneficial trusts to European trustees.* The foregoing sums, at their highest estimate, constitute, however, but a small income in relation to what is necessary for the legitimate—-I do not allude to the political—government of the Natives. Educational and industrial institutions for their benefit arc necessary, as well as hospital and luuaticand other asylums. All these expenses, which, whether borne by the Provincial or General Governments, must be heavy, might be met by landed endowments. I would, therefore, recommend a very considerable addition to be made to the reserves in confiscated blocks for such purpose, and append a list (list E.) of convenient lands. It is proper, however, to contemplate the arrival of a time when no distinction of race will exist as far as these purposes are concerned, and I would recommend that the terms of the tn'S* should not be of such a nature as to make the revenue available exclusively for the benefit of the Maoris, t By Schedule A—l it appears that there are 1,022,GG9 acres held in trust for the benefit of the Natives of the Province. By Schedule C—l it will be seen that there have been reserved for Natives, by means of restrictions in Crown Grants issued under the Native Land Court, an area of 258,735 acres, and by Schedules B 1, and 2it appears that in other ways 2G,5G8 acres have been set apart for their benefit. This aggregate area of 1,307,973 acres, together with the large area of unceded land which is still available for them, appears a tolerably sufficient provision for the future wants of a people that does not appear to be increasing in numbers. It is possible, however, that there may be some tribes that have sold recklessly, and are in danger of becoming paupers. The ramifications of famil}' and hapu make it a very difficult thing to arrive at the precise extent of land held by any one tribe, but a careful collation of the schedules with the map, aided by what information is available as to the numbers of the respective tribes, indicate the .Rarawa of Mongonu', the - Ngatiwhatua of Auckland, and the Patukirikiri of Coromandel, as those that have the least extent of land left in proportion to what they have sold. The schedules show that there are about 24,290 acres reserved for the Rarawa. The population of that tribe is estimated at 1,275 souls, thus the average is 19 acres per head. The Ngatiwhatua tribe comprises about 254 souls, and has 10,251 acres reserved, or 40 acres per head. The Patukirikiri. of Coromandel, have about 100 acres of cultivable land for a fast-diminishing population of 29 souls. This area would have been less, but for the reservation in 1857, at the instance of Mr. Commissioner McLean, of the Tsland of Motu Tapere, which is fertile, and in the midst of good fisheries. All their other land fit for cultivation at Coromandel the Patukirikiri have sold. They, however, have possessions by collateral relationship at Koputawake and Whaugapoua, so that there is no present danger of their becoming destitute. The extent, however, of the land they have sold within the last six years, amounting as it does to 6822 acres, shows that the temptations presented by the high value of land near a goldfield will induce natives to sell recklessly that which should be held sacred for their children. J Having regard, then, to the circumstances of these tribes with low areas of land, I would recommend that none of the cultivations of the Rarawa or Ngatiwhatua tribes should be allowed to be sold ; that an area of GCO aura should be made inalienable at Koputawake, and 600 acres lying immediately south of the Pungapunga stream, for the future wants of the Coromandel hapus. I also recommend that 1000 acres at Waitaia, Mercury Bay, should be reserved for the future wants of the Natives of that place, and 444 acres at Opito Point for the Natives of Otama. I would draw attention to the fact that there exist lar^e tracts of land at Hokianga and Bay of Islands that have reverted to the Crown as "surplus land," on old land purchases. To the sale and Crown Granting of this in the ordinary manner, as waste lands, there exist acknowledged difficulties — such, indeed, as to prevent their settlement These difficulties would not exist, however, in many cases if the lands were appropriated as endowments towards the support of Natives in local hospitals, and I think an arrangement might be made between the General and Provincial Governments, by which a lai-ge estate might thus be utilised, and the local revenue relieved of a liability that presses heavily. Schedule D shoivs lands granted to friendly Natives, in which no provision has been made for necessary roads. These lands have been allotted, apparently, under the provisions of " The New Zealand Settlements Act, 18G3," and Crown Grants issued under "The Friendly Natives Contracts Coiifirmation Act, 1866." Agreement was made, I believe, with the Natives to whom the land was allotted that necessary roads should within five years be taken, but no provision was made in the Crown Grants to that effect. The period for taking such roads expires on the Ist August, IS7I, and I thought it my duty to draw the attention of the agent of the General Government at Auckland to the circumstance, and to the desirability of taking the roads before the expiration of the term. At the suggestion of that officer I have drawn on the maps the several lines of road that appear necessary, and the Native grantees have been informed of the roads being required. * See Reports of Native School Trustees to the Diocesan Synod of Auckland, 1870. + The Endowment for the Hostelries ia " for Natives and other poor persons visiting Auckland." £ The Coromandel Native population in 1858 was 351 souls, in 1870 it appears to have been 280, showing a decrease of 71 souls in l'J years. — Pub Mr Fenton's compilation of Census Returns, 1859, and " Return of the Names of the Tribes of the North Island, &c," in Appendix to Journals, 1870.

Lying between the settlement of Eaglan and the "Waikato is an endowment estate of 10,000 acres for a Colonial University, and contiguous to it a grant in trust of 3,000 acres to the loyal chief Wiremu Nera, for the JSTgatimahanga tribe. As the main road from the Waikato to the West Coast would have to go in this direction, I was ordered by the Hon. the Native Minister, in February last, to report on the most suitable line for such road. I ex mined four different passes, and crossed the dividing range eight times, through a densely-wooded and mountainous country, and at length found a pass with easy gradients, and by which a road two miles and sixty chains shorter than the present mail track could be carried. The Natives, who are anxious to work-in the formation of this road, do not object to its being taken in part over their land. I have prepared a separate report and plan on the subjectof this road that will lie available for the information of the Assembly. CHARLES HEAPHY, Trustee of Native Reserves. Auckland, 19th July, 1871.

REPORT ON THE NATIVE RESERVES IN THE PROVINCE OF WELLINGTON. CHiEITABLE TRUSTS. Theeb is so much of Native interest and Governmental responsibility attaching to the Trust Endowments at Wellington that, though not strictly within my cognisance, 1 have included them in the accompanying schedules. These lands were originally amongst the reserved " tenths," selected as Native Reserves in pursuance of the contract between Col. Wakefield and the Native sellers of the Port Nicholson Block ; they were subsequently granted in trust for various religious, educational, and charitable purposes, from which Natives, in common with Europeans, might derive a benefit. Other lands belonging to the " tenths" have been appropriated by the Government to purposes conducing to the welfare of the Natives, but not so exclusively for their benefit as not to leave cause for dissatisfaction on their part. The Native office and hostelry, the Governor's stables, ard a part of the Te Aro barrack sites were among these appropriations. While the Natives participated in the advantages which such institutions as the college and grammar school, hospital and cathedral church conferred, the Europeans did so equally, or. from their larger numbers, to a greater degree. In the terms of the trusts no provisions exist by which the Natives are to enjoy peculiar advantages or a preference at these institutions, although the sites, and in some cases the endowments, are taken from lands which, by agreement, were to be inalienable as reserves for the maintenance of the Natives. It was declared by the Secretary of the New Zealand Company that the reserves were to be " held in trust for the l'esidium and proper maintenance of the chiefs, their tribes and families." * The purposes to which seventeen reserves have been appropriated are-— A cathedral church site A civil hospital site and endowment A grammar school endowment A Church of England school endowment A military barrack site, and A Native departmental office and hostelry site. It is impossible reasonably to aver that these purposes and uses are consistent with either the letter or spirit of the declaration above alluded to. The natives state that they have not a right to free access to the hospital, but admit that they obtain admission, the Government, or some one, paying the charges. As far as I am able to obtain information on the other side, it appears that a provision having been made in the terms of each trust deed to the effect that the Natives shall participate in the charity equally with Europeans, it was not thought unfair that some few of the Native reserves should be so appropriated. It is easy to understand how health and education were considered as indispensable to the well-being of the Maori as the "fitting maintenance" which the New Zealand Company's Agent had promised, f It is necessary, now, to ascertain how far the compact regarding the tenths was adhered to by both parties. In the first place it was broken by the Company in their Agent selecting the 11th, 22nd, and 33rd sections, instead of the 10th, 20th, and 30th, so causing the proportion to be an eleventh instead of a tenth. X Some additional land may have been given as an equivalent to the deficient area, but the whole of the reserves were of lesss value from the order of choice on which they were selected, being moved back. But the compact was broken in a more serious manner by certain of the Natives—those, noteably, of the south side of the harbour—omitting to give possession of the land to the Company when the reserves were ready for their occupation. It is no part of the present consideration as to whether it was wite to require or expect that the Natives would remove from their pas and cultivations; it is sufficient that they sold such places, and then, in many cases, declined to give them up. I am aware that it may be said that certain of the Natives had never received any payment for the land until the time of Col. McCleverty's enquiry. This may be true in exceptional instances, but not extensively, and such Natives received awards of land of far improved value. The manner in which Col. McCleverty himself viewed the ownership is shewn in the wording of his deeds, which, in nearly all, are as follow : —" These lands are given in lieu of lands on settlers' sections," or " belonging to settlers." * £cc also terms of sale of New Zealand Company's land, Ist May, 1839.—"110 sections will be reserved by the Company, who intend to distribute the same as private property amongst the chief families of the tribe from which the land shall have been originally purchased."— Vide " Supplementary Information relative to New Zealand," page 167. t It is provided in the terms of the cathedral site grant that the Native patients of the civil hospital shall have free sittings in the cathedral church. + The words used were—"Of the land ceded by the chiefs, a portion equal to one-tenth of the whole will be reserved and held in trust by the New Zealand Company for the future benefit of the said chiefs, their families and heirs."

ItEPORT FROM THE COMMISSIONER

The refusal of the Natives to vacate the pas and cultivations led to a compromise ; certain of the reserves were conveyed to the Natives respectively, and other lands, to the extent of about 12,205 acres in the Town and Town Bolt of Wellington aud the rural districts, made over to them in perpetuity. In addition to these the Government purchased several sections of rural land, and handed them over to the Natives for their sole use and benefit. It thus appears that the Natives received, outside the scheme of the "tenths" as much as 12,509 acres of suburban and rural land. Under these circumstances the morality of the appropriation of certain of the reserves for charitable trusts in which the Natives would fully participate cannot, I think, be reasonably impugned. But it is difficult or impossible to cause the Natives to understand that their own act was the occasion of the scheme of reserves being altersd. "We never goc any of the additional land awarded by Col. McCleverty"—some of them will argue—"others received that land, give us, as you promised, the rents of the reserves at Thorndon and Te Aro." To very many of the Natives this claim appears just, and in places far beyond the limits of the Wellington Province the misapplication of the reserves has for several years been the subject of discussion and censure. It may be wise, therefore, for the Government to make a concession—at the present time it could not be considered a sign of weakness. I would respectfully recommend — Ist. That payment of rent—the amount to be settled by arbitration—should be made by the Government for tiie reserves used for the Native office and Government stable 3, and for the site of the barracks at Te Aro. 2nd. And in consideration of the site and endowment 1-md of the civil hospital being original Native reserves, to make provision to secure to the Natives free admission to, and medical assistance at that institution. If this proposition, ox a reasonable modification of it be not agreed to by the Natives, the only course open that I could recommend would be to suffer an appeal from them to the Supreme Court. * The schedules for the Province of Wellington give the following areas, viz. :— A. R. P. Class A. I—Charitable and Religious Reserves .. ... 2,101 3 25 Class A. I—With a Specified Purpose ... ... ... 8,661 3 33 Class A. I—Reserves under Native Lands Acts ... ... 1,110 0 0 Class B.

On the dissolution of the Company it reverted to the Crown. Col. McCleverty, as the authorized agent of the Crown, agreed with certain Natives to grant them the pieces of land in question. Under such agreement the natives have a good equitable title, which the law would, no doubt, enforce, and which the Crown is prepared to maintain." —See Mr. Swainson's Memo, to Hon. Native Minister, of 2lst April, 1865. ■ • Mr. Attorney-General Whit.tker was of opinion that Col. McCleverty's reserves must be considered, for all practical purposes, as Native territory, not subject to the provisions of Native Reserves Act, 1850. Note.- -The following awards of Col.

REPORT ON THE NATIVE RESERVES IN THE PROVINCE OF HAWKES BAY. The Schedules appended show the aggregate area of the Native Reserves *o lie as follows :— A. R. P. Clan- A.

BS7 2 17 Class C.l.— Grants with Limitations ... ... ... 135,532 0 0 ( lass C. 2.—Land to be made Inalienable. ... ... 2,100 0 0 Class C. 3.—Granted Lands conveyed in Settlement* ... 18,132 0 0 105,105 3 3G According to the enumeration in a "Return of the names of tribes in the North Island," published in the last Blue Book, the Native population of Hawkes Bay consists of 1,897 souls. + These numbers show a proportion of about 87 acres of reserved land to each Native. In my Report of last year I stated that I had prepared thirteen deeds that wei'e either executed or in course of execution by Natives who had obtained grants to their estates through the Native Land Court, and were desirous to put the properties into trust to prevent the land from being alienated away from their children. I also drew attention to the desirability of altering, in the case of Trusts, that pait of the Native Lands Act, I^o9, which provides that no conveyance shall be valid that is not consented to by a majority, in value, of the co-grantees. The Crown Grants to Natives, issued under the Native Lands Acts, are generally to groups of ten persons, and that provision, although a salutary one in respect to ordinary sales, is an obstacle to placing the separate shares or interests of individuals in trust. It was found, practically, that as soon as three or four owners of an estate expressed a desire to place their lands in trust, there were, if the land were attractive, influences brought to bear from outside to prevent the eonenrrsnee of the remaining Natives, whose interests were immediately secured by European purchasers paying deposits of part, if not the whole of the purchase money. In this way the intention of several of those who desired to settle their lands on their children has been frustrated; and, in other cases, where the majority in value have signed the trust deed, the estate will be broken up between Natives and white men. Ot course the restriction applies equally where the majority in value are against selling, but an action at law would be necessary to prove the proportion of the relative interests. Anew Native Land Act is, I believe, likely to be introduced during the forthcoming session of Parliament. I would recommend the alteration of this law in as far as Trusts are concerned. By the 14th clause of the Native Lands Act, 1809, it is enacted that in respect to past transactions the proportions of shares or interests of any Natives in a group in i Crown Grant shall be considered to be equal. The Natives state that the effect of this is in some cases very unfair, and that in one case the smallest interests in a very valuable suburban estate —improved and *itli a mill worth ,£l,OOO upon it— were bought by white men whose interest, properly one twentieth each, became increased to one eigtht each by the enactment, the shares of tin- remaining co-grantees, who had not sold or moved their interests, being diminished eommensurately. This law, 1 respectfully suggest, should also lie amended or repealed. In order to ascertain how far it is wise further to reserve lands for the Natives of Hawkes Bay, 1 have prepared a return from the records of the Native Land Court of all lands in that Province granted with limitations (i.e., Native Reserves, class (!. 1) showing alphabetical!}* the names of the Natives for whom the reserves were made, and, as far as possible, their respective interests in detail and aggregate. The figures of this return considered in reference to the amount of land over which the title is not extinguished, and the extent and condition of the Native population will afford fair means of determining in future what land the Natives may safely be allowed to part With, and what should be made inalienable. By the sth section of the Native Lands Frauds Prevention Act, 1870, it is mado the duty of the Trust Commissioner, appointed under the provisions of that Act, to certify before any native land can become alienated "that sufficient land is left for the support of the Natives interested in such alienation." I bAVe supplied that offioer with a copy of the return above mentioned, and of all the information L was in possession of that would facilitate his work. •J'liis area cannot be accurately stated until the extent of cacli individual interest is defined by action of the Native I,and Court. ■(•This is, perhaps, below tlie amount. The Superintendent of Hawkes Bay estimates the number at 3,000, which would give an area of 55 acrrs to each Native.

The average proportion of 87 acres of reserved land to each Native, as shewn by the returns ; or, accepting the highest estimate of the Native population—3,ooo souls— ss acres is not of a character to cause much apprehension of the Natives having a scarcity of land for their future wants. The Auckland Provincial Government offered 40 acres for each adult immigrant, and 20 acres for each child ; or, roughly, 30 acres per head, as an inducement to persons to settle. By the New Zealand Settlements Act the General Government were enabled to offer 50 rural acres to each military settler, which, as nothing was given to the children, was not a higher rate than that of the Provincial Government. With these the amount of Native reserved land does not compare disadvantageously. But at Hawkes Bay much of the land is fit only for pasturage, and, relatively, a much higher rate ought to rule. It is, therefore, necessary that each individual transaction of Natives in selling their land should be watched by the Commissioner, especially as some of the Natives have but a very small area of their once large possessions left for their own and their children's uses. I have reccommended that the Trust Commissioner should be instructed to bear in mind the circumstances of the following Natives in respect to the sufficiency of land that is to be reserved for them, viz.:—the chief Te Heketa, who has no land reserved for him ; he is desirous of having Pohirau made inalienable. Paora Kaiwhata has no land reserved for him, he is desirous of having Otukarara. Paora Korokoro has no reserve ; he requires Pukehou to be secured in trust. The chief Noa Huke has nominally 262 acres reserved at Ngatarawa; he is desirous of having Te Torohanga reserved for his children ; and the chief Tareha te Moananui indicates Tutake Opake and Te Koau as proper to be made inalienable. There are 150 acres already reserved for Tareha, but, considering that chiefs position, I beg to recommend that these places be excluded from the possibility of alienation, and placed in trust as soon as possible. Charles Heathy, Trustee of Native Reserves. Auckland, 31st July, 1871
