Recommendation. —The Waimamaku Natives feel strongly on the whole matter, particularly on account of the desecration of ancient burial-places, which to them were clothed with more than usual sanctity. The Court therefore recommends that action be taken under section 472 of the Native Land Act, 1931, or under special legislation to return to the Natives the burial-grounds in question and possibly portion of the old reserve if still vested in the Crown and unalienated. As witness the hand of the Judge and the seal of the Court, this sth day of August, 1932. F. 0. V. Acheson, Judge. The Chief Judge, Native Department, Wellington.
