Nos. 410, 411, and 412, 1889,—Petitions of Toha Rahurahu, and 200 Others, Hoani Ruru and 32 Others, and Hoani Ruru and 24 Others.
Petitioners state that certain lands in Hawke’s Bay were dealt with by special Act, called "The Mohaka-Waikare Act, 1870." They pray that the lands may be now treated as held under Native title in order that the claims of the real owners may be investigated.
I am directed to report that, as the above-mentioned questions have already been inquired into by Government, this Committee has no recommendation to make.

Nos. 410, 411, and 412, 1889.—Pukapuka-inoi a Toha Rahurahu me etahi atu e 200, a Hoani Ruru me etahi atu e 32, a Hoani Ruru me etahi atu e 24.
E Ki ana nga kai-pitihana i whakahaerea etahi whenua i Haaki Pei i raro i tetahi Ture Motuhake, ko tona ingoa ko te Ture o Mohaka me Waikare, 1870. A e inoi ana ratou i naianei kia whakahaerea aua whenua, ano he whenua papatipu kia ahei te whakawa kia kitea nga tangata e tino whai take ana.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei: Kua oti noa ake enei take to uiui e te Kawanatanga, no reira kahore he kupu a te Komiti.
