Mr. Sub-Protector McLean to the Chief Peotector.

In fulfilment of His Excellency the Governor's desire that you should be furnished with a copy of the map of the block of land recently purchased from the Ngamotu Tribe, showing the extent and position of Jand reserved for the Natives, I herewith do myself the honour of enclosing the same. The Rev. Mr. Bolland, the clergyman of the Church of England resident here, being desirous of purchasing two acres of land reserved (No. 16 on the map), as it is a desirable site for a church and schoolhouse, I beg to inquire if there will be any objection to this proposal.
