The Hon. the Colonial Secretary to the Chief Commissioner.

Kawhia.Land Surveys to be Discontinued. Colonial Secretary's Office, Auckland, 6th March, 1856.

Sir,—

As great excitement seems to exist amongst the Natives at Kawhia, relative to the Government purchasing and surveying land in that district, I am directed by His Excellency the Governor to request you will be good enough to withdraw all surveys being carried on under your department from that district.

I have, &c.,

W. Gisborne,
(for the Colonial Secretary).

Mr. Commissioner McLean,
Land Purchase Department.
