Description of Land.—These sections are situated close to the head of navigation on the Waima branch of the Hokianga River. The soil is everywhere of good quality, being a black volcanic loam, but is covered in many places with stone, which prevents a large part of it being ploughed, but clover grows on it luxuriantly.
