Description.—The land in Blocks I. and II., Ruataniwha, is
situated between the Tukituki and Waipawa Rivers; it is

for horse-traffic, and gives access to most of the sections.
Drays can be taken along the river-beds to both north and south
sides of the block, which is about sixty miles from Napier and
twenty miles from the railway-line at Waipawa.
