Notice under "The Orimakatea Title Empowering Act, 1889."

Native Land Court Office,
Whanganui, 15th November, 1889.

In the matter of "The Orimakatea Title Empowering Act,
1889," and of a parcel of land called Orimakatea, being
the Allotment No. 145 of Block VI., Wairoa Survey Dis-
trict.

WHEREAS in the year 1867 a promise was made, on
behalf of the Government, that a parcel of land con-
taining 209 acres, more or less, being the Allotment No. 145
of Block VI. of the Wairoa Survey District, should be given
to certain Natives as a reward for military service :

And whereas such land has been granted (in error) to five
of such persons only under an award of the West Coast
Commissioners :

And whereas it is enacted by the above-recited Act that
the Crown grant so made in error shall be cancelled, and a
certificate of title issued in favour of all those Natives to
whom such promise was originally made, or the successors of
such of them as are dead, after due inquiry made by the
Native Land Court to ascertain the names of all those who
may be entitled to a share in the said land in pursuance of
such promise :

Now, notice is hereby given that a sitting of this Court
will be held at the Native Land Courthouse, at Whanganui,
on Wednesday, the 8th day of January, 1890, to inquire and
determine finally who were the Natives to whom the afore-
said promise was made, and who, as such, or as the succes-
sors of any that are dead, are now entitled to a share and
interest in the said land.

And the Court will thereupon proceed to make a final and
conclusive order therein, setting out the names of all such
Natives as it shall determine to be entitled as aforesaid, to
the intent that a certificate of title may be issued to them of
the said land called Orimakatea :

Provided, however, that such inquiry and order of the
Court shall not affect the validity of a certain lease of the
said land heretofore granted by the West Coast Reserves
Trustee.
