NATIVE LAND COURT NOTICES.

Order under Section 39 of “The Native Land Court Act, 1894.”

IN THE NATIVE LAND COURT OF NEW ZEALAND.

In the matter of the succession to the interest of Matuahu te Wharerangi, deceased, in Okahukura No. 6, Okahukura No. 8m, Oraukura, Rangipo North No. 2, Rangipo North No. 3, Taurewa No. 4, and Whangaipeke; and in the matter of the application of Wiripo Tohiraukura, on behalf of Tiahuiā Kiekie, under section 39 of “The Native Land Court Act, 1894.”

WHEREAS the said application was referred by the Chief Judge to the Native Land Court for inquiry and report, and the same has been duly reported on: And whereas the Native Land Court, by orders dated the 17th day of November, 1897, appointed Parekarangi Kiekie, Runga Kiekie, and Erina Taupoki Kiekie (in the said order erroneously named Eruini Taupoki Kiekie) to succeed to 1/10 share of the interest of Matuahu te Wharerangi in the several blocks above mentioned: And whereas it appears that the said Tiahuiā Kiekie is equally entitled with the said Parekarangi Kiekie, Runga Kiekie, and Erina Taupoki Kiekie to a share of the said 1/10 of the said interest, and that the name of the said Tiahuiā was by mistake omitted when the matter of the said succession was under investigation before the Native Land Court:

Now, therefore, for the purpose of rectifying the said mistake, and in exercise of the power in that behalf vested in me, as Deputy of the Chief Judge of the Native Land Court, by the said Act, and by section 39 thereof, I hereby order that the said several succession orders of the 17th day of November, 1897, be amended by adding thereto the name of Tiahuiā Kiekie as one of the successors to the interest of the said Matuahu te Wharerangi in the several blocks above mentioned, and entitled to 1/40 of such interest; and that the said several orders be further amended by striking out the figures 1/30, 1/30, and 1/30, where the same occur in the said several orders, after the names of the said Parekarangi Kiekie, Runga Kiekie, and Erina Taupoki Kiekie respectively, and by inserting the figures 1/40, 1/40, and 1/40 in lieu thereof; and that all partition orders that are affected by this order be also amended accordingly.

As witness my hand, this 4th day of August, 1904.

H. G. SETH SMITH, Deputy Chief Judge.

Order under Section 39 of “The Native Land Court Act, 1894.”

IN THE NATIVE LAND COURT OF NEW ZEALAND.

In the matter of the Puketapu Block, and of the application of Te Moana Papaku and others under section 39 of “The Native Land Court Act, 1894.”

WHEREAS the above-mentioned application was referred by the Chief Judge to the Native Land Court for inquiry and report: And whereas it appears that the six persons whose names are hereinafter set forth in that behalf have the same right in the said block as those who were admitted as owners thereof, but at the time the title to the said block was investigated their names were accidentally omitted:

Now, therefore, for the purpose of rectifying the said omission, and in exercise of the power in that behalf vested in me as Deputy of the Chief Judge of the Native Land Court by the said Act, and of section 39 thereof, I hereby order that the names of the six persons following—that is to say, (1) Kamekame Taupo, (2) Noni Himona, (3) Petera Himona, (4) Pawhara Pahiri, (5) Tangahoe te Rawahirua, (6) Te Karu Tupe—be included as owners respectively of one share each in the said block, and that the order of the Court dated the 24th day of September, 1897, determining the owners of the said block be amended accordingly.

As witness my hand, this 15th day of July, 1904.

H. G. SETH SMITH, Deputy Chief Judge.
