SCHEDULE
MARLBOROUGH LAND DISTRICT.

Onamalutu and Cloudy Bay Survey Districts.

Situated to the north side of Kaituna Valley, about sixteen miles by good road from Blenheim, and varies in altitude from 200 ft. to 2,000 ft. It consists of hillsides of inferior to fairly good quality, and upon which the native grasses are increasing. Covered generally on the south with short manuka and fern, with a sprinkling of flax and scrub, and on the north generally with fern and patches of bush in the gullies; fairly well watered. The run is fenced only along portions of the boundary, and, as in addition to partly adjoining it is also intersected by freehold land, there is an expensive contingent liability in regard to the balance of the fencing.

Tone, Upcot, Kaitarau, Tapuaenuku, and Whernside Survey Districts.

| 159 (Kekerangu) | 74,400 0 0 | 13 years | 500 0 0 |

Situated generally in the Middle Clarence Valley on the left or north bank of the river between Boundary and Red Hill Streams, and extends to the summit of the inland Kaikoura Mountains. The altitude varies from about 300 ft. at Boundary Stream to 9,465 ft. at the summit of Mount Tapuaenuku. The quality of the soil varies very much, some of the land in the valley and low hills being good limestone formation; some fairly good flats and pastoral country, with much rough mountain-faces, said to be much infested with rabbits. The run is much cut up by small scattered freeholds, and the only access at present is through adjoining freeholds and leaseholds.
