GENERAL DESCRIPTION.

The Waihua Blocks are situated in the Wairoa County, Hawke’s Bay. The main Wairoa-Mohaka-Napier Coach Road runs through the sections. It is also expected that the route of the Napier-Gisborne-East Coast Railway will be in close proximity. Until this year these blocks have been used and occupied by Mrs. Glendenning as a sheep-station, and on the expiration of the lease portions thereof were again leased to Mrs. Glendenning and portions were set aside for sale by public auction.

It is good pastoral country, and well watered, and being on the sea-coast is good healthy sheep-country. The sections are distant about fifteen miles from Wairoa, and about two miles and a half from Mohaka.

Title: Land Transfer.
