WESTLAND LAND DISTRICT.

Second-class Land.

Situated on the south bank of the Wanganui River, nine
miles and a half below the bridge. Comprises almost wholly
swamp land, carrying manuka scrub, with scattered patches of
white-pine, rimu, and silver-pine. The soil is a fine deep
sandy loam, peaty in parts, resting on shingle. A main drain
of large dimensions is at present being constructed, and there
is satisfactory evidence that the swamp can be successfully
grassed when the necessary subsidiary drains have been cut
by the lessees. Harihari Post-office, on the main South Road,
to which there is a service by coach twice a week, is about
seven miles from the block — by metalled road for six miles
and remainder by track. The Wanganui Cheese-factory and
Herepo Telephone-office are within about four miles and
a half.

As witness the hand of His Excellency the Governor,
this fifteenth day of February, one thousand nine
hundred and thirteen.
