Maori Lands for Sale by Public Auction.

Office of the Aotea District Maori Land Board,
Wanganui, 18th June, 1915.

NOTICE is hereby given, in terms of the Native Land Act, 1909, and the Native Land Amendment Act, 1913, and the regulations thereunder, that the land described in the First Schedule hereto will be offered for sale by public auction at the Theatre Royal, Taumarunui, on Saturday, the 24th July, 1915, at 2 p.m., on the terms and conditions set out in the Second Schedule hereto.

FIRST SCHEDULE.

TOWNSHIP OF HIKAIR0.

Hikairo Township is situated on the left bank of the Wanganui River, about three miles up from Kakahi, on the Main Trunk line. At this spot the Egmont Box Company is establishing a large timber-milling plant for the purpose of milling the timber from the bush on Taurewa Block of 28,860 acres. This bush is a very valuable and extensive one, and will be a source of employment for a large number of hands for many years. The railway-line connecting the mill-site with the Main Trunk line is now well under construction.

On the opposite bank of the Wanganui River there is also a large area of milling-timber at present untouched, but when access is provided by the railway to Hikairo that bush will no doubt soon give way to axe and saw. The timber will have to come out via the proposed township.

The land in this locality (other than the river-flats, which are pumice) is good, strong soil, with clay subsoil, and when cleared will develop into good dairying land.

The elevation at Hikairo is only about 650 ft. above sea-level.

SECOND SCHEDULE.

CONDITIONS OF SALE.

1. THE lands are offered at the upset prices shown opposite to each section described in the First Schedule hereto. The terms of the contract for sale of the lands being sold are summarized in clause 13 hereof.

2. The highest bidder shall be the purchaser of each lot. In the event of any lots not being disposed of at first offering, the Board may put any of them up again either separately or in groups. Any lot not disposed of at the auction sale shall remain open for selection at the upset price.

3. In the event of any disputed bid, the lot in dispute may be put up again at the last undisputed bid.
