Hoani Meihana said I hand in a list of the names of persons interested in the lower part of this block - list put in by Kerei to Panau being the names of persons interested in the middle portion of this Block list put in yesterday by Koro (N'Kauhata) read -

Reweti Te Kohu said I object to the list put in by Te Kooro - the list agreed upon by the tribe consisted of the names - my name is not in that list. It is prepared by Te Kooro alone - I think he was assisted by Mr Macdonald - and it is sanctioned by the court Confusion will ensure

Te Kooro said I object to Reweti's name - he was admitted by the Tribe - and his name was included in the first list - but now his name is included in the list of the Tribe put in.

Eru Tahitangate - I object to the list put in by Te Kooro The persons named by him as owning that land are not correct There are only a few persons to my knowledge which should be admitted - The tribe who owned that land is here and we have a list Mr Macdonald is the cause of our confusion I wish to put in the list that the Court may see who we think should be recognised

List put in by Eru Tahitangata

I live at Foxton - Otaki - I lived at Oroua and my friends live there

___'d by the Court Where do the persons live enumeration your .......

They live at Oroua

Te Koro said I admit Eru's relationship but he has no house at Oroua I am his relative

Hoani Meihana - said I live near to the land in question I heard the list of Kooro (N'Kauhata) read I think the statement by Te Koori is correct - and if persons went there they would see for themselves - Kooro's list read again - during which Eru Tahitangata and friends left the Court - and certified to as N'Kauhata by Hoani Meihana - I live at the junction of Oroua and Manawatu - but I am constantly in the habit of visiting these places as a teacher. The statement of Kooro is quite correct - they are all N'Kauhata - I have not heard any ............ that belong to Waikato - except those that are of N'Kauhata .....others

The Court decided to make a tribal Order in favor of N Kauhata for Upper Aorangi in accordance with the list of Kooro Te One - No Restrictions

Mar 23/73 List put in by Hoani Meihana - Rangitane - read

Te Reihana said I am a N Wehewehi my name is not in the N Kauhata list - I want it put in this list I live on the land

Ani said I am a Rangitane - I want my name put in

Hoani Meihana said - when we divide the land these people shall have their share

Kawana Huria said that 30 Ngatimairehau had been excluded

Peeti Te Aweawe said I have put the names down the list because they are the persons who have lived permanently on the land There are a number of relatives whom we admit but their interests are provided for by their relatives who are in the list. When the land is divided the residents will then call these relatives. I admit the old men and we will consider them.
