of the foreshore purchases. The irritation consequent upon the acquittal of McCaskill has settle down but a feeling of distrust as to the justice of our Law Courts prevails I have written officially to Kemp recommending that the depositions in the R.M. Court and Supreme Court as well as the addresses of both councils and resume of the whole proceedings be translated and printedin the Waka Maori for circulation amongst the natives. As it is only possible to obtain these in Auckland from the Sup Ct. I wrote to Kemp about it. had the information been obtainable here I would have done it myself and sent it to you for approval. I think this the best course that can be done now. Your obedient servant E.W.Puckey
