Sir George's notice, in fact it is next to impossible to get on here without something of the kind. Puketapu natives are again pecking at each other about land and perhaps it is as well they should for coupled with the mortality amongst their children, it may end in our getting the land. I hear the Mokau Natives are getting dissatisfied about the non completion of the land sale at Awakino and only mention it for your information. Hoping Mrs. McLean is well, I remain, Dear sir, Very truly yours, H. Halse.
