MOHI V. ORAIG.
To the Editor of the Herald.
Sir, —I am very glad to see the leading article about Mohi v. Craig, as the latter has suffered great injustice. Craig's transactions about timber commenced when I was Resident Magistrate at Coromandel in 1860-62 ; and as both parties came to me for advice, &c, I knew all about it, and saw that fair dealing obtained on both sides. Afterwards, as a land agent, the balance of money due was paid through me, after a full oral and written explanation of the whole of the transactions from beginning to end. Hiria (mother of Mohi), and Paora Matutaere, and others, were the parties concerned, as owners of the timber—Mohi being only a little boy.—t am, &c, H. li. Tuktoit.
