MAORI CHIEFS
To Make Presentation To Lord Gaiway (By Telegraph—Press Association.) AUCKLAND, May 6.
The Governor-General, Lord Galway, has consented to meet a deputation of Waikato Maori chiefs at Government House, Auckland, probably this month. The purpose is to present to his Excellency a waka-huia (feaihei box) as a parting gift. It will contain a loyal address from King Koroki, on behalf of Waikato and associated tribes, which, it is hoped, his Excellency will present to the King on his return to England.
Tlie invitation to meet the chiefs was extended to Lord Galway by Princess Te Puea Herangi.
