NATIVE TROUBLES
CONFISCATED LANDS PROBLEMS The Confiscated Lands Commission will sit in Whangarei shortly to hear evidence in connection with :i claim affecting land sold in the early days by the natives in the Omaha district. The contention of the complainants is that they sold an area extending from what they allege was then known as Coxhead’s Creek to The Mount, and then through the Tamaliunga trig to the shore near the mouth of the Pakiri River. It is alleged that the stream now known as Coxhead’s is not the one known as such at that time, and that payment was made only for land within a boundary direct from that point to the Tamahunga trig, so that the triangular area be.tween that point, the Mount and the river had not been paid for.
