Bricks removed by workmen on the new road into the domain from Stanley street, Auckland, may be the remnants of a cottage occupied by Te Rauparaha, the great Maori leader, during his Auckland exile, according to Mr M. G. Lee, who gave a lecture on “The Life of Te Rauparaha” in Auckland. . Another opinion is that the cottage was situated further into the bush on the left-hand side of the road, and in order to verify his theory, Mr Lee will seek the assistance of records held by the Lands and Survey Department. •
