Extract from the "Maori Deeds of Land Purchases in the North Island of New
Zealand."
On the 13th Dec 1866 the chiefs and people of the tribes Ngatiapa, Ngatiraukawa,
Rangitane, Wanganui, Ngatitoa, Muaupoko, and Ngatiawa, received £25,000 sterling
from Isaac Earl Featherston (Land Purchase Commissioner) for land situated
between the sea (western boundary), Rangitikei River to the mouth of Waitapu
Creek (northern boundary), Kai-Iwi stream to Pakingahau on the Manawatu River
(southern boundary). The payment was made to certain Chiefs nominated at a
general meeting of the tribes concerned at Parewanui on 14 Dec 1866, who were to
divide and distribute the money among the sellers. (Hunia Te Hakeke & Aperahama
