The Author My name is Paul Thomas. I graduated with a first class honours degree in history from

Otago University in 1990. I worked as a researcher and writer for the Dictionary of New

Zealand Biography until 1993. From 1995, I was employed by the Crown Forestry

Rental Trust as a historian. Since 1999, I have worked as a contract historian on Treaty

of Waitangi issues, writing and advising on many different areas. My report, 'The Crown

and Maori in the Northern Wairoa, 1840–1865', was submitted to the Waitangi

Tribunal's inquiry into the Kaipara district. My report, 'The Crown and Maori in Mokau,

1840–1911', was submitted to the Te Rohe Potae inquiry.

Acknowledgements I am grateful to Leanne Boulton of the Waitangi Tribunal for overseeing this report. Ms

Boulton produced its tables, graphs and statistical research although I am the report's

sole author and have final responsibility for all parts of it. Ms Boulton explains the

methodology used for these statistics in appendix B. I also thank Dr James Mitchell and

Dr Barry Rigby of the Waitangi Tribunal for their assistance, as well as Tribunal

mapping officer Noel Harris. Philip Cleaver reviewed a draft of the report while Philippa

Wyatt provided valuable historical advice and Lauren Zamalis carried out much-

appreciated copy-editing. Although the errors and shortcomings of this report are mine

alone, I would like to acknowledge the many historians and writers who have produced

reports to this inquiry dealing with the Native Land Court. This overview is built on

their work.

Introduction This report provides an overview of the Native Land Court in Te Paparahi o Te Raki

between 1865 and 1900. It is a summary and synthesis of the many pieces of technical

evidence to this inquiry that deal, in differing ways, with the Native Land Court. This

report aims to bring together, in one readily accessible document, some of their key

findings and investigate how the Court impacted upon Maori communities in Te Raki.

My focus has been on identifying broad patterns and regional variations and

similarities. I have not attempted to touch on every issue related to the Court in Te Raki

or to detail in minutiae all of its operations.

The report is organised around four chronological periods. Chapter one looks at the

period between 1865 and 1874, when Te Raki Maori brought an estimated 39.1 percent

of their land under the Native Land Court system. David Armstrong and Evald Subasic

suggest that this period was the highpoint of Te Raki Maori optimism and interaction

with the Court.

However, there was no headlong rush towards the Crown's new tenurial system and

initial enthusiasm for the Court quickly cooled. Throughout this period, Te Raki Maori

kept most of their land in customary tenure while seeking Court-awarded title over

select areas.

Nonetheless, Te Raki Maori were drawn to the Court because it was – and would remain

– the only way in which they could gain legally recognised title over their land and sell it

if they chose to do so. With only sporadic Crown purchasing in the area during this

period, the immediate risks to Maori of Court title were restricted. Instead, individual

Maori gained title over generally small areas that were then sold or leased to individual

Pakeha. Secure, Crown-recognised title was also attractive to Te Raki Maori in areas

subject to tribal or local disputes or threatened in other ways. For Te Raki Maori, the

impact of these many small-scale hearings was mixed and complex. The full

consequences of the Court's individualisation of customary title would become more

apparent in later periods.

3

The new Court regime had a more dramatic effect in the parts of Te Raki where Crown

purchasing was most intense, especially in Mahurangi and around Puhipuhi–

Whakapara. In these areas, the Court awarded large blocks of Maori land to a few

individuals who were already under, or would soon come under, pressure to sell. It did

not place alienation restrictions on most of these lands or closely investigate whether

other Maori were connected and relied on them. The result was that a few years after

title determinations were complete, Mahurangi Maori were virtually landless while

most of Puhipuhi-Whakapara had been purchased by the Crown.

Chapter two examines the period between 1875 and 1880 – key years that, more than

any other time, determined the Native Land Court's impact upon Te Raki. No other

period would see so much land titled by the Court and purchased by the Crown. During

this time, the Native Land Court system cemented its dominance in Te Raki and

emerged as a key element in the Crown's land purchasing programme in the region. It

awarded large areas of communally controlled land to small numbers of individual

Maori who were already arranging to sell to the Crown. This led to unsuccessful

protests from Judge F E Maning that the Court's legislative, protective, and investigative

responsibilities were being ignored in a rush to facilitate Crown purchase. From this

point onwards, the Native Land Court was inextricably connected, in the view of Te Raki

Maori, with harmful land loss.

Chapter three examines the rising resistance to the Native Land Court by Te Raki Maori.

It was increasingly clear, by the 1880s, that extensive Court hearings and the

unprecedented levels of land loss of the mid and late 1870s had damaged local

communities and their economy. Not only had most of their land been lost, but local

Maori were largely unable to farm or develop the Court-titled land that remained in

their possession. Resistance to the Court took many forms, including political protest,

use of Maori committees and runanga to adjudicate on land issues, and the

establishment of a Rohe Potae around Motatau in which use of the Court was

prohibited.

This resistance – and diminishing pressure from Crown purchasers – meant local Maori

increasingly refused to bring their remaining customary land into the Court system.

4

Nonetheless, by the 1880s, the Court was an entrenched feature of Te Raki Maori life

and even its staunchest opponents were unable to avoid the institution altogether. It

was the only way in which local Maori could gain legal title over their land. To not

participate in title determination would allow others to gain and sell the land. By the

end of the decade, over 77 percent of Maori-owned land in the inquiry district had been

clothed in Court title. The Court continued to award land to a few claimants–

prospective vendors without closely considering how this could affect local Maori

communities. During this period, there were also a number of protracted, divisive, and

expensive hearings involving larger blocks that led eventually to Crown purchase.

Chapter four examines the strengthening resistance to the Court in the 1890s amidst a

resumption of large-scale Crown purchasing in the area. During this period, the key link

between the Court and Maori land loss remained unaltered: the Court issued legal title

to individual Maori who could sell their interests without reference to the wider

community. Nonetheless, a new type of interaction between Court and the Crown’s land

purchasing agents had emerged. Crown agents no longer sought to influence – implicitly

or explicitly – Court decisions. Instead, they exploited and benefited from them.

During this decade, the Court regularly awarded blocks to dozens or even hundreds of

individual Maori owners. This hyper-individualised title was matched by a new method

of Crown purchasing. Crown agents no longer made advance payments and entered into

pre-title negotiations with a few select individuals. Instead, they waited until the Court

had identified all the many legal owners of a block before gradually acquiring their

uneconomic, undefined interests. If some owners refused to sell, the Court would

partition out the sellers’ and non-sellers’ interests, awarding to the Crown large and

generally contiguous areas of land. Non-sellers were often left with small, isolated areas

highly vulnerable to continuing partition and purchase and burdened by survey and

other court-related costs. Maori land in Te Raki was mired in a cycle of fragmentation,

individualisation and alienation.

This new phase of Court-facilitated Crown purchasing deepened the resistance of Te

Raki Maori to the entire official titling process. They attempted, often in association with

the Kotahitanga movement, to boycott the Court and have it replaced. Non-Government

5

sanctioned native committees continued to operate in the area while a cluster of lands,

including the Rohe Potae, remained under customary control. These attempts to avoid

the Court, while not completely successful, resulted in a decided drop in the amount of

Maori land in Te Raki that was coming under the Crown's tenurial system.

By 1900, Maori life in Te Raki had been transformed. The Court system was major factor

in the alienation of most Maori-owned land in the region and the landlessness or near-

landlessness of many communities. The Court system had altered almost beyond

recognition the communal structures and land tenure of most local communities. It had

failed to replace this traditional tenure with a stable and appropriate form of land

ownership that allowed Te Raki Maori to thrive in the new colonial economy.

Nonetheless, Te Raki Maori resistance to the Court had, against considerable odds,

achieved some significant victories. An estimated 17.8 percent of Maori-owned land in

the region in 1865 remained under customary tenure in 1900.1

This made Te Paparahi

o Te Raki one of the few parts of New Zealand at the turn of the twentieth century with

substantial areas of customary land. As other reports to this inquiry discuss, Te Raki

Maori would, in the early part of the twentieth century, continue to be at the forefront of

Maori attempts to find an alternative to the Native Land Court.

Report Scope, Methodology, and Limitations This report provides an overview of the Native Land Court in Te Paparahi o Te Raki

between 1865 and 1900. At the outset, it should be noted that my report is not intended

to be an exhaustive discussion on the Court in the inquiry district. That would be a

massive enterprise far exceeding the scope of the commission and the time available.

Instead, my aim is to provide a summary and synthesis of available evidence relating to

the Native Land Court on the record of inquiry and to highlight key themes and issues.

A key source in this endeavour is David Armstrong and Evald Subasic's report on land

and politics in the inquiry district, which includes considerable analysis of the role of

the Native Land Court. Paula Berghan's narratives provide basic information and

sources on the many individual blocks within the inquiry district. A large amount of

technical and tangata whenua evidence discuss specific blocks and areas.

Another goal of this report has been to examine patterns and variations in Court activity

and impact across the five sub-regions that make up the inquiry district (Figure 1).2

This has borne inconsistent results. As will be discussed, it is both possible and useful to

consider the Mahurangi and Gulf Islands sub-region as a distinct geographical entity

with a unique relationship to the Court. This area was subject to sustained Crown

purchasing before 1865 at a level unmatched elsewhere in the inquiry district.

Immediately after the Court's introduction to Te Raki, Mahurangi Maori went to the

Court seeking legal title over virtually all the remaining Maori-owned land. The great

majority of this land was subsequently alienated, mainly by the Crown.

The other inquiry sub-regions – namely, Whangarei, the Bay of Islands, Hokianga, and

Whangaroa – did not have such a clearly defined, individual interaction with the Court.

The Waitangi Tribunal's contemporary boundaries for these sub-regions do not

correspond closely to the Court's activities. The report does attempt to discuss the

Court's processes and influence in each of these four hearing regions. But it has proven

more useful to look at the Court's impact over these four sub-regions, and the entire

inquiry area, as a whole. This is integrated with examinations and case studies

examining the Court’s impact on particular local communities, areas and blocks.

Given the limits of the available source evidence, this report does not address in detail a

number of issues mentioned in the commission. For instance, while the report does

outline specific evidence relating to survey and other Court costs incurred by the Maori

applicants, a systematic assessment of the issue has not been attempted. Similarly, I

have sighted relatively little specific evidence on the role of Native Assessors in the

Court process. Appendix B discusses in more detail whether evidence was available for

specific issues raised in the commission.

2 As explained in Appendix B, the boundaries for these sub-regions were defined by the Waitangi Tribunal in 2005.

I would like to stress a crucial, if obvious, limitation to this report. It deals only sparingly

with the overall context in which the Court operated. A key theme for this report is the

link between the Court system and the Crown's purchase of Maori land within Te Raki. I

do not mean to suggest by this that the Court was the only factor in Crown purchasing.

The nature of Court title, at least at certain times and situations, made it easier for the

Crown to purchase Maori land in Te Raki. But a detailed assessment on the reasons why

local Maori sold land is largely beyond the scope of this report.

It is also important to reiterate that the report, as a whole, is not based on original

research. Given the focus of the commission and time constraints, I have not examined

many undoubtedly useful primary sources. In particular, a thorough study of the

relevant Native Land Court minute books has not been attempted. Instead, I have relied

on the extracts and summaries of minute book material contained within a number of

the reports submitted to this inquiry.

Another limitation has been that, at the time of writing, a number of reports relating to

specific blocks were not complete. In these cases, I have cited and relied on the latest

drafts available to me. All quotations are derived from the technical evidence rather

than from the original sources. I have not used macrons for words, names, or place

names in Te Reo Maori.

The statistical information, tables, and graphs in this report are based on research

carried out by Leanne Boulton, Senior Research Analyst/Inquiry Facilitator at the

Waitangi Tribunal with the assistance of other Tribunal staff members. Dr Barry Rigby's

research on Crown grants issued for blocks in the inquiry district has also been used. In

appendix B, Ms Boulton discusses the statistical methodology used in more detail.

But it is worthwhile to note here that these statistics, tables, and graphs are intended to

provide a useful and, as far as is possible, reliable snapshot into the Court's activities

and impact. They do not claim to be precise or definitive beyond scrutiny. The Court's

notoriously unreliable record-keeping is just one factor among many that would render

such a claim to be foolhardy. Instead, the more one delves into the Native Land Court's

nineteenth-century activities in Te Raki, the more one is aware of the uncertainties and

8

confusion that surrounded and still surrounds the institution. This overview is an

attempt to cut through some of that confusion while remaining cognisant that, despite

the many valuable reports to this Tribunal dealing with the Court in Te Raki, much

remains unknown.

Background to the Commissioning of this Report This report was commissioned by the Waitangi Tribunal as part of the local issues

research programme (LIRP) for the Te Paparahi o Te Raki (Wai 1040) inquiry.

In October 2013, the Chief Historian of the Waitangi Tribunal produced a review of the

evidence required for Stage 2 of the Te Paparahi o Te Raki (Te Raki) inquiry.3 In regard

to the Native Land Court from 1865 to 1910, he concluded that there was generally

‘insufficient research coverage at the sub-regional and local levels of the history of

Maori land during this period, especially as experienced by local Maori communities’.4

• case (or local) studies of native land blocks, 1865–1910;

As a consequence, he recommended that a coordinated suite of research into the Native

Land Court be commissioned including:

• a report on the operation of the papatupu block committees system;

• a report into the local impact of Native Land Court processes and decisions on

Maori communities, and;

• validation reviews of Native Land Court block titling and alienation data.5

Consultation with the parties regarding these recommendations then took place,

including a judicial conference at Waitangi on 16 November 2013. On 24 December

2013, Judge Coxhead, the presiding officer for this inquiry, issued a direction approving

the commissioning of a report on the ‘local impact of Native Land Court processes and

decisions on Maori communities, 1865–1900’.

Given the limited time available, the scope of this report was narrowed with the aim of

producing an overview of the role of the Native Land Court and its processes in the

titling, retention and alienation of Maori-owned land in the Te Raki inquiry district from

1865 to 1900. A major aim was to analyse patterns and variations in Court activity

across the region and over time.

The report was commissioned on 20 June 2016 (attached to this report as appendix A).

The report was to address the following matters to the extent that source information is

available and accessible and that time permits:

a) What sub-regional patterns can be identified in the operation of the Native

Land Court in the Te Paparahi o Te Raki inquiry region up to 1900 in respect of

initial title determination and subsequent litigation, partitioning, the notification,

location and length of Court hearings, the evolution of Court business (in

particular partitions and successions), the judges and assessors involved, and the

survey and other Court-related costs incurred by Maori applicants?

b) What sub-regional patterns can be identified in the protections provided

through the Court process in the inquiry region?

c) What sub-regional patterns can be identified, in broad terms, concerning the

outcomes of the Court's operation in respect of the titling, retention and

alienation of Maori-owned land in the inquiry region up to 1900?7

Tribunal Statement of Issues This report is relevant to topic 5 of the Te Raki Statement of Issues for Stage 2: ‘The

Native Land Court, 1865–1900’. In particular, it contributes towards answering the

following specific issues questions:

d. What was the nature of, and reasons for, Maori engagement with the Native Land

Court process in the Te Raki inquiry region? What was the impact of the Native Land

Court on Te Raki Maori who chose not to engage with it? Did Maori have any alternative

way of transacting their lands other than by first obtaining a Crown title through the

Native Land Court system?

e. How did the institution of a new native land tenure system impact on the exercise of

traditional leadership, tikanga, and community decision making in respect of land?

g. Was the Native Land Court an appropriate body, with robust processes and

mechanisms, to determine the customary ‘owners’ of Maori land? Did the Native Land

Court require certainty as to the identity of the parties transacting land and their

authority to do so before determining title? To what extent were Te Raki Maori experts,

or matauranga Māori, relied on in determinations of Maori customary rights?

i. How did the Native Land Court system impact on Te Raki Maori whanau and hapu, on

their identity, their traditional connections to the whenua, their tikanga, their wairua,

their whakapapa, and on their way of life?

j. Did the Court’s development and application of principles of succession reflect the

transmission of rights under tikanga? What was the effect of these succession principles

on Te Raki Maori landowners?

k. Did the Crown have a duty to ensure that the rules and procedures affecting prior

notification and the conduct of the Native Land Court hearings were fair and reasonable

for Te Raki Maori? Was the Crown aware of difficulties that may have arisen, and did it

act adequately to address problems such as non-attendance of all right holders?

m. What was the impact of participation in the Native Land Court process for Maori,

including court fees, survey costs, attendance costs, medical costs, loss of income and

roading deductions? Did the impact vary from whanau to whanau? In what ways, if at

all, did the Crown seek to mitigate these costs? To what extent were these costs fair and

reasonable?

11

n. Were protective mechanisms, such as restrictions on alienation, available to Maori

landowners? How were these mechanisms used, if at all, and what impact did they

have?

o. Did Te Raki Maori demonstrate any opposition towards the operations of the Native

Land Court? If yes, how did the Crown respond, and was this response adequate?

q. To what extent, if any, were legislative protections, such as restrictions on alienation,

available to Te Raki Maori landowners, and what impact did these have? Were these

protections sufficient to address perceived problems arising from the impact of the

Native land legislation and the operation of both the Native Land legislation and Native

Land Court? Were protections associated with the Native Land Court process made

sufficiently clear to Te Raki Maori and was there an obligation on the Crown to ensure

such protections were effective?

r. Did the title options available to Te Raki Maori provide sufficiently for effective

participation in the developing colonial economy?’8

The Crown’s Position on the Native Land Court to 1900 The Crown has made a number of concessions in the Te Raki inquiry regarding the

operation of the Native Land Court and its impact on Maori communities between 1865

and 1900. These include:

Individualisation of Title Undermined Tribal Structures • The Crown concedes that the operation and impact of the native land laws, in

particular the award of land to individuals and enabling individuals to deal with land

without reference to iwi or hapū, made those lands more susceptible to partition,

fragmentation and alienation. This undermined traditional tribal structures which

were based on collective tribal and hapu custodianship of the land. The Crown failed

to protect those collective tribal structures which had a prejudicial effect on the iwi

12

and hapū of Te Paparahi o Te Raki and was a breach of Te Tiriti o Waitangi/the

Treaty of Waitangi and its principles.

Ten-owner rule • The Crown concedes that the 10-owner rule had the potential to cause prejudice to

Maori in circumstances where:

o some right holders were omitted from titles and disposed of their interests as a

result;

o the named owners acted individually in a manner contrary to the wishes or

intentions of the wider community; and

o there was a subsequent succession of interests where there was no allowance for

wider community interests.

• The Crown concedes that in these circumstances the ten-owner rule did not operate

in a manner that reflected the Crown’s obligation to actively protect the interests of

Maori in land they may otherwise have wished to retain in communal ownership

and this was a breach of Te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi and its

principles.

Lack of Collective Title • The Crown concedes that its failure to provide a legal means for the collective

administration of Maori land until 1894 was a breach of Te Tiriti o Waitangi/ the

Treaty of Waitangi and its principles by failing to actively protect Maori interests in

land they may otherwise have wished to retain in communal ownership.9

1. Chapter One: The Court comes to Te Raki, 1865–

1874 1.1. Introduction This chapter looks at the first decade of Native Land Court activities in Te Paparahi o Te

Raki. Te Raki Maori showed considerable initial interest in the Crown's new tenurial

system. The reason for this was only too apparent. The Native Land Court was the only

means by which they could gain legally recognised title to their land – and sell parts of it

if they so chose. Between 1865 and 1874, well over a third of Maori-owned land in the

inquiry district was brought under the Court system and hundreds of new blocks were

established.

The consequences of this new system, and especially the fact that individuals became

the absolute, legal owners of land that had previously been communally controlled,

would prove to be vast. It is no exaggeration to say that the introduction of the Court

began a process of transformation and irrevocable change for local communities. Over

time, the Court system would be an important factor in massive land loss in the region

and come to be viewed by many Te Raki chiefs as a central threat to their people and

their land. But between 1865 and 1874, the ultimate impact of the Court system was by

no means certain. This chapter examines the diverse early experiences of Te Raki Maori

with the Native Land Court.

1.2. Te Raki in 1865 The Native Land Court arrived at a precarious time for Maori in the Te Paparahi o Te

Raki inquiry district.10 Trying to reinvigorate a stagnant economy and an increasingly

marginalised region, Maori had from the 1840s 'sold' considerable amounts of land to

the Crown, including some of their most economically important areas. Vincent

O'Malley argues that Te Raki Maori expected – and had been promised – that these

transactions would bring them economic development through increased European

settlement, infrastructure, and constructive engagement with the Crown.11

10 Vincent O’Malley, ‘Northland Crown Purchase, 1840–1865’, CFRT, 2006, Wai 1040, A6, p 515

But by 1865

and the arrival of the Crown's new tenurial system, the promised townships and

11 O’Malley, A6, p 515

14

progress were nowhere to be seen. The majority of Te Raki Maori were reliant on the

gum trade for their subsistence and survival, while their ability to utilise their land in

more sustainable ways, including growing, processing, and trading food, was

contracting.12

Rather than encouraging prosperity and accord, the pre-1865 transactions had resulted

in confusion and mistrust. O'Malley argues that the Crown purchases were 'frequently

so poorly conceived, implemented and documented as to lack all validity’.13

The

overlapping and sometimes shambolic nature of these transactions, and the Crown's

failure to define clearly the land it was claiming to purchase, frustrates attempts to

assess precisely how much land was alienated.

Nonetheless, the submissions to this Tribunal on pre-1865 Crown purchasing agree that

by 1865, Te Raki Maori had legally lost ownership of a significant portion of their tribal

estate. O'Malley estimates that the Crown purchased nearly 800,000 acres prior to

1865.14 The Crown, in its statement of position and concession (SOPAC) for this inquiry,

states that it purchased 853,446 acres and, when factoring in old land claims and pre-

emptive waivers, that Te Raki Maori had lost a total of 1,145,124 acres by 1865.15 Barry

Rigby's validation reports provide somewhat lower but still substantial figures. He

posits that by 1865 a total of 765,197 acres had been alienated in Te Raki, including

522,034 acres through Crown purchases.16 Only about 14,000 acres of land was

reserved from these purchases for future Maori use and even these were not safe from

alienation. By 1865, the Crown had already purchased some of these reserves and

would acquire more in the coming years.17

Rigby emphasises that the lack of scientifically accurate surveying in Te Raki before 1872, and the difficulty of assessing the amount of overlap between Crown purchases and old land claims, means that these are best estimates only. 17 Barry Rigby, ‘Pre-1865 Te Raki Crown Purchase Validation report’, Waitangi Tribunal, 2016, Wai 1040, A53, p 6; Rigby, A56, p 2

15

By 1865 and the introduction of the Native Land Court, Te Raki Maori retained in

customary tenure an estimated 55 percent of the inquiry district.

(Alienation figures are derived from Rigby, ‘Pre-1865 Te Raki Crown Purchase Validation report’, Wai

1040, A53, p 11. Total known acres remaining as customary land at 1865 is the sum acreage of the 1,058 Native Land Court blocks identified to date – see title determination master sheet in Appendix C).18

Graph 1: Proportion of Te Raki inquiry district alienated from Maori ownership prior to 1865

With regard to the five sub-regions established for this inquiry, the communities of

Mahurangi and the Hauraki Gulf Islands had lost the largest percentage of their lands.

They were, as the Crown has conceded, 'virtually landless' by 1865.19

some years for the Crown to assert practical control over its acquisitions. According to

some calculations, the Crown and Europeans had acquired 56 percent of land in the

Whangaroa sub-region by 1865. Whangarei, the largest of the sub-regions, had also seen

large-scale land purchasing, and perhaps 40 percent of the area was no longer legally in

Maori ownership. A combination of old land claims, pre-emptive waivers, and Crown

purchasing had alienated approximately 45 percent of Maori land, including some of the

most valuable areas, in the Bay of Islands.20 There were apparently no pre-1865 Crown

purchases in Hokianga but local Maori had lost legal ownership of around a quarter of

the area due to Crown grants following private transactions.21

In short, the Native Land Court had a vital and delicate responsibility in Te Raki. Many

local Maori considered legally recognized title was essential if they were to develop

their lands, control the alienation process and interact productively with Europeans.

The Native Land Court was the only means by which that title could be gained. As will

now be discussed, the Court system had an immediate impact in Te Raki.

1.3. Crown Title Takes Hold in Te Raki Between 1865 and 1874, the Native Land Court had a significant albeit varied impact

upon Te Raki. In a few areas, it almost completely swept away customary Maori title

with large-scale land loss quickly following. Elsewhere, local Maori interacted with the

Court more sparingly, receiving legal title over parts of their land while keeping

substantial areas outside of the Court system. Despite these important local variations,

in many ways this first decade represented the highpoint of interaction between the

Native Land Court and Te Raki Maori. More of their land went before the Court in this

period than in any other chronological period used for this report.

20 O’Malley, A6, p 15 21 Wai 1040, #1.3.2, pp 11, 14-23. These estimates of the percentage of land loss should be taken as indications only. They are from the Crown's concessions but it should be remembered that in A56, p 6, and elsewhere, Barry Rigby argues that the Crown has over-estimated pre-1865 land loss and under-estimated post-1865 land loss in Te Raki in terms of acres. Moreover, the lack of precise and agreed figures on the size of either the sub-regions or the inquiry district as a whole renders attempts to give percentages of land loss more problematic still. Any attempt to come up with a percentage of total land loss must therefore be heavily qualified.

17

From 1865 onwards virtually all remaining customary Maori land in Te Raki came

under the Native Land Court system. This transformation was well underway by the end

of the Court's first decade. By 1874, the Court had awarded individual title to 325,200.2

acres, 39.1 percent of all Maori-owned land in the inquiry district in which the date of

titling is known (see table and graphs below).22 The total amount of land titled during

this first decade exceeded even the extraordinary years from 1875 to 1880 when the

Court worked frantically to keep up with the Crown's purchasing programme in Te

Raki.23

NB: This excludes 104 blocks (103,269.5 acres) where date of titling is unknown

22 Note that the percentage of previously customary land titled in any period is based on the customary land that was titled in a known period. It excludes those lands that were titled at an unknown time. It also excludes the unknown amount of land that remains in customary title today. Evidence of how much, if any, customary land currently remains in Maori ownership in the inquiry district is not available, although it is assumed that it is a relatively small amount. 23 The short period between 1875 and 1880 had a higher average acreage of title determination per year than the longer period between 1865 and 1874.

Graph 4: Proportion of known acres titled by the Native Land Court in each time period, Te Raki inquiry district

The immediate impact of the Court is more notable still when the number of blocks

established in its first decade is considered. There are records of when 954 Native Land

Court blocks in the Te Raki inquiry district were titled between 1865 and 1990. Just

under half of these (469 blocks representing 49.2 percent) were created between 1865

and 1874. In no subsequent period would Te Raki Maori seek title over so many blocks.

If anything, these numbers under-estimate how quickly the Crown's titling system took

hold in the Te Raki region. The statistics for the first decade do not take into account the

blocks, some of them large in size, where the land titling process had begun but had not

been completed.

The Court had considerable initial impact upon all five sub-regions in the Te Raki

inquiry district albeit with one significant variation. As detailed below, by 1874 nearly

all remaining Maori-owned land in Mahurangi and the Gulf Islands was under the

Crown's tenurial system. In all but the Whangaroa sub-region, approximately one-third

of Maori-owned land had passed through the Court by 1874. In the Whangaroa area just

over 20 percent of the known Maori customary land had been titled by the Court by

1874.

There were important local variations in the degree of interaction with the Court within

the individual sub-regions. But it is clear that by 1874 customary tenure in the Te Raki

district as a whole was under challenge. The Crown's tenurial system had taken a

significant step towards completely extinguishing customary tenure. Some of the key

early features of this transformation will now be discussed.

1.4. The Individualisation of Communal Title As many works have argued, the Native Land Acts, under which the Native Land Court

operated, were shaped by two interrelated ambitions. The Acts were intended by the

Crown to facilitate the purchase of Maori land and extinguish tribal tenure.24 Initially,

the second part of this agenda progressed more quickly in Te Raki than the first. This is

because from 1865 to 1874 there was no sustained Crown purchasing programme in

the inquiry district. Pre-emption had, according to many officials, not led to the

purchase of sufficient amount of Maori land. Settlers were now to be allowed and

encouraged to directly purchase Maori land themselves.25

However, private purchasing

and settler interest in Te Raki during this period proved to be limited while the

Auckland Provincial Government sought to acquire only specific areas. The extent of

land alienated during the Court's first decade in Te Raki varied considerably depending

on locality.

Despite this, the Court's initial impact in Te Raki was anything but minor. Submissions

to this inquiry argue that traditional tenure in the district revolved around communal,

conditional and overlapping land rights.26

But between 1865 and 1875, almost 40

percent of Maori-owned land in the inquiry district was rendered the legal property of

individual Maori. This helped lay the foundations for later land purchasing on a massive

scale and the gradual weakening of communal land use and society.

According to Armstrong and Subasic, it did not initially appear that the Native Land

Court would have such a radical and destructive impact on Te Raki. Many local leaders

and communities showed initial enthusiasm for gaining legal title over their land and

the Court seemed to offer them considerable collective control over the title

adjudication process. Under the Native Lands Act 1862, tribes rather than individuals

could apply for Court hearings. Two Maori 'judges' or assessors and a European

president, in conjunction with local communities, would investigate and establish

defined tribal boundaries. The Governor would confirm the Court's decisions and, if

deemed necessary, set aside tribal and individual reserves to ensure that Maori

maintained sufficient lands. Once the tribal area had been defined, registered, and

carefully surveyed, the tribe would then have the option, if it so wished, to subdivide

parts of the area into smaller units legally held by families and groups or to sell areas

directly to settlers.27

The Act became operative in 1864 and Native Land Courts were established, including

under Judge John Rogan in the Kaipara and Whangarei district, and under Judge George

Clarke in Hokianga.28 Between 250 and 400 Maori attended hearings in Whangarei

under Judge Rogan.29 However, this early manifestation of the Court had little direct

impact on Maori land in Te Raki. The Court did not attempt to define tribal boundaries

and few if any specific blocks in the inquiry district were established.30

It was the Native Lands Act 1865 that shaped the character of the Court and its early

role in Te Raki. Under this Act, the Court system was a vehicle for the individualisation

of title to Maori land with little scope for collective Maori ownership and utilisation of

land. Legal title to Maori land could be issued to a maximum of 10 individuals. The land

was absolutely vested in these individuals through certificate of title and subsequent

Crown grant even if these owners often saw themselves as acting as trustees or

representatives for wider communities.31 The Act did have one avenue for collective,

corporate ownership. Blocks of over 5,000 acres could be granted to tribal groups.

However, no tribal title was issued in Te Raki. Armstrong and Subasic suggest that this

was because it was generally understood by judges in the area that the role of the Court

was to destroy rather than to perpetuate communal tenure.32

27 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 284-285 28 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 299-304 29 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 299-304, 307-308 30 Crown Grants List, research carried out by Dr Barry Rigby. Archival reference: ABWN, 8090, W5374. Included in Appendices D and E of this report. This research suggests that only two Te Raki Crown grants were issued to blocks titled under the Native Lands Act 1862. 31 Claudia Geiringer, 'Historical Background to the Muriwhenua Land Claim, 1865-1950', 1992, Wai 45, F10, pp 74-78 32 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 312

23

Instead, even large blocks of over 5,000 acres were granted to just a few individuals.

The individualisation of Maori land ownership, and the consequent legal dispossession

of legitimate rights holders not included in the title, continued to spread even after the

passing of the Native Lands Act 1867. Section 17 of this Act allowed the Court, in

addition to the maximum of 10 principal owners named on the title, to list all those who

held interests in the block, be they individuals or tribes, in the Court records and on an

attachment to the certificate of title. This provision neither allowed general communal

ownership of land nor did it constitute a clear legal requirement that the principal

owners be considered trustees for the wider group. Nonetheless, it seemed to offer

some limited protection for Maori and was, as Claudia Geiringer writes, legislative

acknowledgement that the 10-owner system was insufficient to protect the interests of

all legitimate claimants to Maori land.33

The Court in Te Raki rarely invoked this provision of listing a wider group of secondary

'owners'. This may have reflected Chief Judge Fenton's hostility to section 17, which he

viewed as inconsistent with the Native Land Court's task to eradicate communal Maori

ownership.34 There are suggestions that judges failed to inform Maori applicants of the

existence of this provision.35 It would appear that tribes were never recorded in Te Raki

as holding interests and only a few examples have been located of a secondary group of

owners being listed on the title. The 1872 certificate of title for Kokohuia listed 10

owners, with those 10 plus five other individuals named on pages appended to the

certificate.36 On 16 July 1873, Judge Maning ordered a certificate of title for the

Parahirahi block of 5,097 acres to be issued for 10 principal owners, with a secondary

group of 17 other individuals listed within the Court records.37

Instead, the block was reheard and title issued in 1874 until the Native Land Act 1873 which allowed title to be issued to an unlimited amount of individuals, in this case, 27.

But these cases were exceptions to the general pattern. Between 1865 and 1874, Te

Raki blocks were awarded on average to about four individuals (see the table below

where this data is highlighted in bold and the accompanying graph where it is shown as

a red bar). Even this figure exaggerates the number of owners named because it

incorporates a handful of blocks which were granted to hundreds of individuals at the

end of the period under the 1873 Native Land Act. Even blocks of 20,000 acres or more

were granted to a single or a few individuals.

(Source: title determination master sheet with Rigby Crown Grant data, Appendix E)

There are a number of possible reasons why the Court generally issued title to just a few

individuals. Judges, inspired by the Court's individualising aims, seem to have preferred

to keep the number of legal owners of Maori land to a bare minimum. But the small

number of title holders also reflected local Maori attempts to navigate and control the

Court system. Armstrong and Subasic suggest that applicants to the Court often

requested that a single or only a few names be placed on the title because they wanted

to establish separate whanau farms or to smooth the sale or lease of the land to

Pakeha.38 Wiremu Pomare, who was granted land by the Court in the Mahurangi sub-

region, told a Government inquiry in 1871 that the ‘Pakehas often advise the Natives to

get as few names as possible to a grant for the conveniences of selling’.39

But the frequent Maori requests that a block be granted to a small number of individuals

was also a reflection of the central problem in the Native Land Court's titling system.

Many applicants saw themselves, and presented themselves to the Court, as

representatives of their kin groups. Prominent leaders sought land title in the belief that

this would allow them to maintain chiefly control over their lands. It will be shown, for

example, that Te Hemara Tauhia pushed the Court to award title over the Waiwera–

Puhoi blocks in Mahurangi to himself and a small group of tightly connected leaders and

individuals. He evidently saw this as a way in which these leaders could control the land

for the benefit of the wider groups they represented.

But legally these individuals were now in a position to make fateful decisions about land

without the approval of those they represented. Moreover, these owners had no need or

incentive to consult with those they did not represent, including other tribal groups and 38 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 358-360. This seems to be their inference here. 39 Rose Daamen, Paul Hamer and Barry Rigby, ‘Auckland (Part 1)’ Rangahaua Whanaui District Series, Report 1 (Wellington: Waitangi Tribunal, 1996), Wai 1040, H2, p 256

rival chiefs about the fate of the land. Court title gradually weakened communal society

and encouraged unilateral decisions about the collective resources of land. This would

have far-reaching consequences, especially in the parts of Te Raki under strong

pressure from land purchasers.

1.5. The Limits of the Court's Investigations It is difficult to confidently summarise how the Native Land Court decided which

individuals should receive title to land in Te Raki. As many submissions to this inquiry

note, the Court kept inadequate and unrevealing records of its processes and decision

making. Its minute books offer brief and flawed summaries of what took place during

hearings that often fail to provide basic information let alone broader explanation. In

particular, the minutes provide little on the motivations and views of the Maori

applicants. There are no extant official records regarding the many cases heard by Judge

F E Maning.40

One explanation – albeit not the only one – for the scant official record is that the

Court's inquiries were sometimes perfunctory. It has been argued that the Native Land

Acts obliged the Court to investigate and consider the rights of not just applicants but all

those with interests in the land. Section 17 of the Native Lands Act 1867 required the

Court to ascertain the title 'of every person who and every tribe which according to

Native custom owns or is interested in such land whether such person or tribe shall

have put in or made a claim or not’.41 Geiringer states that this clearly obliged the Court

to carry out a thorough and proactive inquiry into title that would, if necessary, extend

beyond the courtroom.42

In practice, there appears to have been no investigations outside the courtroom and

often very limited investigations within it. Title determinations for individual blocks

were decided quickly, often after less than a day of evidence.43

40 As pointed out earlier, these comments are based on the minute books summarised and discussed in various reports. A thorough review of the minute books was not carried out for this report.

The rights of those who

41 Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, pp 84-85 42 Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, p 85 43 Aroha Harris, ‘Oral and Traditional History Report for Te Rohe o Whangaroa’, 2012, Wai 1040, E32, pp 179-187; Mark Derby, '“Fallen Plumage”: A History of Puhipuhi, 1865–2016’, Waitangi Tribunal, 2016, Wai 1040, A61, p 67; Boast, The Native Land Court 1862-1887, part 1, pp 152-153

27

were absent from the Court for whatever reason, including because they were unaware

of the hearing, were unable to attend, or disapproved of the Court process, were often

not considered.

This raised a great risk that legitimate interest holders would be dispossessed of their

legal rights to land. A perusal of various sources including Paula Berghan's many but

brief block histories suggests that often during this period only a small handful of

individuals would appear before the Court and apply for title over the land. There were

often no other claimants present. The Court frequently heard their evidence without

much cross-examination or inquiry. It would seem that there was often no explicit

discussion of the critical question of whether the applicants represented wider groups

and individuals or claimed sole rights over the land. The Court's main concern was

whether anyone in the courtroom explicitly and openly opposed the main applicant's

evidence and claims. If the answer was no, as it frequently was, the Court immediately

ordered a certificate of title to be issued to the main applicants and, if they so requested,

to a handful of other individuals whom they recommended.

This general impression is supported up by a closer examination of the Court's 1866

title determinations into land in the Waiwera–Puhoi area around the Mahurangi

Harbour. During these hearings, the Court rubber-stamped, with little inquiry or

apparent curiosity, the title wishes of Te Hemara Tauhia and a small, closely connected

group of associates.

This is not to imply that the applicants did not have deep ties to the land in question. Te

Hemara and his people maintained kainga and cultivation within this area. It was

largely through Te Hemara's influence and persistence that these lands had not been

included in the Crown's pre-1865 purchases in Mahurangi.44

Before the Court hearings over these blocks opened in 1866, Te Hemara and a few

others from his party decided among themselves to whom the land should be granted.

Te Hemara then had the Court give legal weight to these arrangements. The land was

44 Barry Rigby, ‘The Crown, Maori and Mahurangi 1840–1881’, Waitangi Tribunal, 1998, E18, pp 34-38

28

divided into 13 blocks. The largest of these blocks, Puhoi (2,537 acres), was granted to

Te Hemara alone. Okaihu, the next largest block with 2,408 acres, was granted to Te

Hemara and one other. Two smaller areas were also granted to Te Hemara so that he

could arrange the already planned sale and lease of the land to Europeans.45

The other blocks were allocated to individual Maori with ties to Te Hemara and his

people. Three small blocks were granted to Henare Winiata of Ngati Kau of Ngati Rongo

(or Rango). The 410-acre Tungutu block was assigned to Makoare Ponui, who had

whakapapa connections to Nga Whetu, Ngati Rongo's focal ancestor. As Makoare

explained to the Court, this 'subdivision of the land' had been arranged between himself

and Te Hemara 'lest he should lay claim to my piece and lest I should lay claim to his

piece’.46

One block, Opahi, was granted to Tuna and two others from Waikato. The Court was

told that Te Hemara and others had gifted them this land about 10 years earlier in

acknowledgement of the help and shelter Waikato had lent the Mahurangi people

during the Musket Wars.47 Similarly, four blocks were granted to two descendants of

Pomare, the Ngati Manu chief from the Bay of Islands who had provided a refuge for Te

Hemara during the strife of that period.48

The Court accepted without exception the pre-hearing arrangements made by Te

Hemara and his small party of applicants. The hearings themselves were brief and did

not resemble a thorough investigation into the history and customary rights of the area.

Instead, they followed a standard pattern. The main leader of each individual claim

testified briefly regarding the basis of his rights. There was little, if any, cross-

investigation. Quite frequently, Te Hemara rose to confirm their evidence, to explain

that he and others had earlier agreed to this arrangement, and even to provide the

whakapapa connections of the claimants. There were no cross-claimants or opposition.

In at least some cases, the Court before making its decision, asked a few other Maori

45 Peter McBurney, ‘Traditional History Overview of the Mahurangi and Gulf Islands Districts’, 2010, Wai 1040, A36, pp 418-439 46 McBurney, A36, p 425 47 McBurney, A36, p420 48 O’Malley, A6, 194-195; McBurney, A36, pp 427, 430, 435

29

who had given evidence during the hearings whether they objected to the claim in

question. They invariably did not. The Court then ordered that the land be granted to

the applicants. Within two days, title for 11 of the 13 blocks had been decided.49

This tightly controlled process was only briefly interrupted when Tai Kiamana objected

to his relative Te Hemara being named as the sole title holder for the Orokaraka and

Puhoi blocks. Upon Te Hemara's request, the Court adjourned so that he could reach an

agreement with Tai Kiamana. When the Court resumed two days later, Tai Kiamana was

not present but his objection apparently remained. The Native Assessors, Winiata

Tomairangi and Wiremu Tipene took the lead in deciding these disputed cases. They

enlisted Tipene Te Waka to assist them but heard no additional evidence. Rather, after

receiving a letter – the source and contents of which are not specified in the Court's

minutes – they decided that both blocks should be granted to Te Hemara alone.50

These hearings were an early indication of what would become even more noticeable in

the coming years: namely, the Native Land Court's willingness in the Te Raki inquiry

district to issue title based on limited investigations. The Waiwera–Puhoi hearings

suggest some of the dangers in this approach. Most obviously, the lack of opposition in

the courtroom did not in itself mean that all Maori with potential interests in the land

supported the proceedings. For instance, Ngati Paoa and the Hauraki tribes who were

prominent in pre-1865 land dealings in Mahurangi, played no role in either the hearings

or, it would seem, in the pre-Court negotiations among Maori.51 Any claims that they or

other groups may have had to the land were not considered. Wiremu Pomare, who was

present at the hearings, would later complain that the Court had ignored the fact that

many others held rights to the land. He complained that the Court had granted large

blocks to Te Hemara alone and the result was sales and communal landlessness: 'one

person was put in the grant, and trouble came upon the tribe in consequence'.52

The Court's lack of investigation is perhaps the most striking element about these

hearings. The Court seemed largely willing to accept what it was told. It apparently did 49 McBurney, A36, pp 418-439 50 McBurney, A36, pp 436, 438-439 51 McBurney, A36, p 495 52 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1180. See also p 794

30

not inquire into which individuals and groups took part in the pre-Court arrangements

that it was about to put into law.

Armstrong and Subasic suggest that the Native Assessors generally played a minor role

in court hearings during this period and note that Judge Maning in particular was

hostile to their involvement.53 In the Waiwera–Puhoi hearings the Native Assessors did

at least pose a few limited questions and seem to have taken a more active role than the

presiding officer, Judge Rogan, who appears to have been essentially a bystander. Before

becoming a Native Land Court judge, Rogan was the Crown's purchasing agent in

Mahurangi.54

He had personally witnessed the complexity and conflict over which tribes

and chiefs held rights in the district. Yet there is no evidence that he inquired into such

matters during the hearing.

Not all title determinations were quick or, in the Court's view, straightforward. But even

when it took years for title to be awarded, this was not because the Court was carrying

out exhaustive investigations. Rather, as the Puhipuhi hearings discussed below

indicate, title determination was often delayed when those Maori who appeared in

Court could not agree among themselves to whom the land should be granted. The

Court often issued final judgments regarding these disputed cases. But sometimes,

particularly when the disputing applicants were important leaders of different tribes, it

would not make a decision. The Court's reticence in the Puhipuhi case was not simply

its recognition of the complexities of the case; it also reflected political sensitivities. The

Court hoped that the disputing parties and rangatira would reach an agreement on the

case. When they could not, the Court process, at least in this case, became mired in

delay, confusion and conflict.

From 1867 the Court granted most remaining Maori land in the area surrounding the

Puhipuhi blocks in the Whangarei and Bay of Islands sub-regions to a few individuals

after limited investigations and quick determinations.55

53 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 56

However, moves by Ngati Hau

leaders, including Eru Nehua, to gain title over the Puhipuhi block ran into resistance.

Powerful representatives of other tribes appeared at Kawakawa on 7 August 1873 for

the hearing under Judge Maning included the Ngati Hine leader Maihi Paraone Kawiti

and Hoterene Tawatawa representing Ngati Wai and others.56

Mark Derby's report pieces together, from the limited existing evidence, what happened

during and after the hearing. He suggests that the hearing featured complex and

contested evidence. In general, Judge Maning was hostile to Court decisions reached

through compromise with Maori applicants. But, in this case, key rangatira were locked

in conflict and Maning decided to meet informally with the contestants in the hope of

finding a mutually acceptable agreement.

This may have been sensible but Maning's actions only muddied the waters. Unable to

find an agreement with the chiefs, he made a series of legally unclear, poorly

documented and sometimes contradictory recommendations or rulings. According to

the claimants, the judge wrote a letter to each of them proposing that the land be split

into three with 14,000 acres granted to Nehua including the most valuable southern

portions. Kawiti, under this proposal, would receive title to 6,000 acres with 5,000 acres

to be awarded to Tawatawa. Derby terms this as 'the 14-6-5 proposal'. But Maning then

wrote to Fenton with a different account, suggesting that the recommendation was for

an equal three-way split of the land ('the thirds proposal'). A subsequent suggestion by

Maning that the rangatira should gain shares in the portion allocated to their rivals ('the

intermixing proposal') only deepened the confusion. The applicants were left with

different opinions on what the judge had promised them while title to the land

remained incomplete.57 A rehearing under Maning in 1875 was also abandoned. Title

would not be finally issued in Puhipuhi until 1882–1883.58

Derby argues that the 1873 hearings were a significant misstep by the Court. To gain

legal title over the land, the claimants had no option but to seek a Court decision. They

sought a 'thorough and judicious examination' of their claims, followed by a 'clear and

56 Derby, A61, pp 67, 72 57 Derby, A61, pp 73-84, especially pp 79, 84 58 Derby, A61, pp 84, 173

32

considered judgment'.59 The Court failed to meet these criteria in the case of Puhipuhi.

It proved itself ineffective in resolving serious disputes among the claimants. Derby

suggests that a more traditional Maori forum would have been more appropriate and

effective in mediating this case. As it was, the Court's actions 'appear to have worsened

and extended' the disputes and confusion over Puhipuhi.60

This failure seems to be part of a wider problem. The Court's focus was to place as much

customary Te Raki land under the Crown's tenurial system as possible. In general, it

achieved this goal very efficiently given its lack of resources and personnel. It did not

always demonstrate the same commitment to trying to make sure that the title it issued

reflected, as adequately as was possible, the interests of all the legitimate right holders.

The Court generally ruled quickly and following only limited investigation in cases

when it felt able to impose its authority or, when it was not presented with obvious

evidence that others apart from the applicants were claiming the land. But in cases such

as Puhipuhi, when conflicting and powerful chiefs were present at hearings, the Court

proved ineffective at resolving serious disputes and was part of the problem rather than

the solution.

But in both types of hearings, the Court during this period did not act as an in-depth

investigative body. This severely compromised its ability to make appropriate title

determinations. As Armstrong and Subasic point out, Maori runanga, hui, and other

decision-making processes were not allowed to play a part in the Court's titling

process.61

The result was the worst of both worlds. The Court system took away the

traditional methods of Maori in Te Raki to collectively decide on land matters but did

not prove itself to be an effective replacement.

1.6. Alienation Restrictions and the Court's Protective Responsibilities It has been argued that the Court's major impact during its first decade in Te Raki was

the granting of legal title to individuals who could alienate that land without recourse to

59 Derby, A61, p 103 60 Derby, A61, p 84 61 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 305, 311

33

the wider community. This laid the foundations for purchases during this period by the

Auckland Provincial Government and settlers and also for later, more extensive Crown

acquisitions. While the Court would increasingly become synonymous in Te Raki with

Maori land loss and land shortages, it could potentially have played a quite different

role. The Crown had long acknowledged it had a duty to ensure that Maori preserved a

sufficiency of land for their present and future needs.62

The Court had a major role to

ensuring that duty was met.

There was plenty of legislation that allowed and obligated the Court to inquire into

whether land passed before it should be protected from alienation. Under the Native

Lands Act 1862, the Governor could require a portion of land in certificates of titles to

be reserved for the benefit of tribes and individuals, and restrict alienation of these

reserves. The Native Lands Act 1865 allowed the Court to recommend to the Governor

that blocks be restricted from alienation. The Native Lands Act of 1866 made existing

Maori reserve land inalienable by sale or mortgage and by lease for more than 21 years

except with the assent of the Governor in Council. Moreover, it required the Court to

append a report to every certificate of title on whether alienation restrictions were

needed. The 1867 Native Lands Act strengthened these provisions. The Court was

required in every case:

To inquire and take evidence as to the propriety or otherwise of placing any restriction of the alienability of the land comprised in the claim or of any part thereof or of attaching any condition or limitation to the estate to be granted.63

In addition, lands titled under section 17 of this Act could not be sold unless they were

partitioned into subdivisions held by 10 owners or less.64

It does not appear that the Court regularly and adequately investigated whether

alienation restrictions were needed in Te Raki during this period. No evidence has been

found that the Court produced reports on the issue and attached them to the certificates

62 Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, pp 61-62, 104; Ward, National Overview, vol 2, pp 217, 231, 262-263; 48-250; David V. Williams, ‘Te Kooti Tango Whenua’ The Native Land Court 1876–1909, (Wellington: Huia, 1999), chapter 9 and Appendix 7 63 Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, p 105 64 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 343; Clarkson, A58, pp 31-33; Williams, Te Kooti Tango Whenua, Appendix 7

34

of title. Technical reports to this inquiry evidence suggest that the Court often ignored

the issue unless applicants specifically requested that alienation restrictions be

ordered.65

While there are a few references to the Court discussing alienation restriction matters,

they do not suggest the Court's inquiries were in-depth or systematic. For example,

alienation restrictions were seldom discussed or recommended during title

investigation into the last substantial portions of Maori-owned land in Mahurangi.

According to the minute book accounts, the issue came up only once during the

Waiwera–Puhoi hearings of 1866 and even then in a somewhat haphazard manner.

During the investigation into the 123-acre Opahi block, the applicants explained that

they were from Waikato rather than Mahurangi and that the Opahi land had been gifted

to them from local leaders. Perhaps prompted by a question from the Native Assessors,

they added that this gift allowed them to reside on the land 'forever, but not to dispose

of it to other persons (to sell)’.66 Maori would have good cause to be thankful for this

apparently chance discussion. It prompted the Court to impose alienation restrictions

on Opahi. By the 1890s, this small block was one of the few fragments of Mahurangi that

remained in Maori ownership with both Waikato and otherwise landless Maori from

local tribes living on it.67

The title hearings for the Mangatawhiri block of 24 February 1873 saw a fleeting

reference to the issues of whether alienation restrictions were needed in Mahurangi.

The Court divided the block into three and awarded these portions to 15 individuals. In

its judgment, it stated that all these owners had an 'abundance of land elsewhere’.68

65 Harris, E32, p 186 provides an example of claimants requesting and receiving alienation restrictions.

There is no evidence that this assertion was based on in-depth investigation and no

Court acknowledgment of the endemic landlessness in the area. The Court did issue

alienation restrictions for the 230-acre Mangatawhiri 3, but the two larger portions of

66 McBurney, A36, p 420 67 Rigby, E18, p 135 68 McBurney, A36, p 452

35

the block, with a combined total of 2,992 acres, were left unprotected. They were soon

purchased by Pakeha.69

As has been discussed, the Court during this decade tended to reach vital decisions after

only limited investigations. The lack of inquiry into whether Maori-owned land needed

to be protected against alienation was an example of this negligence. It would seem that

the crucial issue of how much and what quality of land Maori in the various parts of Te

Raki needed to retain if they were to thrive and progress was left largely unconsidered.

The result was that few alienation restrictions were issued on Maori land in Te Raki.

Current research suggests that alienation restrictions were imposed upon only 56 of the

403 Crown grants (around 14 percent) issued for Te Raki blocks between 1865 and

1875. Only 12,371.5 acres, representing 5 percent of the land titled during this period,

was protected against alienation. On the other hand, 347 blocks containing 233,660.9

acres, or 95 percent of the titled land, was left unprotected. The protected blocks were

generally small with an average size of 215.15 acres. Te Ruatahi at Whananaki in the

Whangarei sub-region was the largest of the restricted blocks at 2,542 acres.

Anecdotal comments by Judge Maning about the high level of alienation restrictions in

the area should be treated sceptically. He stated in 1867 that between one-half and two-

thirds of the land that had come before his Court in Hokianga was 'secured to the native

owners inalienably’.70 In 1870, he assured the Government that there was no danger of

landlessness among Hokianga Maori as the Court 'always places restrictions on the sale

of a sufficient quality of land to ensure to the natives an ample provision for their

comfortable maintenance'.71

However, officials knew – or could have found out if they cared to look – that the reality

was quite different. In 1867, a return of certificates issued by the Court in northern

districts was published. It showed that alienation restrictions were placed on just 20 of

the 218 titles issued in the north between November 1865 and July 1867.72

Not all applicants to the Court wanted alienation restrictions placed on their land. Some

wanted Crown title to land so that they could sell or lease it. Others may have been

unaware of the provisions for alienations restrictions. Armstrong and Subasic suggest

that Te Raki Maori generally accepted the importance of alienation restrictions as long

as they were not imposed upon them without consultation.73

But undoubtedly important was the belief of judges active in the area that their role was

to facilitate rather than retard the purchase of Maori land. Chief Judge Fenton was

opposed to alienation restrictions.74 Judge Maning thought Maori land-holdings should

be reduced to a bare minimum and questioned whether protective measures were

necessary or desirable in the north.75

The relatively few alienation restrictions that were imposed during this period were

usually effective. Various restrictions were imposed. Alienation was prohibited 'ad

infinitum' or limited to leases not exceeding 21 years. Some blocks could not be

alienated for the next 21 years, after which the restriction lapsed. Some of these

restrictions were lifted or apparently ignored. On 1 June 1866, title was issued for the

30-acre Aroha block on the Kerikieri inlet in the Bay of Islands with alienation

prohibited 'ad infinitum'. On the very same day, a private purchaser acquired the

block.76 However, most Te Raki blocks with restrictions placed on them in this period

remained in Maori ownership until at least the end of the nineteenth century, surviving

the peaks of Crown purchasing in Te Raki in the mid-1870s and, to a lesser degree, the

1890s.77 However, the Crown largely removed existing alienation restrictions from

Maori land in 1909.78 In the following years, many, though not all, of the previously

protected blocks were purchased in part or full.79

73 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 344-345 74 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 343; Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, p 106 75 Rigby, A56, pp 327, 346 76 Paula Berghan ‘Northland Block Research Narratives Vol 04 Native Land Court Blocks 1865–2005 Ahitunutawa – Kuwaru’, CFRT, 2009, Wai 1040, A39(c), p 37 for the title and alienation details. 'Crown Grants List', included in Appendix C of this report for the alienation restriction. 77 See chapter 4 for suggestions that alienation restrictions in the 1890s were increasingly removed or ignored although this mainly refers to blocks restricted from alienation in later periods. 78 Williams, Te Kooti Tango Whenua, Appendix 7 79 This statement is derived from cross checking blocks listed in 'Crown Grants List' as restricted from alienation with their subsequent histories as found in Berghan A39.

1.7. Selective, Small-Scale Interaction with the Court Between 1865 and 1874, Te Raki Maori placed over 39.1 percent of their land under the

Crown's new titling system in some 469 distinct blocks. Exactly why they did so cannot

be stated with any certainty but the limited evidence available suggests that Te Raki

Maori interacted with the Native Land Court during this period in two quite distinct

ways. The first and most common practice was for small numbers of Maori to go to the

Court, more or less willingly, to gain legal title over often relatively small parcels of land.

39

The great majority of Native Land Court blocks created during this first decade were

small in size. This pattern began early. According to official reports, 218 certificates of

title were issued by the Native Land Court in the north as a whole between November

1865 and July 1867. Of these, 92 were for blocks 100 acres or less. A further 82

certificates of title were issued for blocks between 100 and 1,000 acres. In all, more

than 80 percent of the blocks established by the Court during these 20 months were less

than 1,000 acres.80 Crown grants registered for blocks in Te Raki between 1865 and

1874 likewise show the predominance of small blocks.81

Research carried out for this report bears out the point that most blocks titled by the

Court during this period were relatively small. The table and graph below indicates 381

of the 469 blocks titled between 1865 and 1874 were 500 acres or less, with 249 being

100 acres or less.82

These relatively small, newly titled Native Land Court blocks were spread throughout

the inquiry district and were often surrounded by land that Maori had decided to keep

under customary title. Armstrong and Subasic suggest that local Maori tended to see

small-scale, controlled interaction with the Court as a positive element in their search

for economic development. They sought Crown title over select, limited areas which

they wished to sell or lease to valued settlers or to develop themselves, especially as

whanau-run farms.83

Te Tirarau Kukupa, the Te Parawhau chief, was a frequent participant in Court hearings

during this period. On 18 March 1866, he was granted the 100-acre Taikawiwi block in

the Whangarei district which he then transferred to the settler Henry Walton, his

business partner, agent, and relative through marriage. Tirarau and others passed a

number of newly titled blocks to Walton, including one that seems to have been part of a

plan to create a joint coal-mining enterprise on Ketenikau.84 In March 1866, the Ngati

Hau leader Haki Whangawhanga received title for the 197-acre Tauranga block. He

immediately requested that Chief Judge Fenton grant it to Walton 'because that land is

his’.85

European settlers had long lived around Kawakawa with the agreement of the Ngati

Hine chief Maihi Paraone Kawiti but without legally recognised rights. When two

settlers began arguing with each other about the extent of their land rights, Kawiti went

to the Court to create distinct, separate blocks which he then sold to them.86

In 1865, Te Hemara Tauhia and others informally sold land at Mahurangi to Robert

Graham, a businessman and politician with whom they had long-standing ties. In 1866,

Te Hemara gained title over the 70-acre Maungatauhoro block which he legally sold to

Graham in 1868.87


During the 1866 Waiwera–Puhoi hearings, Te Hemara also gained

title to the eight-acre Orokaraka block which he told the Court would be leased,

'Crown Grants List', included in Appendix E of this report shows that Walton was granted Ketenikau. Document A39(c), pp 372-373, seems to suggest there was an arrangement over coal on the block. Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 856 infers that Walton was also granted other lands from Te Tirarau. For the relationship between Te Tirarau and Walton, see Paul Thomas, 'The Crown and Northern Wairoa, 1840–1865' CFRT, 1999, Wai 674 H1, Wai 312 C1, pp 34, 41, 50, 217. 85 Paula Berghan, Wai 1040, Northland Block Research Narratives Vol 08 Native Land Court Blocks 1865–2005 Rahuikotuku – Tuwhakino’, Wai 1040, A39(g), p 290 86 Berghan, A39(e), pp 254-255 87 Rigby, E18, p 134; McBurney, A36, p 433

apparently as part of an endeavour to encourage the shipping trade that he and his

people were involved in.88

In March 1867, Judge W B White issued title to a number of small blocks in Whangaroa

that the applicants wished to sell or had already sold, to Europeans. Regarding the 89-

acre Paihia block, Riwhi Hongi told him that:

we have all arranged to sell this piece of land to the white man, we have plenty of land left, this is only a small piece.89

The discovery of mercury at Ngawha attracted the attention of European businessmen

and spurred local Maori to gain legal title over the area. In 1872, John White, who was at

various times a Crown land purchase agent, Court official, and mining entrepreneur,

signed a 100-year lease and mining arrangement with Wiremu Hongi Te Ripi and others

to take effect as soon as legal title was secured to what would become the Parahirahi

block. The hearing for Parahirahi took place in July 1873. At this hearing, the Court

awarded the adjoining Tuwhakino block to Heta Te Haara who shortly afterwards

leased it to another Pakeha would-be mining magnate.90

The desire to establish flax mills, often in conjunction with Pakeha, was another spur for

Native Land Court hearings. In early 1870, Judge Maning reported that he was busy with

title applications due to the upsurge in the flax business and subsequent leasing.91 In

1871, 12 Maori gained title over the 534-acre Moetangi block in Hokianga. This appears

to have been the location for a flax-cutting mill that was established soon afterwards by

Europeans.92

Native Court title was also sought for farming, development, and residences for local

Maori including by Eru Nehua and his whanau at Taharoa and by Te Hemara Tauhia and

See Berghan, A39(d), p 281 for the title determination over Moetangi in 1871. I have not seen any direct evidence that the mill was on this block.

his people on some of the Waiwera–Puhoi land. In January 1867, Judge Maning claimed

that:

all over the north there are already instances to be found of natives who having individualised their claims and received Crown grants for their lands are fencing, clearing, laying down grass, and building good houses for themselves and calculating what the future income derived from their farms ... will be[.] [T]he land they sell is almost invariably the inferior land and they keep the best for themselves, and they are in general so persuaded of the great benefits derived from the Native Land Act that I assure you the Court has in my district acquired a power quite unprecedented up to this time and authority.93

Despite these optimistic reports by Native Land Court judges, the new tenurial system

did not lead to successful Maori farming in Te Raki. The instances cited by Rogan were

exceptions to the general rule. The first decade of the Native Land Court saw Te Raki

Maori poverty deepen with little economic activitiy except for the extraction of gum and

timber.94

Legal title seems to have been especially valued when the land in question was

under dispute between tribes or threatened by Crown and old land claims.

However, Crown-derived title brought little economic benefit for Te Raki Maori who

grew increasingly sceptical about the wisdom of using the Native Land Court. There was

considerable early enthusiasm among Te Raki Maori for the new Court system. The

Court's first full three years of operating in Te Raki, from 1866 to 1868, saw a

considerable amount of applications and title determinations. In 1866, the Court

established and issued title to 76 new blocks in the district. The following two years saw

81 and 68 new Native Land Court blocks established. In each of the three years, over

80,000 acres of customary land came under the Crown's tenurial system. These were by

far the three most prolific years in the Court's Te Raki history for the establishment of

new blocks. No other period comes close. Judge Maning reported that the introduction

of the Court was going so well that 'I am worked almost off my legs’.95

However, by the end of this period, title determinations had virtually ceased. In 1874,

just two blocks – a mere 127.9 acres of land – came under the Court system. It might be

93 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 348 94 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 924-925 95 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 349

stretching things to say that the Native Land Court was saved from oblivion in Te Raki

by the Crown's purchasing programme that began in 1875, but certainly, the Te Raki

Maori desire to bring their land before the Court had declined radically.

Alongside the lack of hoped-for economic development, other drawbacks of the Native

Land Court were becoming noticeable to Maori. While the Te Raki chiefs who

participated in the Haultain inquiry of 1871 generally acknowledged the importance of

the Court and secure legal title to land, they complained about title determinations

initiated without communal approval, the failure of the Court to issue more reserves or

protect against excessive land loss, and the limited role of Native Assessors and Maori in

the title determination process.96 Surveys and Court fees, especially in proportion to

smaller blocks, were high.97 Court hearings in distant locations caused some social and

economic disruption.98 Surveying and hearing applications sparked sometimes violent

conflict among Maori.99

It is likely that all these factors contributed to the decline in Court hearings. But perhaps

the biggest single factor was that private purchasers were by 1874 being driven out of

the market for Maori land in Te Raki as the Crown prepared the way for a massive

purchasing programme. Crown purchasing would increasingly shape and define the

Court's role in Te Raki. But even before the extraordinary events of 1875, the Court in

Te Raki was closely tied to Crown purchase.

1.8. Landlessness and the Court: Mahurangi

This portrayal of Te Raki Maori interacting selectively with the Native Land Court to

create small blocks for whanau farms and mutually beneficial arrangements with

individual Pakeha tells only part of the story. The Court's most dramatic, destructive

impact in its initial decade was in the parts of Te Raki under pressure from Crown

purchase.

In particular, Maori communities in the Mahurangi and Gulf Island sub-region had long

been under pressure from Crown purchasers and the threat of landlessness. The need

for legal, secure title over their few remaining areas was acute. As a result, virtually all

remaining Maori-owned on the Mahurangi mainland was brought before the Court

between 1865 and 1874. During this period, about 79 percent of all known customary

land in the sub-region was clothed in Court title with 20 new blocks established

although the off-shore, 6,980-acre island of Hauturu stayed out of the Court system for a

few more years.

Some of these title determinations went rapidly; others were drawn-out. But the end

result was the almost complete extinguishment of customary title in Mahurangi by the

end of the 1880s and the near landlessness of its communities. The destructive

characteristics and impact of the Court system were quickly revealed in Mahurangi. At

least some Mahurangi Maori rushed towards the Court in a search for legal title and

economic opportunity. But the new tenurial system was to contribute to the Crown's

acquisition of virtually all Maori-owned land in the district.

With its timber and proximity to Auckland, Mahurangi had long been attractive to

chiefs.100 It did so without wide consultation and consent, and failed to ascertain the

boundaries of the land it was purporting to purchase.101

Its actions led to sustained protests from Maori who had not agreed to the 'sale',

including from tribes that the Crown would acknowledge were resident on the land.

Over the next 13 years, the Crown entered into a raft of new transactions in an attempt

to extinguish all Maori interests in Mahurangi.102 O'Malley and Rigby describe these

purchases as deeply flawed, with results verging on the incomprehensible. Combined

with old land claims covering some of the best land on the Mahurangi coastline, the

purchases created what Rigby calls a 'crazy quilt of multiple and overlapping

transactions' covering the district.103

Just three substantial areas on the Mahurangi mainland remained in Maori ownership.

Maori control over these areas, which were surrounded by Crown lands, was far from

secure. The Waiwera–Puhoi and Mangatawhiri–Tawharanui areas had only been

excluded from the pre-1865 purchases due to protests by local chiefs and tribes.

Officials had seemingly promised that these areas would remain permanently in Maori

ownership but had failed to establish them as protected reserves, grant them to Maori,

or adequately define their boundaries. Maori ownership over the larger Pakiri block

was, if anything, more vulnerable still. It had apparently been excluded from the pre-

1865 purchases only because of bureaucratic oversight.104

The possibility that Crown and Europeans would purchase these remaining areas was

ever-present. In 1866, some Maori moved quickly to gain legal title over the remnants of

their rohe. Their motivations were not uniform. Some were interested in selling these

lands. More, it would seem, wanted title to protect the land from sale. Regardless of

their motivations, a number of Mahurangi leaders had concluded that in such a

vulnerable and changing environment, they needed legally recognised title over their

land. But the Court failed to provide adequate protection against subsequent alienation.

Instead, it issued saleable title to a few individuals who proved only too vulnerable to

the sometimes unscrupulous attentions of Crown and private purchasing agents. The

examples which follow demonstrate these general trends.

53

1.8.1. The Waiwera–Puhoi blocks In January 1866, the Ngati Rongo (or Rango) chief Te Hemara Tauhia led a successful

attempt by a closely connected group of Maori to gain Native Land Court title over 6,319

acres of land in the Waiwera–Puhoi area around the Mahurangi Harbour. Although

officials had in the 1850s deemed this area ‘Te Hemara's reserve’, it was legally neither

a reserve nor Te Hemara's.105 The Crown had neglected to officially establish it as a

reserve or grant it to the chief and his people. Te Hemara and his party maintained

kainga and cultivation on the lands and reportedly enjoyed some success in developing

the area.106

But when the Native Land Court era arrived, the land was legally Maori

customary land able to be claimed in the Court by any Maori.

At least for Te Hemara and those included on the titles, the hearings must initially have

seemed like a triumph as they gained legal title over crucial remaining pieces of their

land. In reality, the hearings began a process which led to the virtual landlessness of

these leaders and those they represented.

Crown officials in the 1850s had stated that maintenance of the entire area or 'reserve'

was crucial to Te Hemara and his roughly 100-strong party as 'he has no other place

where he can subsist’.107 Despite this, the Court failed to investigate the need for

alienation restrictions in any depth. Apart from the small Opahi block, the land was left

unprotected from future purchase.108

Instead, title was issued to a small number of individuals legally entitled to alienate the

land without recourse to the wider groups they represented. The evidence suggests that

Te Hemara and the other applicants saw themselves as representatives rather than

individual owners. Te Hemara told the Court that he claimed the Okahu and Puhoi

blocks as the representative of 30 of his relations, all descended from Ngawhetu, whom

he named. At one point, although it was legally impossible for the Court to do so, he

apparently suggested that this entire group should be included on the title.109

105 Rigby, E18, pp 50-52

Similarly,

106 Daamen et al, H2, pp 256-257 107 O’Malley, A6, p 204, p473 108 McBurney, A36, pp 418-438, especially p 420 109 McBurney, p 432

54

he claimed Maungatauhoro on behalf of 48 descendants of Ngawhetu. He told the Court

he represented his Ngati Rongo relations when applying for sole title to the

Orokaraka.110

Te Tuna also made clear to the Court that although he and two others

should be placed on the Opahi title, they represented a group of eight others from

Waikato who held rights to the land.

Te Hemara and others may have claimed and considered themselves to be trustees but

they received absolute and unrestricted title as individuals over these lands. A handful

of individuals received title to all 13 blocks. Te Hemara was granted sole or shared title

to four blocks. The Pomare brothers gained title to four other blocks. Henare Winiata

was named the sole owner of three blocks. Six of the blocks were granted to one

individual. Five blocks had two owners and two blocks had three owners. The small

number of owners to deal with would prove to be a great advantage to Crown and

private purchasers in the years to come.

By 1881, nearly all the Waiwera–Puhoi blocks had been acquired by the Crown and

private purchasers. The only substantial area remaining in Maori ownership was 2,000

acres or so of the Puhoi block. When this was sold in 1893, many Mahurangi Maori were

reported to have left the area. Others lived on the small Opahi block, the only area that

the Court had made inalienable.111

Te Hemara's role in these sales is debated both in submissions to the Tribunal and in

published works. Paul Hamer suggests that Te Hemara profited personally from

exploiting the Native Land Court system, gaining and then selling title to lands and

keeping the proceeds for himself. Other Maori, through the loss of their lands, paid the

price for his material advancement.112 A book by Paul Goldsmith makes these

accusations against Te Hemara in a more extreme manner.113

110 McBurney, A36, p 436 111 Rigby, E18, pp 133-137 112 Daamen et al, H2, pp 256-257 113 Paul Goldsmith, The Rise and Fall of Te Hemara Tauhia, (Auckland: Reed Publishing Ltd, 2003) as summarised in Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 940-942, 946, 948-952

55

On the other hand, Armstrong and Subasic argue that Te Hemara acted as a leader and

not out of personal greed. They posit that he began selling land in the area to gain the

collateral advantages of European settlement and to fund land development and trading

enterprises for the good of his people. The failure of these efforts created a cycle of

sales, each more harmful than the last, with the proceeds used to fund the needs and

debts of his community.114

More directly relevant for this report is the way in which the Crown's tenurial system

and inadequate protective mechanisms contributed to these alienations. The limited

available evidence does not suggest that Te Hemara and others went to the Native Land

Court as part of a strategy to sell their remaining lands. On the contrary, it would seem

that they hoped that Crown title would allow them to sell or lease small areas while they

lived on and developed the rest.

During the hearings, Te Hemara told the Court that the 70-acre Maungatauhoro block

was designated to be sold to Robert Graham for £50.115 He also indicated that they

wanted to lease the eight-acre Orokaraka block to facilitate the shipping trade.116 No

other plans for alienation were indicated. Te Hemara is recorded in the minute books as

saying that he might sell the large Puhoi block to the Government but this was clearly

not his preference. He seemed to mean that he would consider selling Puhoi only if the

Court disrupted his plans to utilise the land by including an opponent, Tai Kiamana, on

the title. When the Court heeded Te Hemara's wishes, the threat of sale was dropped.117

Indeed, in the wake of the hearings, Te Hemara increased his efforts to develop the

Waiwera–Puhoi lands. There were no major sales. In 1867, Judge Rogan praised the

chief for fencing and making improvements as part of his involvement in ‘European-

style farming’.118

114 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 940-950

Rogan suggested that these advances were proof that the Native Land

Court system encouraged Maori enterprise and prosperity. It is possible that Te Hemara

115 McBurney, A36, p 433; Rigby, E18, p134 116 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 949; McBurney, A36, p 436 117 This is my understanding of McBurney, A36, p 438 118 Daamen et al, H2, p 257

56

funded these developments in part by selling land elsewhere but he was holding on to

land in Waiwera–Puhoi at this stage.

But within a few years, Waiwera–Puhoi was under renewed pressure from the

Government and private purchasers. In 1873, the Crown purchased the Okaihu block of

2,408 acres.119 This made control over Puhoi, the only substantial Maori-owned block in

the area more important still. But from 1876 to 1877, Robert Graham acquired 280

acres of this 2,408-acre block.120 It was around this time that the Commissioner of

Native Reserves, Charles Heaphy, warned the Crown that areas needed by Te Hemara's

people for their villages and cultivations in Puhoi were being purchased, and called for

stronger protective mechanisms to be instituted.121 This call went unheeded. In 1891,

Te Hemara died and his descendants sold the land. Some left the area. Others lived on

the 123-acre Opahi block, the only block upon which the Court had issued alienation

restrictions.122

The Crown's tenurial system, in the individualised title it issued and in its failure to

institute effective mechanisms, played a part in what Rigby terms this 'sad tale of

alienation'.123 The Native Land Court in Mahurangi was the latest in a number of

regimes that had led to land loss in Mahurangi. O'Malley argues that the Crown's

'reckless disregard' for the long-term interests of Mahurangi Maori had begun with its

pre-1865 purchases and the failure to reserve the Waiwera–Puhoi area as a permanent

tribal endowment. The land was made subject to the Native Land Court system and 'left

bereft' of protection from alienation. The result was, as O'Malley puts it, 'more or less

complete landlessness’.124

Figure 5: The Mangatawhiri and Tawharanui Blocks

1.8.2. Mangatawhiri and Tawharanui The background and results of the Mangatawhiri–Tawharanui title determinations

resembled the situation in Waiwera–Puhoi. In both areas, Maori land ownership

survived the pre-1865 Mahurangi purchasing but not the introduction of the Court

system.

There is only limited and confusing evidence regarding how Mangatawhiri and

Tawharanui were not included in the Crown's pre-1865 Mahurangi purchases. What is

known is that the chief Parihoro was a persistent opponent of the Crown's claims to

have acquired all of Mahurangi in 1841. During attempts to extinguish Parihoro's

interests in the wider area, Crown officials apparently suggested a reserve would be set

aside for him in the Tawharanui Peninsula. Crown officials considered that, in

combination with the Waiwera–Puhoi lands, Parihoro's area would constitute 'ample

58

reserves' for the entire Mahurangi area.125 However, the Crown failed to define the area

under discussion or officially set aside any land for Parihoro.126

Things became more confused as other leaders in the Mahurangi area, including

Parihoro's relations Te Kiri and Te More, demanded recognition of their land rights.

They believed that they had secured a commitment from Crown purchase agent – and

later Native Land Court judge – Rogan for a reserve around Omaha. Once again, this area

was never officially granted as a reserve or clearly defined.127

It would seem that some Mahurangi Maori saw the Native Land Court as a chance to

define and gain clear control over these neighbouring and possibly overlapping

'reserves'. The title hearing for the Mangatawhiri block was scheduled for January 1866

but adjourned due to a lack of survey plans. Eventually the survey was completed, with

the applicants incurring considerable debts in the process. The surveyor, E A Tole

claimed in Court a hefty £125 lien.128

Title investigations took place in February 1873. Unlike in Waiwera–Puhoi, pre-hearing

attempts by Maori to present a united claim were unsuccessful. A number of claimants

gave evidence, including Te Kiri's daughter Rahui and Arama Karaka Haututu.

Parihoro's nephew also claimed interests in the block.129 The Court's minutes suggest

that this evidence focused on ancestral and customary claims to the land and that the

Court did not inquire into the more recent background of the block, namely the pre-

1865 Mahurangi purchases and the promises of reserves in the area.130

Instead, the Court stated that claimants with links to the ancestor Maki would be

granted rights to the land. This excluded Parihoro's nephew who claimed rights through

his Te Parawhau and Nga Puhi links. After discussions among the grantees, the Court

agreed that the block would be divided into three sections and granted to 18 individuals

when the required surveys were completed. Mangatawhiri 1, eventually surveyed at 125 Rigby, E18, p 51 126 Rigby, E18, pp 51-53 127 Rigby, E18, pp 58-60 128 Rigby, E18, pp 446, 451 129 Rigby, E18, p 450 130 McBurney, A36, pp 446-452

59

1,957 acres, was granted to eight individuals including Arama Karaka, Rahui Te Kiri, and

Hori Te More.131

Title to Mangatawhiri 2 (1,435 acres) went to seven individuals including Te Hemara

Tauhia. Mangatawhiri 3 was awarded to Ruka Taiaho, Wiremu Patene and the minor Te

Kiri. The Court placed no alienation restrictions on the two larger portions,

Mangatawhiri 1 and 2. This presumably reflected its belief, noted in the judgment, that

all the grantees 'have an abundance of land elsewhere’.132 As has been mentioned, there

is no indication that this pronouncement was the result of in-depth investigation.

Mangatawhiri was one of the few parts of Mahurangi still in Maori ownership. The

Court's failure to issue alienation restrictions was followed by the swift purchase of

Mangatawhiri 1 and 2 by Pakeha.133

Around this time, the neighbouring Tawharanui block of 1,260 acres also came under

the Court system. This block may have included the area promised as a reserve to

Parihoro although this is far from clear. No information about the hearings or awards

has been found. What is clear is that by 1877 this block had also been purchased.134

The only portion of these lands to survive this process of Court title and quick alienation

was the small Mangatawhiri 3 block. This, not coincidentally, was the only piece of the

Mangatawhiri–Tawharanui land restricted from alienation by the Court. It remained a

rare block of Maori land in Mahurangi until its alienation restrictions were lifted in

1909. It was purchased in 1912.135

Figure 6: The Pakiri Block

1.8.3. Pakiri The loss of the Waiwera–Puhoi and the Mangatawhiri–Tawharanui areas was a

significant blow to the remaining land holdings of Mahurangi Maori. If anything, what

happened at Pakiri (also known as the Pakiri North block) was more damaging. This

30,000-acre block was, in Barry Rigby's words, a 'last prized possession' and by far the

largest piece of Maori-owned land remaining in Mahurangi. It was the sole significant

piece of Maori-owned land on the entire east coast from Auckland to Whangarei and the

only continuous strip of Maori land between Kaipara and the coast.136

However, the Native Land Court system failed to protect this land against the designs of

Crown and private purchasers. In 1869, the Court ordered title to be issued to Pakiri,

subject to the completion of a survey, without imposing any alienation restrictions. This

136 Rigby, E18, p 112

61

large block was granted to just three individuals even though one of the main

applicants, Te Kiri, told the Court that others claimed the land. Te Kiri explained that he

had tried to extinguish some of these claims through financial payments but expected

that 'there will be opposition' if the Court did not recognise their rights in Pakiri.137

The hearings and awards were apparently the result of agreements between three

chiefs with ties to Mahurangi: Te Kiri, his relative Te More, and Arama Karaka Haututu.

They appear to have wanted to use Court title to secure ongoing Maori control over this

crucial block. Upon their request, title was allocated not to these chiefs but to their heirs

and representatives, a new generation of leaders. The aged Te Kiri placed his daughter

Rahui, who would later provide strong resistance to Crown attempts to acquire the land,

on the title. Te More was represented by his son, Hori Panapa. Arama Karaka installed a

minor, Wiapo Te Whakationga, the son of an ally of his, on the title.138

But Maori control over this land was threatened by debt, including from the Court

process itself. Te Kiri told the Court he had already paid £146 for the incomplete survey

of Pakiri and that the total cost would come to £400.139 Te More had been successfully

sued by the storekeeper John McLeod for over £290, a debt which McLeod wanted Te

More to settle through a transfer of land.140

Most critically, the Court hearing entwined these chiefs and the fate of Pakiri with the

lawyer (and later Native Minister) John Sheehan. In Rigby's opinion, Sheehan played a

'disgraceful' part in the eventual alienation of the land.141 Sheehan’s multiple roles in

the sale of Pakiri included representing Te Kiri during the title hearing and acting for Te

More in his court battles with John McLeod over store debt. He used his influence to be

named, alongside Arama Karaka, as the trustee for the minor Wiapo.142

137 McBurney, A36, p 441. Note that Te Kiri's evidence, briefly recorded and translated in the minute books, is not easy to understand. 138 McBurney, A36, pp 441-444 139 McBurney, A36, p 441 140 Berghan, A39(f), pp 73-4 141 Rigby, E18, p 119 142 Rigby, E18, p 114

62

But Sheehan was simultaneously working for the storekeeper McLeod and had by 1872

devised a plan for the Crown to purchase all of Pakiri. According to this proposal, Te

More's debt to McLeod and Sheehan's legal fees would be paid out of the purchase price

given to Maori. The Crown, eager to acquire Pakiri as part of the construction of the

Great North Road, agreed.143

The Crown could not secure the legal agreement of any of the three owners to the sale

of Pakiri. Rahui Te Kiri refused to sell. Te Waipo was a minor and legally could not sell.

Te More's son had died. His son, a minor, was named as his successor with his

grandfather, Te More, acting as trustee. Crown purchase agent Edward Brissenden was

undeterred by this problem. In 1874, he made payments to the trustees of two of the

owners – the debt-ridden and cash-strapped Te More and Arama Karaka, and the

duplicitous Sheehan –who then signed a deed purporting to transfer the entire block to

the Crown.144

By 1876, the Crown acknowledged that the whole transaction was illegal. One of the

three owners, Rahui Te Kiri, had not signed and refused to sell. The other vendors were

trustees not entitled to sell. But the Crown refused to abandon its claims to Pakiri. In

1877, Sheehan, by this stage the Native Minister, shepherded through Parliament a law

allowing trustees to sell the property of minors and retroactively validating prior sales

such as Pakiri. Rahui Te Kiri continued to resist but in 1880 the Native Land Court

subdivided Pakiri into three areas, each approximately 10,000 acres. Two of the

subdivisions were granted to the Crown on the basis of the 1874 'sale' by Sheehan and

the other trustees.145

Only Rahui Te Kiri's section remained in Maori ownership. It was the base for many of

those Mahurangi Maori who remained in the region. But the Court imposed no

alienation restrictions on the land and much of it was alienated in the 1920s.146

143 Rigby, E18, p 114

By

1865, Mahurangi Maori were threatened with virtual landlessness. The Native Land

Court system helped turn that threat into a reality.

1.9. Large-Scale Interaction with the Court Leading to Large-Scale

Land Loss: Puhipuhi–Whakapara Most blocks established by the Native Land Court in Te Raki during this period were

relatively small. Nonetheless, the Court's most profound impact was by awarding a few

large blocks to a handful of individuals. Indeed, most Te Raki land that came under the

Crown's new tenurial system during this period was grouped together in a few large

blocks. Only 18 blocks of more than 5,000 acres were established between 1865 and

1874 but they collectively contained about 211,972 acres. By way of contrast, title was

awarded for 249 blocks of 100 acres or less but these blocks collectively containing just

7,165 acres (see tables and graphs in section 1.7).

What shall be termed the Puhipuhi–Whakapara area, stretching between the Bay of

Islands and Whangarei sub-regions, was at the heart of early Native Land Court activity

in Te Raki. No other locality saw a comparable amount of customary land passed

through the Court. Within a decade, local Maori had received or were in the process of

receiving Crown title over more than 128,000 acres. This encapsulated the great

majority of Maori-owned land in this locality. Only two pockets of customary Maori land

remained. Not coincidentally, Puhipuhi–Whakapara was also the main centre for Crown

purchasing in Te Raki during this period. Indeed, this area would be an early example of

the fact that in Te Raki, where Crown purchasers went, the Court was soon to follow.

By the mid-1860s, the Crown had acquired considerable land in this area, which it

considered to be valuable hinterlands for the Bay of Islands and Whangarei ports. The

1862 Hikurangi purchase took Crown ownership to within a few miles of Whangarei,

while the 1864 Ruapekapeka purchase gave it access to the Bay of Islands through the

Kawakawa outlet. The Crown sought to link up these purchases and create a large,

strategically and economically important area of European-owned land.147

With the dismantling of the Native Purchase Department in 1865, responsibility for

Crown purchasing in Te Raki was transferred to the Auckland Provincial Government.

From 1866, its purchasing officer, John White was negotiating and making advance

147 Derby, A61, p 34

65

payments to acquire large parts of the Puhipuhi–Whakapara area even though these

were customary areas belonging to wider communities under traditional tenure. The

individual Maori who received advance payment for these lands were not legally

recognised owners and had no right to sell. There is nothing to suggest that White paid

these individuals after careful investigation into who held legitimate interests in the

area. Instead, he paid a few local Maori keen to sell land, and then assisted them to carry

out the necessary surveys and apply to the Court for title. Once they received title, they

could officially sell the land to the Auckland Provincial Government.148

These advance payments led to the May 1867 hearings for the Otonga and Opuawhanga

(or Opuawhango) blocks. It would appear that the investigations and title

determinations to these blocks were quick and perfunctory. A small group of local Maori

successfully sought title to large areas that they were already negotiating to sell to the

Crown.149

It is difficult to gauge to what degree wider groups and tribes knew about and

supported these Court applications – or the subsequent transactions. The crucial point

is that the Court does not seem to have been bothered by such issues. No alienation

restrictions were levelled on these blocks even though, or perhaps because, the Court

was informed that there had already been prior agreements to 'give up' the land to the

Auckland Provincial Government.150

Indeed, the Court issued alienable, absolute title to

a handful of individuals, despite having the power under the 1865 Act to award blocks

of over 5,000 acres to tribes.

On 14 May 1867, the Court granted title to the Otonga 1 (26,810 acres) and Otonga 2

(1,226 acres). Two days later, title was awarded for Opuawhanga (or Opuawhango) 1-4,

collectively comprising an estimated 33,193 acres.151

148 Derby, A61, p 37

After the title determination, the

Auckland Provincial Government made a series of further payments to the awardees

149 Berghan, A39(e), pp 135-136, 239-240 150 The Native Land Court apparently did either reserve or exclude three areas from the Opuawhanga 1 and 4 blocks and Otonga 1. However, Pipiwharauroa and Ngatahuna were subsequently purchased by the Crown. Little evidence is available about the Te Wairahi block but only small portions of it remain Maori land. See Rigby, A56, Appendix B; and Berghan, A39(h), p 161. 151 Opuawhanga 1–3 received interlocutory orders only, as the required surveys were not complete.

66

(and apparently to other Maori). By May 1870, it considered all these blocks to be fully

and finally acquired. However, the chaotically implemented and recorded process of

payments replete with accusations of forgery, loss of the deeds, and dissension from

Maori prompted the Crown to arrange for new deeds to be signed in 1878. This was

duly achieved – albeit not without ongoing protests from Maori – and the Opuawhanga

and Otonga blocks were officially declared Crown land.152

The 1867 title determination into Opuawhanga and Otonga encouraged more hearings

and sales in the region. In particular, the hearings were a success for Eru Nehua and

Haki Whangawhanga of Ngati Hau. After being granted Otonga 1, they immediately sold

it to the Auckland Provincial Government. Mark Derby's report suggests that Nehua,

whom he depicts as a 'modernising and entrepreneurial figure', had devised a clear

strategy with regard to the Native Land Court.153 He was determined to gain title to and

sell large areas to the Crown. At the same time, he sought secure permanent legal

control for his whanau and people over their home base of Taharoa, where Nehua had

farmed since 1862. After receiving title and payment for Otonga 1, Nehua proposed to

his fellow Ngati Hau leaders that he return immediately to the Court to gain title over

Taharoa. They disagreed but a compromise was reached under which Nehua would lead

the Ngati Hau effort to gain title over all of Puhipuhi. Once this was achieved, he would

have the Court grant him and his whanau the southern parts of the block, which

included Taharoa. In 1871, Nehua arranged for the survey of Puhipuhi in preparation

for a Court hearing.154

Nehua's plan met resistance from other chiefs and tribes claiming connections to

Puhipuhi. The powerful Ngati Hine chief Maihi Paraone Kawiti was particularly

opposed. While Nehua wanted Court title and Crown sales to finance his development of

Taharoa, Kawiti was apparently engaged in similar efforts to fund his people's

endeavours around Kawakawa. In 1873, Kawiti sought a Crown loan for a mill he was

establishing that 'will raise us up and make us more prosperous’.155

west of Puhipuhi as security. The Crown refused to loan the money and instead offered

to buy the land. It would seem that Kawiti promptly went to the Court and gained title

for himself and others of Ngati Hine over the 19,500-acre Hukerenui block, before

selling it to the Crown on 5 November 1873.156

In 1873, the first hearings for Puhipihi took place. Nehua's claim of the land on behalf of

Ngati Hau was opposed by Kawiti representing Ngati Hine, and Horotene Tawatawa

representing Ngati Wai and others. This case is discussed in more detail below.

Pertinent to our current discussion is that the opposition within the Court complicated

and delayed but did not prevent another large-scale Court award and Crown purchase.

The Crown continued to make advance payments and title was finally awarded in 1883.

Almost immediately, most of Puhipuhi was sold to the Crown although Nehua and his

whanau did secure two small blocks around Taharoa (Puhipihi 4 and 5), which they

would try to develop for the rest of the century.157

Puhipuhi, with its drawn-out hearings, was the exception to the rule in this area. The

Court granted Kawiti sole title to the 27,800-acre Wairua block which he sold to the

Crown on 2 June 1875.158

In little more than a decade, over 128,000 acres of Maori land

in the Puhipuhi–Whakapara area had passed through the Court. Apart from a few small

areas, all this land was purchased by the Crown. The Court in its first decade in Te Raki,

at least in Puhipuhi–Whakapara, was part of a process in which a few individuals sold

large amounts of land. Title hearings were prompted by the payment of advances and

pressure from Crown purchase agents. Few alienation restrictions were issued and the

Court's issuing of title led directly to land sales and large-scale land loss.

These hearings had far-reaching consequences not just for local Maori but for the Court

process in Te Raki. What happened in Puhipuhi–Whakapara was, at least from the

Crown's perspective, an early and successful trial of tactics that would prove

devastatingly effective in Te Raki in the coming years. As will be shown, from the mid- 156 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 936-939; Berghan, A39(e), p194; Rigby, A56, Appendix A, p 1. This is my understanding of the chronology, but the lack of title information on Hukerenui makes it possible, although unlikely, that Kawiti had already secured title to the land before he offered it as security for the loan. 157 Derby, A61, in various places 158 Derby, A61, pp 30, 96; Rigby, A56, Appendix A, p 8

68

1870s the Court in Te Raki frequently granted title to a few Maori who had already

received advance payments for the land and wished to complete the transaction. This

pattern of advance payments, awarding land to those who were already committed to

selling it, and then final sale risked dispossessing Maori by allowing large areas of land

to be sold without communal control or general consent. It also posed real risks for the

integrity and independence of the Court. The Court was tacitly encouraged to act as an

assistant or agent to the Crown's land purchasing department rather than as an

independent judicial body charged with weighty investigative and protective

responsibilities. This danger would only grow in the following years.

2. Chapter Two: The Court and Crown Land

Purchasing, 1875–1880

2.1. Introduction Between 1875 and 1880, the Native Land Court cemented its dominance in Te Raki and

emerged as a key element and ally in the Crown's land purchasing programme in the

region. During its first decade, the Court's impact – and the way it was used and seen by

Te Raki Maori – was far from uniform. While it was associated with large-scale

alienations and landlessness in some parts of Te Raki, Maori in other parts of the

inquiry district had restricted and not necessarily negative interaction with the Court.

They retained significant amounts of land in customary tenure while using the Court to

gain legal title over generally small blocks. Legal title was sought for diverse reasons,

including as part of efforts by local Maori to achieve economic development. While the

benefits of this type of interaction with the Court were initially limited, so were the

drawbacks.

But from 1875, the Court's key influence upon Te Raki was unmistakable. It was an

integral part of the process by which Maori land was transferred to the Crown. Most

importantly, the Court awarded large areas of formerly communally controlled land to

small numbers of individual Maori who were already arranging to sell it to the Crown.

Simultaneously, the Crown was also snapping up land that had earlier come under the

Court system. The unprecedented speed and scale of land transactions during these

years encouraged local Maori to seek legal title over their remaining lands. These few

years were the period in which the Native Land Court had the most effect on Te Raki

Maori. From this time on, the Native Land Court was inextricably connected, in the view

of Te Raki Maori, with massive land loss. The Court during this period was shaped and

defined by its role in Crown land purchasing.

70

2.2. The Court in Control Between 1875 and 1880, traditional, collective methods of holding Maori land became a

diminishing force in Te Raki. In 1865, when the Native Land Court became operative, Te

Raki Maori had at least 935,755 acres of land in customary tenure. By 1880, at least

581,060 acres had gone under the Crown's land titling system. This was 62.10 percent

of all known Maori land in Te Raki. If land that went before the Court during an

unknown period is excluded, we can say that approximately 69.8 percent of the Court's

titling of Te Raki had taken place by 1880. By that time, most of the Court's work – at

least in terms of bringing Maori land into the Crown's tenurial system and awarding

ownership to individuals – had been done.

The Court system was by this point dominant in all five sub-regions. In Whangarei, the

largest of the sub-regions, 78.1 percent of land that was Maori-owned in 1865 had been

titled by the Court by 1880. Most Maori land in Hokianga (63.2 percent), Bay of Islands

(57 percent) and Whangaroa (59.4 percent) sub-regions had also come under the new,

individualised system of land tenure. This is shown in the table and graph below.

The situation was more extreme in Mahurangi and the Gulf Islands where the first years

of the Court largely extinguished customary tenure. Between 1865 and 1880, the Court

ordered title to be issued to 81.8 percent of Maori-owned land in this sub-region. Much

of the remaining land, including the one substantial area of Maori land remaining in

customary title, the off-shore island of Hauturu (6,960 acres), was already before the

Court and awaiting final titling.159

The Crown's titling system spread at a rate not seen before or after in Te Raki. Between

1875 and 1880, at least 255,000 acres of Maori land was titled by the Court at an

average of more than 42,643 acres per year. This was even quicker than the period

between 1865 and 1874, when around 325,200 acres was titled at an average of 32,520

acres per year (see table and graph below).

The Court was most active in the Whangarei sub-region, awarding title to 132,749 acres

of previously customary land. It was also busy making title determinations in Hokianga

involving 52,003 acres, the Bay of Islands 39,568 acres, and Whangaroa 24,567 acres.

As has been seen, there was little left for the Court to do in Mahurangi and the Gulf

Islands with customary title and Maori land ownership already on its way out.

As with the previous decade, the Court established many small blocks, but most Maori

land that went through the Court was concentrated in a few large titles. The Court

issued memorials of ownership to 202 new Native Land Court blocks between 1875 and

1880. Only 11 were larger than 5,000 acres but these blocks accounted for a combined

101,856.6 acres. By contrast, the 59 blocks of 100 acres or fewer held a combined total

of just 2,045.6 acres.

2.3. The Turning Point: 1875–1876 The short period from 1875 to 1876 can be considered the turning point in the history

of the Court in Te Raki and its role in Maori land loss. During these years the Court was

busier and, in terms of its role in Maori land loss, had a greater impact than at any other

stage before or after.

This was a sudden surge. In 1874, Court activities had largely ground to a halt in Te

Raki, with just 127.9 acres of Maori land titled. But the Court's apparent irrelevance was

short-lived in 1875 the Court awarded title to about 138,043 acres (see table and graph

below). Crown purchasing agents were already active in the district and would play a

significant role in a flood of new applications and title determinations.

As Armstrong and Subasic discuss, the Crown's land purchasing programme in Te Raki

began in earnest in 1874.160 Its agents sought to acquire land that had already been

titled by the Native Land Court – and therefore had legally recognised owners – but

focused much of their efforts on acquiring large chunks of customary land. The fact that

these customary lands were not legally alienable and had no legally recognised owners

proved an only temporary and easily overcome barrier to the Crown. Its purchasing

agents were soon confidently claiming, even before the Court had met, that they had

acquired or were about to acquire large areas in Te Raki.161

What the Crown needed to complete these transactions was for the Court to play its part

and issue legally-alienable title to these lands, particularly to Maori willing to sell them.

Initially, purchasing agents were frustrated by delays caused by the Court process,

which they believed should facilitate and serve the Crown's purchasing agenda, not

complicate or delay it. In August 1874, the Crown's most prolific purchasing agent in Te

Raki, E T Brissenden, suggested to Native Minister Donald McLean that the Native Land

Court should be instructed to relax its 'technical' requirements when ruling on lands the

Government wanted to buy in Te Raki as:

the large nature of Government transactions, the fact that the Government is purchasing on public account and in the interest of the whole colony, renders it a not unreasonable demand that blocks handed over by them for investigation by the Native Land Court should not be governed by the cast-iron rules which are applied, and properly applied, to private purchasers.162

Brissenden argued that Native Land Court judges should be requested ‘to give the

utmost facility to the passage of Government blocks through the Court, and to waive the

enforcement of technical rules in such cases’.163

In general, Court officials were supportive of Crown land purchasing and sympathetic to

the wishes of its purchase agents. Even Judge Maning, who strongly opposed aspects of

the interaction between the Court and Crown purchasing agents, met with Brissenden

in September 1874 to discuss how the title investigation process could better facilitate

land alienation. Armstrong and Subasic detail Maning's quite extraordinary suggestions

about how this could be achieved, including the idea that purchase agents could, in

effect, replace the Native Land Court and decide which Maori were entitled to own (and

sell) lands, and, apparently, that Brissenden be appointed a judge to aid his purchasing

efforts.164

Such overt breaches of the Court's nominal independence were neither carried out in Te

Raki nor needed by Crown purchasing agents. By 1875, the twin processes of Court

titling and Crown purchasing were proceeding at a remarkable rate. Court hearings

were taking place throughout Te Raki (except in the Mahurangi and Gulf Islands sub-

region), with much of the land, especially in the larger blocks, acquired by the Crown

soon after title was awarded. Rigby calculated that in 1875 the Crown completed the

purchase of 207,382 acres of Maori land in Te Raki. In 1876, it acquired another

113,937 acres. Together this represented just over 70 percent of the acreage purchased

by the Crown in the inquiry district between 1875 and 1880. As Rigby notes, before or

162 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 657 163 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 659-660 164 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 649, 1028

79

after, there was 'nothing comparable' to these 'two remarkable years' of Crown

purchasing.165

Armstrong and Subasic argue that this 'frenzy' of purchasing was 'the beginning of the

economic and political demise of northern Maori'.166 It was the most hectic two years of

Crown land purchasing in Te Raki history, unmatched by either the Crown's pre-1865

acquisitions or the 1890s wave of buying under the Liberal Government. These two

years did much to define both life in Te Raki and the character of the Court for the rest

of the 19th century and beyond. Rigby calculates that around half of all Crown

purchasing between 1865 and 1900 took place in 1875–1876.167

After this surge, Crown

purchasing slowed but did not stop. Between 1877 and the end of 1880, the Crown

acquired another 118,449 acres of Maori land in Te Raki.

The Court was an essential part of this purchasing. From 1875, it worked quickly and –

at least in the view of Crown purchasing agents – efficiently to issue title to Maori land

that the Crown then purchased. In 1875, the Court issued memorials of ownership for

more than 207,000 acres, the most Maori land ever titled in a single year in Te Raki. The

Court would never issue anywhere near this amount of land title again, and during the

period from 1875 to 1880, the Crown purchased more land than the Court titled. (This

data is shown in bold the table below and is circled on the accompanying graph). But

the relative slowdown in Court activities was not an impediment to Crown purchasers.

Rather, it was a reflection that the Crown's desire for new hearings and new purchases

2.4. The Crown Purchasing Process and the Court The Native Land Court in Te Raki was confronted with major and opposing pressures

during this period. The most transformative challenge was the extent and nature of the

Crown's purchasing programme. In particular, the influence and tactics used by Crown

purchase agents posed a challenge to the independence of the Court.

Armstrong and Subasic argue that the Crown routinely made advance payments to Te

Raki Maori who were not yet the legal owners of the land in question, and then sought

to have the Court grant title to these individuals so that sale could be completed.168

As

shown above, Crown agents such as Brissenden already viewed these lands as

'Government blocks' and expected the Court to act in the 'interest of the whole colony'

and issue title in such a way that would ensure the speedy completion of sale.

As mentioned, there is a lack of transparency and documentation surrounding the

interaction between Crown purchasing and Court decisions during this period.

Nonetheless, the evidence available suggests that Crown purchase agents played an

intimate and multi-faceted role in the Court process. Crown agents were in frequent

contact, both formal and informal, with Court officials. By negotiating and making

payments prior to Court title determination, they effectively selected who they wished

to be named as the legal owners.169 Crown agents assisted would-be grantees/vendors

to navigate the Court process, including arranging for the land to be surveyed – and the

survey costs to be paid for out of subsequent payments for land – and making

applications for hearings on their behalf.170 Brissenden, Preece, Nelson, Kemp, and

other purchasing officers were also routinely present during Court hearings. At times,

they explicitly informed Court officials of the advance payments and purchasing

arrangements they had made and who they wished the land to be granted to in order to

give effect to those arrangements. In any case, Court officials were well aware of the

extent of Crown pre-title land dealings.171

168 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 677, 702-703 169 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 689, 702-704 170 Clarkson, A58, p 35; Daamen et al, H2, p 238; Berghan, A39(g), p 180 171 Berghan, A39(e), p 269; Berghan, A39(g), p 180; Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 707-711

83

It is likely – although there is little explicit evidence for this – that Crown purchase

agents played an important role in the informal discussions that took place during Court

hearings and recesses that were vital in selecting which Maori would appear on the

memorial of ownership. Crown purchasing agents sometimes gave evidence during title

determinations and lobbied the Native Minister to reject applications for any title

rehearings that might complicate their purchase plans. The courtroom itself was often

used as the place to complete transactions, with judges acting as witnesses to the final

payments.172

There was consequently a considerable risk that Crown purchasing agents would have

undue direct or indirect influence over the Court's titling process. This was particularly

dangerous in that the Crown's agents wanted particular Maori installed as owners so

that they could sell the land. Crown agents generally preferred to deal with a minimum

number of vendors, and, according to Armstrong and Subasic, did little to determine

whether those they were dealing with were the only right holders to the land in

question. They suggest that Crown purchase agents in Te Raki were sometimes careless

and rushed into deciding who they would make advance payments to and support

during the Court process. Purchase agents often dealt with prominent chiefs but there is

little evidence that the Crown – or subsequently the Court – ascertained whether these

leaders had the support of all of their own community, let alone that of other tribes and

communities, in these title and selling arrangements. In areas with histories of complex

tribal disputes, the Crown sometimes dealt with individuals from only one of the rival

groups. Indeed, Armstrong and Subasic suggest that on some occasions the Crown used

any willing vendor without investigating the legitimacy of their interests.173

Advance payments – and the resulting Court hearings – proved to be 'remarkably

effective' in securing vast areas of Te Raki land for the Crown, especially as Maori who

received advances felt bound to the agreement and rarely refused completion.174

172 Berghan A39(f), p 40; Clarkson, A58, pp 55-57. The Native Land Court Act 1873 required that signatures to Crown purchases be witnessed by a Native Land Court judge or Resident Magistrate plus one other 'credible' witness. See Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 655

Advance payments deepened the individualising tendencies of the Court process and

173 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 681-683, 689-696, 702-704 174 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 678

84

further undermined the already restricted ability of Te Raki Maori to collectively

control, limit and benefit from the sale of their land. These payments encouraged and

enabled individuals to seek title and sell land themselves, without necessarily receiving

communal backing. But advances also drew others, including important chiefs, into the

land-titling and selling process. It would seem to have been a regular occurrence in Te

Raki that Crown agents made their initial advance payment to less prominent Maori.

This provoked some chiefs to try to take the lead role in purchase negotiations, title

hearings and sales.

The result of advance payments was hearings and sales but also sometimes confusion

and anger. The area to be included in the eventual sale was usually not precisely

defined. Instead, Crown agents sought some sort of vague preliminary agreement that

would bind the vendors to complete the sale after the Court process was successfully

managed. Maori were often tied to selling land to the Crown at low prices and prevented

from dealing with private purchasers. Advances led to conflict between vendors and

those Maori who discovered, often during surveys in advance of title hearings, that

others were seeking to gain title and sell land they claimed an interest in. Indeed,

Armstrong and Subasic equated it to dynamite.175

2.5. The Native Land Act 1873 If Crown purchasing tactics posed problems for Te Raki Maori, they could also be

considered a challenge to the entire purpose of the Native Land Court. The Crown's land

titles (and land purchasing) system was purportedly built around the concept that the

Court investigated and issued title to those it considered to be the customary owners of

a block. The Court defined the legal owners of land. Only subsequently, and subject to

the restrictions and conditions imposed by the Court, could Crown or private

purchasers discuss purchasing land from the legal owners.176

Advance payments threatened to uproot this system. They meant that the Court's titling

process followed the path of purchase negotiation, not vice versa. Pre-payments were

'absolutely void' under the law. They were not illegal but they had no official standing in 175 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 45, 689-691 176 Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, pp 50-51

85

the Court's system.177

The Court's responsibility was to determine who held ownership

rights to land, not to issue title to those who wished to sell to the Crown.

The Native Land Act 1873 appeared to strengthen the Court's responsibility to carry out

thorough investigations into who had customary rights to land brought before the court,

so that it could name all those with interests on the memorial of ownership. Numerous

authors have argued that this Act furthered the individualisation of Maori land

ownership and contributed to the destruction of communal society.178

Nonetheless, for

our current discussion, the key point is that section 47 of the Act appeared to obligate

the Court to ascertain and list every person with interests in the land on the memorial of

ownership. Given that the Act did not provide for any form of Maori representative or

trustee ownership, Maori rights to land could only be legally recognised and protected

through naming each and every individual with rights to the land.

It could be argued that section 46 watered this down somewhat by allowing the Court to

adopt voluntary arrangements reached by the claimants. But even if the Court did so, it

was still required to record the names of all those consenting to the arrangement.179

Furthermore, this section apparently allowed the Court to formalise only voluntary

arrangements between claimants and cross-claimants. It did not allow, or so a

discussion on this issue by Armstrong and Subasic would seem to indicate, the Court to

award title to an individual or individuals because they claimed that the wider

community of owners had agreed to this. Legal opinion might clarify this but it would

seem that the Native Land Act 1873 required the Court to ascertain and award title to

all the owners, and not just to those claiming to be representatives or appointees.180

Careful and full investigations were needed if the Court was to have any opportunity to

fulfil these responsibilities. Under the Act, this responsibility included pre-hearing

investigations. District officers were appointed to investigate claims before they were

177 Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, pp 49-50 178 Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, pp 86-87, 91-93; Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 806-815 which summarises how the Act has been viewed. 179 Heather Bassett, Rachel Steel and Dr David Williams (writers and compilers), The Maori Land Legislation Manual Te Puka Ako Hanganga Mo Nga Ture Whenua Maori, (Wellington: Crown Forestry Rental Trust, 1994, 1995 update), section 46, Native Land Act 1873 180 See Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 707-716

86

considered by the Court, and to inform judges of any relevant information, including

whether other Maori apart from the applicants were claiming the land. Section 21

required the district officers to prepare maps and information on tribal rights.181

Section 38 required Native Land Court judges to carry out their own preliminary

investigations into whether the application for hearing was legitimate, to approve the

preparation of surveys, and to identify witnesses with important evidence that needed

to appear at the hearing.182

During this period, the Native Land Court in Te Raki was therefore often faced with two

quite contradictory pressures. Crown purchase officers wanted the Court to award title

as speedily as possible to the specific individuals they were negotiating to buy the land

from. If the Court did not, the Crown risked losing the money spent on advance

payments and, more broadly, the disruption of its entire purchasing programme.

On the other hand, the Court's governing legislation – and the already severely

threatened rights of Maori – seemed to require careful investigation followed by issuing

title to every individual with interests in the land, regardless of whether or not they had

participated in pre-hearing negotiations to sell the land. We now discuss how the Court

dealt with these pressures.

2.6. Court Operations and Crown Purchasing The Court's titling process in Te Raki proved to be of tremendous assistance to Crown

purchase agents during this period. Title to large blocks was regularly awarded to a few

individuals who were willing to sell the land to the Crown. In many cases, those

awarded title had received pre-payments or indicated their willingness to sell the land.

For Crown purchase agents, the road from pre-title negotiation to title determination

and then to finalised alienations was often remarkably smooth.

Despite the new legislative requirements of the 1873 Native Land Act, there appears to

have been few changes in the mode and thoroughness of the Native Land Court's

inquiries in Te Raki. The limited available evidence indicates that title determinations 181 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 682; Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, p 87 182 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 683; Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, p 87

87

were sometimes brief, with evidence given and a decision completed after a day or less

of hearing. In some cases, including those involving large blocks, there was no or

relatively little opposition to the main applicants, and little indication of in-depth

questioning and cross-examination.

As in the earlier decade, the Court continued to be willing – even keen – to rubber-

stamp out-of-court arrangements over title matters. This continued even though the

Court was sometimes explicitly informed, and could not but be aware, that many of

these arrangements would result in the immediate sale of the land. Despite the apparent

requirement of the Native Land Act 1873 that all owners be named on the memorial of

ownership, the Court frequently awarded land to a few individuals presumably on the

basis that they had been selected by, or represented, wider groups of owners. As will be

discussed, a senior Court official protested, largely in vain, about this practice.

Other features and requirements of the 1873 Native Land Act were also overlooked in

the rush toward title determination and alienation. District officers were eventually

appointed, including W E Webster in the Hokianga and Mangonui districts, Gilbert Mair

in the Bay of Islands, and H T Kemp in Kaipara.183 However, there is little to suggest that

they offered Maori much protection or contributed to more in-depth inquiries.184

Webster did at least attend some Native Land Court hearings, but aside from a minor

part in a case discussed below, what role he played is not clear.185

During research for this report no examples of district officers carrying out pre-hearing

investigations were found. The only mention seen of the issue revolved around a failure

to carry out pre-hearing investigations. In January 1875, Native Minister Donald

McLean criticised Webster for not providing the Crown and the Court with sufficient

information or context before surveys of the Otangaroa and Kaingapipiwai (Te Patoa)

blocks were approved. These surveys, sparked by Crown land purchase negotiations

183 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 682 184 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 682-683; Geiringer, Wai 45 F10, p 88 185 Alexandra Horsley, ‘A History of the Otangaroa, Te Pupuke, and Waihapa Blocks (Whangaroa) 1874-1990’, Waitangi Tribunal, 2016, Wai 1040, A57, p 60 shows Webster attended the Otangaroa hearing in 1875. Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, p 88, states that Webster often attended hearings in the Muriwhenua inquiry district.

88

and the subsequent need for a title hearing, resulted in fierce complaints from chiefs

who had not approved them.186

The requirement that Native Land Court judges carry out preliminary investigations

also failed to make much of an impression. Apart from some sporadic and reluctant

preliminary investigations by Maning, there is no evidence that this requirement was

regularly met in Te Raki. Armstrong and Subasic suggest that the few judges operating

in the area were fully occupied with the Court's busy hearing schedule and it would

have been almost impossible for them to thoroughly investigate matters beforehand.

Maning, at least, disapproved of the requirement and successfully asked that judges be

relieved of some of their responsibilities.187

Most importantly, the Court's official

records and decision-making process do not suggest that judges were especially vigilant

in carrying out preliminary 'extra' investigations.

A striking feature of the Court's operations during this period was the awarding of

blocks to a small number of Maori. Despite the requirements of the Native Land Court to

name everyone who had rights to the land, most blocks were awarded to just a handful

of individuals. Many blocks, including large areas that were then immediately sold to

the Crown, were awarded to a single individual. Current information suggests that in

about 78 percent of cases during this period, the Court awarded title to 10 people or

fewer. The average amount of awardees for blocks in Te Raki during this period was 7.9.

Even this low number somewhat misrepresents the general situation as it factors in the

handful of blocks awarded to a large number of owners such as Omapere in the Bay of

Island sub-region awarded to over 200 owners.188

Tellingly, blocks awarded to large

numbers of owners were often not sold to the Crown during this period.

186 Horsley, A57, p 53. Derby, A61, pp 91-92 does not suggest that Webster carried out prehearing investigations in the case of Puhipuhi but, rather, on Judge Maning's instructions, tried to arrange an out-of-court agreement between rival claimants. 187 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 683, 686-689 188 Berghan, A39(e), p 76

As the examples below suggest, the awarding of title to a small number of owners was a

reflection of how the Crown's purchasing programme influenced and overshadowed the

Court's investigative responsibilities. Crown purchasing agents – and Maori land-sellers

– generally preferred to establish large blocks with few owners. The crucial decisions on

who would be named on the title were often taken before or outside the Court hearings.

purchase agents appear to have exercised a degree of direct and indirect influence over

titling decisions.189

Those who had received the advances, and were designated to sell

the land to the Crown, were usually awarded title.

In the following case studies, there is little indication that the Court set out to ascertain

and list all the individuals with rights to the land in question. Indeed, it strains

credibility to think that Native Land Court judges genuinely believed that the few

individuals named on memorials of ownership represented the sum total of Maori with

valid connections to the land in question.190

Instead, it would seem likely that, in many

cases, that the Court accepted or assumed that the few individuals put forward were

representatives of wider groups of owners.

Without doubt, there was a degree of Maori communal and chiefly agency behind the

out-of-court arrangements that established who would be named on many memorials of

ownership. Chiefs and their communities were seeking to make the best of their

circumscribed opportunities and gain a degree of control over the Native Land Court

process and their lands. But the naming of a few individuals as absolute owners of large

blocks, especially as they were often under pressure from, and in negotiations with,

Crown purchase agents, carried with it considerable dangers.

The Court, it would seem, did not investigate whether these 'representatives' had the

support of all those with rights to the land. Judge Maning suspected that many northern

Maori with land rights did not want title to be awarded to their purported

'representatives'. According to Maning, this 'silent majority' were too intimidated to

openly oppose the chiefs and 'representatives' but hoped, usually unsuccessfully, that

the Court would protect their interests:

they are ashamed, unwilling, or afraid to oppose the wishes of the chiefs in court and hope that the law will take their case in hand and recognise their rights ...191

Granting large blocks to a few individuals was especially problematic in cases where

more than one tribal group or community claimed rights to the land. Often in Te Raki

189 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 702-704 190 See Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, pp 89-91 for a discussion on Judge Monro and this issue. 191 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 713

92

during this period, only the main applicants and a few of their supporters played an

active role in title determinations concerning large blocks that were then immediately

sold to the Crown. It would seem that, in many of these cases, other groups and leaders

were not at the Court. It is not clear whether they were unaware of the hearings, unable

to attend, or refused to take part. Regardless of the reason, their absence or silence –

and the Court's failure to investigate and acknowledge all those who had customary

interests in the land – usually meant they were not awarded legal rights and others

quickly sold the land without their clear approval.

Perhaps the central problem with the Court's naming of a few individuals on memorials

of ownership, even if they were prominent chiefs, was that these owners were not legal

representatives or trustees. Instead, they were absolute owners entitled, and often

planning, to sell the land. The Crown purchased vast areas of Te Raki Maori land during

this period without clearly securing or even seeking the consent of most Te Raki Maori,

either individually or collectively.

During this period, the number of people who legally received title to Te Raki land bore

no resemblance to the number of Te Raki Maori who claimed customary rights and

were connected to and reliant on the land. As will be seen, with no corporate title and

with Crown purchasing agents active in the area, there was a high risk that many Maori

would be dispossessed and that quick, non-transparent land transactions without wide

community involvement would take place.

94

2.6.1. Pakanae The Pakanae block near Hokianga Harbour is a telling example of how the Native Land

Court titling system, in combination with Crown purchasing tactics, led to the alienation

of vast areas of Te Raki Maori land. As Coralie Clarkson's report details, the application

for title determination for this block of 13,642 acres came before Judge Monro in June

1875.192

(Some of the many other title determinations during this particular hearing

that resulted in Crown purchases will be examined below.) After hearings of less than a

day, Monro granted the two main portions of the block, Pakanae No. 1 (9,064 acres) and

Pakanae No. 3 (3,150 acres), to only a few owners, despite evidence pointing to many

other interest-holders in the land. Some of those awarded title had already accepted

money to sell the land to the Crown. The sales were completed just days after the

hearings. The fact that final payment and deed signing for these blocks took place within

the courtroom was symbolically apt, given the close connection between the Court

process and the Crown's purchase of Pakanae.

As was common in Te Raki during this period, the Pakanae title determinations were

prompted by Crown purchasing efforts. In 1874, Brissenden and his subcontracted

agent, Charles Nelson, secured the Crown's hold on the land by making three separate

advance payments; two of them to a group led by Hapakuku Moetara. Although

Hapakuku officially received both advance and final payments, and was named on the

title alone, he was apparently acting on behalf of his father, Rangatira Moetara.193 These

payments were accompanied by promises of considerably more money, with Nelson

initially suggesting that the final price would be ten shillings or more per acre. In

actuality, Hapakuku Moetara and the other sellers received a considerably lower price

amounting to one shilling three pence per acre.194

Some of the Maori who accepted these pre-payments may have been lured into debt by

Nelson, who provided them with goods before pressing them to pay the resulting debt

through selling land. Nelson later explained that, during the Pakanae negotiations:

192 Clarkson, A58, pp 50-51 193 Clarkson, A58, p 56 194 Clarkson, A58, p 55

95

my functions, being the more facile portion of the work, might have been performed by any country shopkeeper of mediocre business tact, provided that he could speak a little Maori and had the ‘sugar’ wherewith to stimulate the palates of our dusky indigenes ...195

Hone Mohi Tawhai, a chief and Native Land Court assessor, was involved in this and

other title hearings and transactions in the areas. He led a group that were paid £50 by

Crown agents as part of the pre-title negotiations over Pakanae. It is not clear what

exactly he was paid for but during the Pakanae hearings, Tawhai argued that Hapakuku

was entitled to sole ownership over Pakanae No. 1 and declined to make any claims to

the land himself.196

Following the negotiations and advance payments, Hapakuku, Rangatira Moetara, and

Wiremu Rangatira, applied on 28 December 1874 for a title investigation into the

Pakanae block. Before the hearing began, it was decided, presumably with Crown

involvement, to have the Court divide the block into 5 (later 6) sections with the two

main portions, Pakanae 1 and Pakanae 3 encompassing almost 90 percent of the total

land and destined to be sold to the Crown. Although Rangatira Moetara was apparently

the lead figure in the sale and title arrangement, his son Hapakuku was the only name

installed on the memorial of ownership of Pakanae No. 1. It was he who then completed

the sale to the Crown. It may well be that the early negotiations between Crown and

Maori included an agreement on how the survey would be paid for. Surveying costs

would come to £260 15s 9d, and were apparently deducted out of the final purchase

price for Pakanae 1 and 3, accounting for a third of that sum.197

For Crown purchase agents and the would-be sellers, the Court's investigations into

Pakanae moved quickly and easily to the granting of title. Hapakuku told the Court that

his tribe Ngati Korokoro wanted him to hold title alone to Pakanae 1. Tawhai and a

number of others then rose to confirm Hapakuku had ‘the mana over the land’. Two

opponents to Hapakuku's claim were present in Court but quickly withdrew their

opposition.198

195 Clarkson, A58, p 54

196 Clarkson, A58, p 51 197 Clarkson, A58, p 35 198 Clarkson, A58, pp 40-41

96

The inquiry into which other individuals and groups may hold rights to these large

areas seems to have been perfunctory, if it took place at all. There is no evidence that

the Court or the district officer carried out pre-hearing investigations. The hearing itself

lasted less than a day and little evidence was recorded in the minute book.199

Despite the lack of in-depth inquiry, the Court did hear evidence that suggested

Hapakuku Moetara was not the sole Maori who held rights to the land. This came from

Hapakuku Moetara himself who stated that his tribe, Ngati Korokoro, had occupied the

area for many generations. They had a permanent settlement there as well as pa and

burial places. It was a significant food source and Moetara stated that the 'whole of

Pakanae Valley was covered by our [Ngati Korokoro's] cultivations. We also had

cultivations among the Hills’.200

Although Hapakuku Moetara clearly was claiming rights

to the land as a representative of his people, he became the sole legal owner of the

block.

Although Hapakuku claimed that Ngati Korokoro agreed that he alone should be named

on the title, the Court's responsibility under the Native Land Act 1873 would seem to

have been to name on the memorial of ownership all of those with rights to the land.201

Even Rangatira Moetara, the lead figure in the negotiations with the Crown over the

block, and others who had received advance payments by the Crown for the land, were

not included in the title. The Court had cleared the way for Hapakuku to immediately

sell the land. Sale of the block was automatically prohibited under section 48 of the

Native Land Act 1873 but the Act contained a proviso allowing the land to be sold if all

owners agreed. Hapakuku was the only owner. A week after the hearing, he and the

Crown purchase agents returned to the courtroom to complete the payments and sign

the deed. Nelson, the Crown’s purchase agent, was the interpreter who provided the

obligatory explanation of the nature of the transaction.202

On 10 June 1875, Pakanae 3 (3,150 acres) came before the Court. Again, the Court

approved, with little investigation, title and sale arrangements that had been reached 199 Clarkson, A58, pp 39-44; Berghan, A39(f), p 40 200 Clarkson, A58, pp 18, 40 201 Clarkson, A58, p 40 202 Clarkson, A58, pp 41, 55-56

out of court. Te Waharoa told the Court that it had been arranged for him and Rawiri Te

Tahua to be named as owners of the block. When Remi Te Tai protested about this, the

Court adjourned to allow matters to be settled informally. These negotiations probably

involved Crown purchase agents Brissenden and Nelson, who were at the courtroom

and were poised to complete the purchase of this block. Two days later, the Court heard

that matters had been satisfactorily arranged. Te Waharoa presented a list of 10 people

to be named on the title. Remi did not object and the Court issued the memorial of

ownership without further inquiry. On 18 June, the 10 named owners returned to the

Court to sell Pakanae No. 3 to the Crown. Nelson once again explained the deed in Te

Reo Maori.203

2.6.2. Titling and Acquiring Land in Mangakahia During this period, Crown purchasing agents – and therefore the Native Land Court –

were especially active in Mangakahia in the Whangarei sub-region. A number of reports

discuss the historical background to these purchases, with all emphasising the area's

complex and volatile disputes between competing groups and chiefs over land rights.

Since the 1850s, the Crown, and its land purchasing efforts, had been a key factor in

these disputes. So were claims by Europeans to land in the area arising from pre-1840

transactions, including by Reverend Charles Baker.

The Crown's efforts to buy land in Mangakahia – and sidestep the problems caused by

multiple, contesting claimants to the land – were aided by the Native Land Court system.

The Crown conducted pre-title land purchasing negotiations with a few individual

Maori. The land was brought before the Court with title awarded to those individuals.

The purchases were then speedily completed. We will look now at two important,

neighbouring parts of Mangakahia where the Court issued ownership to a handful of

individual Maori, despite the fact that many others traditionally (and had recently)

claimed rights to the land. Moreover, the Court was informed – and could not but be

aware – that if the land was indeed granted to the handful of applicants, it would be

quickly purchased by the Crown.

Perhaps the clearest example of the nexus between Crown purchasing and Court

decisions involved five blocks in Mangakahia. Collectively these blocks constituted

nearly 80,000 acres and they were granted to a single individual – Kamariera Te

Wharepapa – who then sold the land to the Crown in February 1876. This was the

Crown's largest group of purchases from a single vendor in Te Raki and a major factor

in the success of its purchasing programme.204

Despite their importance in the history

of Te Raki, the Court’s title investigation hearings and the Crown's purchases are poorly

documented. But the limited evidence does raise the possibility that, in at least one of

these blocks, the Court tailored its title determination decision to facilitate the purchase

of the land by the Crown.

204 Rigby, A56, p 4

100

In early 1873, John White attempted to acquire Mangakahia land on behalf of the

Auckland Provincial Government. He focused initially on land that the Crown, and the

Reverend Charles Baker, had long and unsuccessfully sought title over.205 This area,

which apparently overlapped with what would become the Oue block was disputed by a

bewildering number of chiefs and tribes. The most prominent rivalry, which led to war

in 1862, was between the supporters of Matiu Te Aranui – including elements of Bay of

Islands and Hokianga Nga Puhi – against the chiefs Te Tirarau Kukupa, Parore Te Awha,

and their allies.206 In 1873, White paid 'Matiu' (perhaps Matiu Te Aranui) a deposit for

the land. White then travelled with two Mangakahia Maori to Helensville to apply for a

Court hearing and arrange a survey. White's efforts to have Matiu installed on the title

and sell the land collapsed, apparently due to resistance from other right holders.

Crown purchase agent Thomas McDonnell condemned White for 'conferring with two

only, out of many influential chiefs, who are very much irritated in consequence’.207

Despite this criticism, the Crown abandoned neither its efforts nor it methods of

acquiring the land. The Crown continued to pay advances and attempt to arrange for the

title to be allocated to a small number of willing sellers. What changed was the

personnel involved, and the extent of the land the Crown was seeking to acquire. White

was replaced with more effective employees from the Native Land Purchase

Department. On 27 June 1874, Brissenden made an advance payment of £125 to Paora

Riwi and others.208

It is not clear what precise area was discussed, but this payment

would eventually form the basis of the Crown's purchase of the Oue block including land

claimed by Reverend Baker. The question confronting the Crown was how it could turn

this legally void payment over a highly disputed and complex area into a binding

acquisition. An answer to this dilemma, and more importantly still, a way for the Crown

to acquire far larger parts of Mangakahia, soon revealed itself.

The Native Land Court granted much of the land surrounding Oue to a single person –

and a willing seller – Kamariera Te Wharepapa. In May 1875, the Native Land Court

205 Daamen et al, H2, p 238 206 Thomas, Wai 674 H1, pp 170-203; Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 266-280 207 Daamen et al, H2, p 238 208 Berghan, A39(e), p 270 for payment; Rigby, A56, Appendix A, p 4 that Brissenden made the initial payment.

101

awarded the title to the Pekepekarau (5,220 acres) and Waerekahakaha (2,520 acres)

blocks to Te Wharepapa. Around this time, he was also awarded sole ownership of two

neighbouring blocks, Opouteke (42,000 acres) and Kairara (25,700 acres).209 It is not

clear how the Court came to the conclusion that Te Wharepapa was the only Maori with

interests in 78,440 acres of Mangakahia land. The little available evidence suggests

these hearings were brief with no opponents to Te Wharepapa's claims present and

little focus on customary rights. Instead, the minutes to the Waerekahakaha title

determination succinctly note that all parties in the courtroom agreed that Te

Wharepapa would be the only name on the memorial of ownership.210

These awards made Te Wharepapa a potentially vital ally to the Crown's purchasing

programme. He was able – and willing – to singlehandedly sell these four large blocks to

the Crown. He may, even before the hearings, have agreed to do so and received

advance payments, although direct evidence regarding this has not been located.

Moreover, Crown purchase agent J W Preece wanted Te Wharepapa to also secure title

over and sell Oue. It appears that Preece and Te Wharepapa approached Paora Riwi and

others who had accepted pre-payments of £125 in 1874. From the limited evidence

available it appears that they made an arrangement that Te Wharepapa would be the

'front man' or proxy for the Oue hearing and transaction. He would be named on the

title and formally sell it to the Crown but would receive no money for this block. Paora

Riwi and others had already in 1874 received the entire payment for the block of £125.

The Crown would make no further payment but did set aside a reserve of 100 acres. It is

not clear whom this reserve was allocated to.211

The Court acquiesced in this arrangement. On 1 February 1876, evidently at or near a

Court hearing, Preece, on behalf of the Crown, purchased the Kairara, Opouteke,

Pekepekerau and Waerekahakaha blocks from Te Wharepapa for a total of £6,607. The

next day, Preece and Te Wharepapa appeared in front of the Court to arrange the title of

209 Rigby, A56, Appendix A, pp 1, 4, 8 for size of blocks. For date of hearings, see Berghan, A39(f), p 191; doc A39(h), p40 210 Berghan, A39(h), p 40. Note that Berghan provides no information on some of these blocks and their title hearings. 211 Rigby, A56, Appendix A, p 4, Appendix B; Berghan, A39(e), pp 268-270

102

Oue. Preece explained to the Court that this block had been subject to negotiations by

Reverend Baker before 1840 but that the Crown now sought to acquire it and had

recently made payments to extinguish ongoing Maori claims to the area. Preece

produced invoices for the Crown's payments. He then explained that the agreement

between the Crown and these claimants revolved around the Court appointing Te

Wharepapa as the sole owner so he could then transfer the land to the Crown. Te

Wharepapa then confirmed Preece's account.212 There is nothing to suggest that Te

Wharepapa claimed to the Court that he held sole rights over Oue. On the contrary, it

had long been clear to Crown officials that many different groups claimed rights in the

area. Nor did the Court inquire into the long and complex history of this land. Rather, it

agreed with the request of the soon-to-be buyer and seller, and named only Te

Wharepapa on the memorial of ownership. He sold the block (3,968 acres) almost

immediately to the Crown. The 100-acre reserve remained in Maori ownership until

1911.213

These Mangakahia blocks were a striking example of how the Court's processes were

used to facilitate large-scale land sales. The Court's willingness to award land to a single

owner or a few individual Maori, despite knowing others claimed rights to the land, was

shown clearly in the Oue hearing. Indeed, it could be argued that the Court on this

occasion ignored its responsibilities under the 1873 Native Land Act to grant title to all

those with rights in the land. Instead, it acted as a knowing and willing partner in the

Crown's purchasing arrangements.

Figure 10: Purua, Tangihua and other blocks in the Whangarei and Mangakahia sub-regions

2.6.3. Purua, Tangihua, Wairua, and other Blocks in Whangarei Interaction between the Crown's purchasing agents and the Court played a key role in

the purchase of a number of other blocks in the Whangarei district. A succession of

Crown land-purchasing agents used broadly similar tactics to the nearby Mangakahia

purchases with advance payments to a handful of individual chiefs and controlled Court

hearings to secure large areas of land. This led in June 1875 to the purchase of the Purua

(15,410 acres) and Tangihua (15,600) blocks from Te Tirarau Kukupa and the adjoining

Wairua block (27,800 acres) from Maihi Paraone Kawiti, the Ngati Hine chief.214

214 The Purua block was granted to and purchased from Te Tirarau and Maraea Te Waiata. Tangihua was from Te Tirarau alone and Wairua from Kawiti alone.

104

While the Crown acquired around 80,000 acres from Te Wharepapa alone, attempts to

secure Tangihua, Purua, and nearby lands revolved around Te Tirarau and his relatives

and allies, including his nephew Taurau and the Nga Puhi and Te Roroa leader Parore

Te Awha. The Tangihua and Purua blocks are to the northeast and southeast of the Oue

block discussed above.

Although Brissenden led the Crown's initial efforts to acquire what became the

Tangihua and Purua blocks, Crown purchase agent H T Kemp was also involved from

December 1873. After meeting with Tirarau, Taurau, and the surveyor D Wilson in

1874, Kemp reported that he had effectively completed the purchase of the Purua and

Tangihua blocks. Around this time, Crown agents secured an agreement to buy the

neighbouring Wairua block from Kawiti.215

On 5 November 1874, Kemp, on behalf of the Maori applicants, wrote to Chief Judge

Fenton applying for a hearing into these three adjoining blocks. He explained that the

Crown had concluded arrangements to buy their estimated 59,310 acres and now 'only

waited for the Court's decision regarding the title to the blocks to complete the

payments’.216

Little information is available about the Purua and Wairua title determinations but it is

known that the hearing for Tangihua took place on 23 February 1875 in front of Judge

Symonds at Whangarei. Many Maori were at this hearing, including some of the most

influential chiefs in the district. However, some major claimants to the land were not

personally present. Although, Tirarau's claim to rights over the block was opposed by a

number of cross-claimants, the Court awarded title to him and Maraea Te Waiata.

The purchase of Tangihua was delayed – and thrust into doubt – when Kaipara chief

Arama Karaka Haututu, Paraima, and others applied for a title rehearing.217

215 Berghan, A39(g), p 190 which shows that the application for the Wairua hearing was made by Kemp at the same time as Tangihua and Purua. Derby, A61, pp 30, 98 shows that this involved Kawiti.

It was up to

the Native Minister to recommend to the Governor in Council whether the rehearings

216 Berghan, A39(g), p 190. This is Berghan's paraphrase of Kemp's letter to Fenton. 217 Berghan, A39(g) pp 190-191

105

should be granted.218 However, Crown purchasing agents were even involved in this

crucial part of the tenurial/judicial process. Kemp, anxious to complete the purchase,

warned Native Minister McLean that a rehearing would damage the standing of the

court, especially as Tirarau had been present at the initial hearing while Arama Karaka

and Paraima had only sent representatives. But Kemp also made it clear that a rehearing

would damage the Crown's purchasing plans. He explained that Tirarau was the

principal would-be seller of the block and argued that many Maori at the hearing had

supported the Court's decision. He believed only a rehearing stood in the way of

completing the transaction, especially given that Tirarau had arranged to give Arama

Karaka and his group some of the proceeds. The Native Minister declined to recommend

a rehearing. 219

The way was now clear for Crown purchase. On 22 and 23 June 1875, the Crown

acquired Tangihua from Tirarau and Maraea, and Purua from Tirarau alone.220 A short

time earlier, Kawiti had been granted title to and sold the nearby Wairua block to the

Crown.221

The success of these tactics led to further Court hearings and Crown purchasing

involving the same chiefs. Kawiti needed funds for his Supreme Court battle with a

Pakeha entrepreneur over gum-digging at Aukumeroa. In 1876, Crown purchase agent

Preece loaned him £200, which Kawiti would repay by selling the 3,045-acre Te

Aukumeroa block to the Crown. Judge Monro duly granted Kawiti sole ownership of the

block on 14 September 1876. Kawiti received over £380 for the sale and repaid his debt

to the Crown.222

In 1874, Brissenden made a series of advance payments for the Kioreroa block in the

Whangarei district including to Taurau, the nephew of Tirarau. It was then arranged

that Tirarau and 'Wharepapa' (presumably Kamariera Te Wharepapa) would sell the

218 The Maori Land Legislation Manual, CFRT, updated 1995, section 58, Native Land Act 1873, p 76 219 Berghan, A39(g) pp 190-191 220 Rigby, A56, Appendix A, pp 5-6 221 Rigby, A56, Appendix A, p 8; Derby, A61, pp 30, 98 222 Derby, A61, pp 115-116; Berghan, A39(c), p 38; Rigby, A56, Appendix A, p 1

106

land to the Crown. On 20 September 1876, Judge Symonds at Whangarei granted the

3,891-acre block to these two. The next day, they sold it to the Crown.223

During this period, the key decisions about title rights often seemed to be made by

purchasers and sellers, both before and during the Court’s title investigation hearings,

with the Court merely formalising their agreements. In 1874 Brissenden made a series

of advance payments to buy land near Motatau from a small group of Maori who had

recently moved there with the permission of Maihi Paraone Kawiti. It would seem

possible that this group had also been discussing a sale with a Waitangi storekeeper,

perhaps to repay debts. On 19 April 1875, Kahi Te Hura told the Court that he had no

ancestral claims to the Tokawhero block but he and others had acquired it from Kawiti

in exchange for some horses. It would seem that the Court did not inquire in depth

about the somewhat unusual basis of their claim. Instead, it adjourned to allow out-of-

court discussions which seem to have included Brissenden and the storekeeper. It was

decided to split the block into two, with one part to be sold to the Crown and the other

to the storekeeper. The Court agreed to their requests to grant Tokawhero No. 1 (2,083

acres) to five claimants. It was then sold to the Crown. Tokawhero No. 2 (694 acres) was

awarded to four individuals and the next day purchased by the storekeeper.224

On 20 November 1877, Judge Monro at Whangarei again gave effect to an out-of-court

arrangement that led to a few individuals selling the land. He was informed by Eru

Nehua that the Te Taheke block at Ngunguru was the subject of great dispute. However,

Nehua stated that an arrangement had been reached that just two individuals, namely,

Horomona Kaikou of Ngatitu and Hohepa Mahanga of Waiariki, who were apparently

representatives of the disputing tribes, should be placed on the memorial of ownership.

Presumably, Crown purchase agents had been involved in this arrangement. Monro duly

awarded title to the two individuals, who sold the 3,810 acre block to the Crown the

following day.225

223 Berghan, A39(c), p 374 224 Berghan, A39(g), pp 363-364 225 Rigby, A56, Appendix A, p 7; Berghan, A39(g), p 128 which provides a different date for the purchase.

2.6.4. Herd’s Point, Hokianga, June 1875 The hearing at Herd’s Point in Hokianga between 31 May and 24 June 1875 illustrate

the importance of this interplay between Crown purchasing agents, a small number of

Maori applicants (and land-sellers), and the Native Land Court.226

Attended by

Brissenden and presided over by Judge Monro, the hearings saw a series of blocks

awarded to a few individuals. Brissenden (with his assistant Nelson) had already made

advance payments or entered into pre-hearing negotiations on a number of these

blocks. During the course of the hearings, the Crown agents arranged to buy a number

of other areas. In the days following the title awards, Brissenden, Nelson, and the

awardees repeatedly returned to the Court to complete the transactions with Judge

Monro serving as witness. Within a few days, the Crown had purchased 19 blocks

containing 65,514 acres.

The titling and purchase of Pakanae No. 1 and Pakanae No. 3 that took place during

these hearings has already been discussed. Omahuta No. 1 (1,722 acres) and No. 2

(6,048 acres) were also titled and purchased at this time. According to Judge Maning,

the Omahuta block had long been contested by two tribal groups, including one led by

Hone Mohi Tawhai. In 1874, Brissenden made a series of advance payments, including

to Tawhai, which worsened the dispute. Given the volatile situation, Maning was

reluctant to allow the block to be heard by the Court. Neither Judge Monro nor Crown

purchase agent Brissenden showed the same caution.227

It would appear that Tawhai's opponents did not attend the hearing on 12 June 1875.

Tawhai presented much of the evidence, which revolved around tribal rather than

individual rights to the land. Although Tawhai and others stated that four related hapu

held rights to the Omahuta block, Monro accepted Tawhai's suggestion that only four

individuals, including himself, should be named on the memorial of ownership. The

block was split into two, with Brissenden completing the purchases days later.228

226 For another example, see Harris, E32, pp 207-219 on the Unuhia (4,395 acres), Omataroa (3,220 acres) and Ohakiri (43 acres) blocks in the Whangaroa sub-region. The Crown made advance payments on these three blocks. They were then awarded in 1875 and 1876 to a single or a few owners, including recipients of the advance payments, before being quickly sold to the Crown.

227 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 691-692 228 Berghan, A39(e), pp 61-63; Rigby, A56, Appendix A, p 3

108

The Otangaroa blocks in Panguru, Hokianga (not to be confused with the blocks of the

same name in Whangaroa) were also titled and purchased during this hearing.

Brissenden had made advance payments in 1874 on these lands, including to Remi Te

Tai (also known as Remi Tetai Papahia). On 17 June 1875, Remi told the Court that it

had been arranged that Otangaroa should be split into four sections. After some brief

evidence, the Court adjourned to allow further informal discussions. Presumably,

Brissenden played a full part in these discussions. After a short break, Remi Te Tai

returned with a list of owners. He told Court that Otangaroa No. 1 (1,257 acres) should

be awarded to three people, Otangaroa No. 2 (3,284 acres) to eight, and Otangaroa No. 3

(4,876 acres) to Wiremu Te Tai and seven others. Wiremu Puriri, with corroboration

from several witnesses, informed the Court that four different hapu held rights to

Otangaroa No. 4 (3,296 acres) but that it was agreed he should be granted the land

alone.229

Monro did not make any further investigation or show any obvious concern about

granting to a few individuals land that he had been told belonged to many others.

Rather, he issued the memorials of ownership as the applicants wished. The following

day, Brissenden and the awardees were back in the Court to complete the purchase of

all four parts of Otangaroa.230

Brief out-of-court discussions, not in-depth in-court investigations, were also the key to

the titling and sale of Punakitere (7,557 acres). During these hearings, Judge Monro

awarded this block to a single individual even though he was informed that tribes and

other individuals claimed rights to the land. The Crown had made advance payments on

this block, which Pehikura claimed on account of 'Ngatimoerewa'. He told the Court it

should be awarded to he and 11 others, while Hori Karaka Tawiti argued that

'Ngatipakau', 'Ngatihua', and 'Mahurehure' also held rights to the land. Tawiti then

successfully requested a half-hour adjournment, after which he told the Court that it had

been arranged that he would be the sole name on the memorial of ownership. Judge

Monro, after hearing some assent about this arrangement, duly awarded the land to

229 Acreages based on Rigby, A56, Appendix A, pp 3-4. Berghan, A39(e), pp 195-197 gives different figures. 230 Berghan, A39(e), p 197; Rigby, A56, Appendix A, pp 3-4

109

Tawiti. Tawiti was back in the Court 10 days later to receive payment and complete the

sale to the Crown.231

Manganuiowae, another long-disputed piece of Hokianga land, was also quickly titled

during this Court hearing with Crown purchase immediately following. According to

Judge Maning, the land belonged 'to every native north of Auckland almost' and had

been contested, sometimes violently, for many years.232 Maning was alarmed by Crown

purchase negotiations and efforts to facilitate a Court hearing over the land in 1874.

Instead, title determination took place at Herd's Point in front of Judge Monro on 23

June 1875. The hearing was a complex case involving different hapu claiming rights to

the land. Monro ruled that four hapu held rights over the land and adjourned to allow

discussions about who should be included on the memorial of ownership. It would seem

that this is when Brissenden became involved. Although the claimants had initially

decided to partition the land into four areas, apparently to utilise it themselves,

Brissenden convinced them to sell the entire block to the Crown. After the adjournment,

the claimants told the Court that they had decided to sell the land, and for ease of sale,

one representative from each group should be named on the title. Those listed would

receive the money and divide it among their wider groups. Monro agreed to issue title

to the four nominees who, the next day, duly sold the block to the Crown.233

Brissenden had in 1874 made two advance payments regarding what would become the

Kauaeoruruwahine block (9,287 acres) of Hokianga. However, it would seem that a

different group appeared at Herd's Point to claim the land in front of Monro on 2 June

1875. After a disputed case, Monro ruled that the block should be divided into three

sections to be owned by three different groups of individuals. Brissenden immediately

secured agreement to buy all three blocks. To speed the purchase, he did not pay all the

awardees, but just one representative of each group.234

231 Berghan, A39(f), pp 361-362; Rigby, A56, Appendix A, p 5. Around this time, other blocks in the Punakitere area were awarded to sole or a few owners and immediately sold to the Crown. For example, Brissenden made advance payments for Te Arawhatototara (2,019 acres) in 1874 to a group led by Pehikura. The Court hearing at Ohaeawai initially saw tribal dispute over the land but Judge Monro agreed to out-of-Court arrangements and on 7 April 1875 awarded it to Pehikura and one other. They sold the block to the Crown the following day. See Berghan, A39(c), pp 27-35.

232 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 692 233 Berghan, A39(d), pp 110-11; Rigby, A56, Appendix A, p 1 234 Berghan, A39(c), pp 332-333; Rigby, A56, Appendix A, p 1

110

During the course of this hearing at Herd's Point, the Crown acquired 64,514 acres. Not

surprisingly, Brissenden was delighted with Judge Monro’s performance. A week after

the hearings were completed, the Crown purchase agent reported to McLean about how

well things had gone at Herd's Point and at other recent hearings at Ohaeawai and

Mangonui. He noted that Monro had, without fail, awarded title to those who had

received advances or whom the Crown wished to have placed on the title.235 In 'every

instance', Monro had shown Brissenden 'the greatest consideration' and 'carefully and

patiently investigated the numerous difficult and tedious cases brought before him.

None failed to pass except for those for which the survey and maps were not

completed'.236

2.6.5. Judge Maning's Protests Brissenden was not the only Crown purchase agent delighted with his interaction with

the Native Land Court. Preece was similarly enthusiastic. He completed many of

Brissenden's transactions in Hokianga and elsewhere after Brissenden was fired for

misconduct. He reported in August 1875 that he had never 'experienced less difficulty'

in completing land purchases. He had acquired lands scattered throughout 50 blocks

and in all these cases the Court had only once declined to award title to an applicant

who had received advances.239

The Court's facilitation of land alienation leads Armstrong and Subasic to raise the

possibility that some judges colluded with Crown purchase officers. They quote Judge

Maning's opinion that Monro was 'led by the nose ' by purchase agents and had:

wittingly and deliberately ignored the rights of nine-tenths of the owners of almost every case he had to do with and left men at the mercy of a few Rangatira sharks and the consequence is that as the right owners have not signed the transfers or being named in the grants the Government have not got a single valid title in the North, it is fortunate the natives do not know it, but there will be a second Hawkes Bay affair, with the difference that the natives will be right. I warned Munro [sic] when he was here of the consequences of what he was doing but he kept on.240

Maning launched a sustained but ultimately unsuccessful protest against the Court's

willingness in the north to issue title to a few individuals who had received advance

payments and planned to sell the land to the Crown. The following account is based on

the work of Armstrong and Subasic, who describe Maning as an enthusiastic supporter

and facilitator of the Crown's land purchasing programme. Nonetheless, the judge was

dismayed that the Court's authority and the requirements of the Native Land Act 1873

were being undermined by Crown purchase agents and Maori land-sellers dictating who

should be named on the title. He believed numerous rightful owners were being

dispossessed, and that this rushed and unjust title and land purchasing process would

inevitably provoke Maori resistance.241

239 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 703 240 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 704. It would seem that this Maning statement dates from late 1875. 241 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 706

112

Judge Maning was long concerned with the tactics of Crown purchase agents in Te Raki

and how this could affect the Court process. In June 1874, he reported that agents in the

area were 'giving fist fulls of money to anyone who tells them he is an owner of a piece

of land and have put the natives in a fine commotion thereby’.242 In August 1874, fearing

that the Crown's careless use of advance payments would lead to disputes and chaos in

the Court, he refused to authorise the surveys of the Omahuta and Manganuiowae

blocks in Hokianga.243

the same complaints are coming in to me every day, natives from all quarters saying lands are bought without waiting till the owners are ascertained by the Court ... I see every prospect of a great deal of difficulty.

In early 1875, he reported that he had received around 60

complaints from Maori about advance payments. Nonetheless, the payments were

continuing and Maning believed that they would soon lead to a plethora of problematic

Court hearings:

244

In January 1875, Maning informed Native Minister McLean that he would 'not make the

advance of Government money any consideration at all in any decision I may come

to’.245 Armstrong and Subasic suggest that, in response, McLean and Chief Judge Fenton

assigned a series of cases in Hokianga in which advances had been paid to the more

pliable Judge Monro.246

Maning, as we have seen, was scathing over Monro's subsequent

willingness to comply with the wishes of Maori sellers and Crown purchase agents.

At a hearing at Ahipara in October 1875, Maning clashed with Crown purchase agent

Preece over Preece's attempts to influence the titling process to facilitate land sales. The

direct cause of their dispute was the Orowhana block just to the north of the Te Raki

inquiry district. Nonetheless, this clash is relevant to this report as it involves the same

issues and people that were involved in Court hearings in Te Raki.

As has been shown, the Court was often requested and agreed to award title to a few

individuals who, it was claimed, had been selected by a wider group of right holders.

242 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 690 243 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 691-692 244 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 693 245 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 708 246 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 706

113

These 'representatives' then commonly sold the land to the Crown. But during the

Orowhana title determination, Judge Maning threw a spanner in the works. He was told

by claimants, who had received advance payments and were planning to sell the block

to the Crown, that there were 'very considerable numbers' of other owners but title

should be restricted to just 10 owners, including themselves.247 Maning refused,

insisting that he was obliged under the Native Land Act 1873 to list all the owners on

the memorial of ownership. Crown purchase agent Preece and the claimants then

argued with Maning, declaring that it was legal and common to name a small amount of

owners in such cases. Preece urged the judge to name just 10 owners for Orowhana as

this would 'facilitate the purchase of the land by the Government, as some of the other

parties if named might decline to sell their shares, or require an exorbitant payment for

them’.248

Maning, with the backing of district officer Webster, who was present in the Court,

reiterated that the intention of the 1873 Native Land Act was:

to put it out of the power of Native Chiefs or others to alienate the lands of the commoners of their tribes, or defraud them of the proceeds of the sales; things which have been reported to have been done very frequently of late.249

Backed by Preece, the claimants repeatedly refused the judge's demand that they put

forward lists containing all those with rights to Orowhana. Maning therefore adjourned

the hearing. He then threatened to resign, warning that '[i]nterference by [the] land

purchase department before a claim is settled will surely lead to disaster'.250 As he

explained, land purchase agents regularly pressed him to award lands to those they had

identified and paid, and in so doing, dispossess ‘hundreds of owners of land and only

recognise such persons as choose to sell it to them’.251

say I can ignore the rights of any number of owners and name only the chiefs who wish to sell and who are in this way plundering the people [but] my reading of the law is that I cannot leave out any of the owners.

In this case, Preece and those

who had received advances:

252


248 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 709 249 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 709 250 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 708 251 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 710 252 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 708

114

The Crown's purchase agents were alarmed at any prospect that the Court would

discontinue the practice of awarding title to selected land sellers. In November 1875,

Preece set out his views in a letter to Native Minister McLean. He reiterated his position

that naming a small number of owners who had been appointed in informal, voluntary

arrangements was legal under section 46 of the 1873 Native Land Act. Moreover, it was

a 'far better' and just policy for the Crown to conduct negotiations with a few

representatives who could arrange the sale and distribute the money.253

It would seem that Maning, rather than Preece, was right about the law. In November

1875, the issue was submitted to the Solicitor General who confirmed Maning's opinion

that section 46 did not allow the Court to recognise arrangements such as Orowhana

and award land to a few 'representative' owners.254 Nonetheless, the practice continued

and it led to numerous land sales in the area. Indeed, even Maning's specific battle over

Orowhana was lost. In 1877, it along with the Epakauri and Tauroa blocks (all in the

Muriwhenua inquiry district), came before the Court again. Maning had resigned by this

point, and the case was heard by Judge Monro. The Crown had paid advances on all

three blocks and the Court was well aware that large groups claimed and disputed

rights to these lands. But, as one of the claimants informed the Court, an 'arrangement'

had been reached among the disputants. The Court decided to recognise this

arrangement. Only four names were placed on each memorial of ownership. These

individuals then sold the three blocks to the Crown.255

Despite Maning's protests, the Court in Te Raki often made little effort to include all

right holders in the title, especially when the land was sought by the Crown. Instead, it

frequently awarded title to a few Maori who were in land negotiations with the Crown,

and ignored the many others who possibly held interests to the land. In doing so, the

253 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 711-712 254 See Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 714 and The Maori Land Legislation Manual, CFRT, updated 1995, Section 46, Native Land Act 1873. Expert legal analysis of this issue might be useful. To my untrained eye, it would seem that the Solicitor-General believed that section 46 allowed the Court to formalise only voluntary arrangements between claimants and cross-claimants. It did not allow, or so a discussion on this issue by Armstrong and Subasic would seem to indicate, the Court to award title to an individual or individuals because they claimed that the wider community of owners had agreed to this. 255 Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, pp 89-90

115

Court played a vital role in facilitating the Crown's land-purchase programme in Te

Raki.

2.7. Reserves and the Court's Protective Responsibilities Between 1875 and 1880, the Native Land Court presided over and encouraged land

purchase in Te Raki. We now consider whether the Court at least provided some

protection for Te Raki Maori against excessive or fraudulent land loss. Potentially, the

Court could have played a significant role in this context. The Native Land Act 1873

reiterated and strengthened the Court's pre-existing responsibilities to ensure that

Maori retained sufficient land for their immediate and future needs. The Act's preamble

stated the importance:

of assuring to the Natives without any doubt whatever a sufficiency of their land for their support and maintenance, as also for the purpose of establishing endowments for their permanent general benefit from out of such land.256

Under section 24 of the Act, the district officer was required to set aside 'a sufficient

quantity of land in as many blocks as he shall deem necessary for the benefit of the

Natives of the district.' The reserves were to be passed through the Court and rendered

inalienable.257

The Court would then determine all the Maori who should have rights in

the reserve and name them on the memorial of ownership before declaring the land

inalienable except with the consent of the Governor in Council.

The reserves would be deemed insufficient if they did not represent a minimum of 50

acres for every man, woman, and child. It has been argued that the requirement of

reserves of 50 acres per person was fundamentally flawed in that it was based on

individual rather than communal needs.258 Moreover, Armstrong and Subasic suggest

that this amount of land would have reduced Te Raki Maori to 'subsistence farmers'

rather than equipped them to achieve development and equality.259

256 Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, p 105 257 Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, p 105; Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 772 258 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 769, 772; Waitangi Tribunal, He Maunga Rongo: Report on Central North Island Claims, stage 1, part 1, vol 2, p 631 259 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 769

116

These and other legitimate criticisms should not obscure the Act's protective potential.

If generously and rigorously implemented, the Act would have certainly provided Te

Raki Maori with more protection than they eventually received. The Act set no upper

limit for the size of reserves, with the 50 acres per person proviso a minimum only. The

requirement that the district officer should select the reserves 'with the concurrence of

interested Natives' potentially opened the way for Maori input into the crucial question

of the location and type of land to be reserved. Finally, the Act appeared to envisage

communal or customary rather than individualised reserves. Although individual

owners were to be named, the Court was instructed to set aside reserves that were to be

held by Maori 'in accordance with Native custom and usage’.260

The Native Land Act 1873 therefore appeared to suggest something more valuable than

a few areas excluded from land sales for the maintenance of the vendors. Rather, it

seemed to require the creation of inalienable, customarily held, but legally recognised

reserves for 'the benefit of the Natives of the district’. The Court was instructed to

investigate and protect the interests of Te Raki Maori, and to recognise that Te Raki

communities had a vital interest in maintaining a permanent and economically viable

estate. The Act implicitly acknowledged that excessive land sales did not just affect

those – typically a few individuals – who were named on a memorial of ownership and

sold the land; they affected Te Raki Maori as a whole.

In practice, the reserve provisions of the 1873 Act appear to have been widely ignored

in Te Raki during this period. Armstrong and Subasic comment that district officers and

Native Land Court judges were 'notorious' for paying little attention to the reserve

requirements under the legislation.261

During this research no evidence was found to

suggest that in-depth inquiries into the reserve needs of Te Raki Maori were carried out.

The issue seems to have been seldom raised during the title investigations of this

period, even when the blocks in question were large and destined to be sold to the

Crown.

260 The Maori Land Legislation Manual, CFRT, updated 1995, Native Land Act 1873, s 46, p 74; Williams, Te Kooti Tango Whenua, p 241 261 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 772, 774

117

Setting aside significant reserves, as apparently envisioned by the Native Land Act 1873,

would have required much effort and investigation by officials both inside and outside

the Court system. With the Court generally reluctant to interfere with or impede the

Crown's land purchasing ambitions in Te Raki, no such effort was made.

This was despite the Court's awareness of the need for protective mechanisms to be put

in place. In July 1876, Judge Maning wrote to Chief Judge Fenton that the 'present

inclination of the natives in the Northern District is to divest themselves of every acre of

land for which they can obtain money'.262 Land sales were progressing rapidly and

district officers were not establishing the required reserves. Maning reported that, if

protective steps were not soon taken, many Maori would become landless. He stated

that more information was needed on the amount of land remaining in northern Maori

ownership, but he doubted it was enough for reserves of 50 acres per head.263

Despite this warning, no significant steps were taken and land purchasing continued.

Maning himself was generally hostile to measures designed to protect Maori from

landlessness and, according to Armstrong and Subasic, believed that Maori should not

possess significant amounts of land as it encouraged their indolence and profligacy.264

There is no evidence that he or other Court officials took a major role in investigating

the need for reserves.

The available evidence suggests that no customary reserves as envisaged by the 1873

legislation were established in Te Raki, while only a very limited amount of land was

excluded or reserved from Crown purchases after 1865. Rigby records 27 such areas

created in purchases finalised between 1866 and 1900, collectively totalling just 5,578

acres. These reserves were less than 1 percent of the 588,707 acres of land that the

Crown acquired in Te Raki during this period.265

The research for this inquiry provides little information on the legal status of these

reserves or whether they proved to be a significant resource, economically and 262 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 773 263 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 772-774 264 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 772-774 265 Rigby, A56, p 2

118

otherwise, for local Maori. My assumption is that these reserves were lands owned by a

few individual Maori, often including those who had been involved in the earlier sale of

the parent block.

Even these areas were not safe from the Crown's purchasers. In 1876, the Crown

acquired the Ngatahuna reserve of 882 acres in the Whangarei sub-region. It had been

created after the Crown's purchase of the 26,810-acre Otonga No. 1 block. Three

reserves were set aside during the Crown's 1875 purchase of the 2,716-acre Whataipu

block in Hokianga. The Crown acquired two of these reserves in 1877: the 417-acre Te

Karu reserve and the 171-acre Waimahutahuta reserve.266 In 1880, the Crown

purchased almost all of the Maroparea reserve (250 acres) created out of the Punakitere

purchase in the Hokianga sub-region.267

2.8. Alienation Restrictions, and Protections against Fraudulent

Transactions Alienation restrictions were also ineffective in protecting Maori land in Te Raki during

this period. Blocks titled under the Native Land Act 1873 were automatically restricted

from all alienation except for a lease of no longer than 21 years. But, as David Williams

writes, this provision was 'easily circumvented'.268 Section 49 of the same Act allowed

land to be sold if all the owners agreed. As seen above, this unanimity was easy to

achieve in Te Raki where the Court routinely issued title to a single owner or a few

individual Maori who had already received advance payments and were planning to sell

the block. Moreover, if the owners did not unanimously agree to sell, the Court could

apportion the block into subdivisions representing the interests of those 'desirous to

sell' and 'dissentients'.269

There was less cause to use this provision to sub-divide in Te

Raki.

266 Rigby, A56, Appendix A and Appendix B. Note that a two-acre wahi tapu was excluded from the purchase of the Waimahutahuta. 267 Rigby, A56, Appendix A, p 2 268 Williams, Te Kooti Tango Whenua, p 168. See section 48 of this Act. 269 Williams, Te Kooti Tango Whenua, p 168

119

The Otangaroa block on the southern part of the Whangaroa Harbour (which should not

be confused with the block of the same name in Hokianga) was an example of how

partitions were used to overcome alienation restrictions. Alexandra Horsley writes that

the Crown had made advance payments on this block that drew it into the Court system.

But the Court awarded the block to more owners (34) than common during this period.

While the Crown abandoned its purchasing efforts, timber merchant George Holdship

did not. After unsuccessful efforts to lease the whole block, he entered into an

arrangement to buy the interests of 17 of the owners. These owners went to the Court

in 1877 and had the block subdivided into two partitions of 3,439 acres each. Otangaroa

No. 1 was allocated to 17 opponents of the sale and Otangaroa No. 2 (3,439 acres) was

allocated to the 17 prospective sellers. Holdship completed the purchase of Otangaroa

No. 2 in the following year.270

The mechanisms designed to protect Maori against alienations of questionable probity

also failed to stem the tide of purchasing during this period. The Native Land Frauds

Prevention Act 1870 appointed trust commissioners to protect Maori against sales

characterised by 'frauds and abuse' and to ensure that Maori vendors had sufficient

lands for their support. They were to invalidate any transaction that was 'contrary to

equity and good conscience', contravened any trusts, or had been paid through liquor or

arms. The commissioners were to investigate every transaction involving Maori land

and to endorse or disallow every deed of sale. 271

On the face of it, the trust commissioner could have been highly active in Te Raki

investigating the many transactions that took place with little transparency or

documentation. As discussed, there were suggestions that Crown purchase agents

during the Pakanae purchase used dubious practices such as 'treating' or indebting

Maori to encourage sales.272 There were also allegations, denied by Crown purchase

agent Preece, that land in the area was paid for with orders from publicans and

storekeepers.273

270 Horsley, A57, pp 56, 60, 65-66, 88-90 271 Maori Land Legislation, CFRT, updated 1995, p 62, Williams, Te Kooti Tango Whenua, p 213 272 Clarkson, A58, p 54 273 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 703-704

120

However, Williams has argued that that the legislation covering trust commissioners

was largely 'window-dressing' and that the commissioners, rather than acting 'in a

thoroughgoing, conscientious manner', endorsed transactions as a matter of course

after few inquiries. 274 Armstrong and Subasic argue that this was the case in Te Raki. T

M Haultain, the trust commissioner for the Auckland District (including Te Raki),

endorsed almost all transactions, except for a few that were in breach of alienation

restrictions.275

The Court was also instructed, under the 1873 Native Land Act, to inquire into the

probity of land purchases from Maori. It was to ascertain that the owners wished to sell

the land, that transactions were in good faith, that the sale transfer was signed by all

owners, and to explain the effect of sale to all the owners. There are only sporadic

references to the Court carrying out these duties and nothing to suggest that it carried

out in-depth inquiries or posed any significant challenges to the finalisation of Crown

purchases. There are occasional minute book references to the Crown 'confirming' a

transaction but no suggestion of what was entailed in this confirmation.276

Overall, the Court system seems to have done little to protect Te Raki Maori against

excessive alienation during this period. Its responsibility to provide Maori with

sufficient reserves, its ability to prohibit or restrict land purchases, and its duties to

investigate and protect Maori against inequitable transactions were seemingly

overwhelmed by the tidal wave of Crown purchasing.

The failure of the Crown’s protective responsibilities is shown most obviously by the

amount of land purchased between 1875 and 1880. These few years, more than any

other period, laid the foundations for Maori landlessness and shortage of land

throughout Te Raki. The Court facilitated rather than protected Maori against this level

of land loss.

3. Chapter Three: The Native Land Court Entrenched

and Resisted, 1881–1889 3.1. Introduction This chapter covers the rise of Maori resistance to the Native Land Court in the 1880s.

Te Raki Maori, who had long complained about specific aspects of the Court process,

were by this time opposed to the Court as a whole and wanted it abolished. This was a

reaction to the large-scale Court hearings and unprecedented levels of land loss of the

mid and late 1870s. Local communities had lost much of their traditional tribal estate

while their economic strength and future had been fundamentally compromised. The

Court was widely considered to be a major factor in these disastrous developments.

During the 1880s, resistance to the Court took many forms, including political protest

and the use of alternative, Maori-controlled committees and runanga to adjudicate on

land issues. A Rohe Potae of customary land was established around Motatau in which

Court hearings and land sales were prohibited. This resistance – and a decline in Crown

purchasing – led to a sharp decline in the amount of Maori land that was brought before

the Court for title determination.

Nonetheless, by the 1880s, the Court was an entrenched feature of Maori life in the

district and even its staunchest opponents were unable to avoid the institution

altogether. It remained the only way in which local Maori could gain legal title over their

land. Court hearings were easy for individuals to facilitate and dangerous for others to

avoid as non-participation was to risk dispossession. Protracted hearings during this

period saddled applicants and cross-claimants with large costs and debts that

contributed to further land alienations. Moreover, the Court was increasingly sub-

dividing and fragmenting the diminished amount of land that remained in Maori

ownership. In short, the Crown's tenurial system continued to have a far-reaching and

multi-faceted impact on Maori life and land in Te Raki.

3.2. The Native Land Court Slowly Entrenched By 1881, when this chapter begins, the Crown's tenurial system had largely triumphed

in Te Raki. The peak years of title determinations were over. Almost 70 percent of the

122

customary Maori land that remained in 1865 (excluding the land for which the date of

title determination is not known) had already passed through the Court and been

allocated to individual owners. Much of this land, as we have seen, had been purchased

by the Crown.

In the following years, the Court's influence in Te Raki was entrenched. Title

determinations continued throughout the rest of the nineteenth century albeit at a

diminished rate. Court titling increased somewhat during the early twentieth century

but this was a mopping up of hitherto isolated or previously resistant areas, and was not

comparable to the rapid progress of the Court during its initial 15 years in Te Raki.

A key cause of this slowdown, apart from the fact that there was comparatively little

land left outside of the Court system, was the end of the Crown's great purchasing drive

of the mid-1870s. With so much land already acquired (much of it unoccupied and

unutilised by the Crown) there was little new purchasing in Te Raki in the 1880s. This

was part of a nationwide decline in Crown purchasing, caused in part by the economic

downswing.277

Table 23: Number of known blocks and acres titled compared with the number of known acres purchased by the Crown, Te Raki inquiry district, 1881–1889

There were a few Crown purchases in Te Raki during this decade but

these were mainly the completion of transactions that began in the 1870s, most notably

involving the Pakiri and Puhipuhi blocks.

The decline in Crown purchasing during the 1880s, particularly after 1883 – and the

increasing resistance of Maori to the Court – slowed down, but did not completely halt,

title determinations in Te Raki. Maori still sought title in order to sell land to either the

Crown or to private purchasers. Sometimes, the opposite motivation was at work, with

Te Raki Maori seeking legal ownership over land so that it could be protected from sale.

The scramble for title that was so powerful in the mid-1870s continued on, to some

extent at least, into the 1880s. Disputes between tribes, leaders, and individuals over

land continued to result in title determinations. Even determined opponents of the

Court – of which there were increasing numbers during this period – could not

completely escape its clutches. The Court's monopoly powers over the legal

determination of land rights, and the ease in which the titling process could be

facilitated, meant that it remained in the 1880s a vital presence in Te Raki Maori life.

The first 15 years of the Court in Te Raki had severely weakened collective, customary

title over land. Despite significant Maori resistance, the Native Land Court was in Te

Raki to stay.

Graph 27: Number of known acres titled by the Native Land Court in the 1880–1889 period, Te Raki inquiry district

Between 1881 and 1889, title was issued to an estimated 62,132 acres of Maori land in

Te Raki. Excluding land for which the date of title determination is not known, this

represents 7.5 percent of all Maori-owned land that remained in 1865. It meant that just

22.7 percent of Maori-owned land in 1865 remained under customary tenure in 1890.

The number of new title hearings also slowed but did not cease. Between 1881 and

1889, the Native Land Court created 75 new blocks with individual owners. This too

was a noticeable drop from the period between 1865 and 1874 when the Court

established 469 new blocks, and the period between 1875 and 1880, when over 200

title determinations were completed.

As with previous periods, most of the blocks created were small but much of the land

was grouped together in a few large blocks. Of the 75 new blocks created during

between 1881 and 1889, 31 blocks were less than 100 acres and 47 blocks were 500

acres or less. But only 1,068 acres of land was in blocks of 100 acres or less and just

4,455 acres was in blocks of 500 acres or less. On the other hand, the three new blocks

of over 5,000 acres that were titled during this period collectively contained 21,915

acres.

land – the most of any sub-region during this period – came under the Court system,

with 23 new blocks created. By the end of 1889, the Court system had made major

inroads in Hokianga with 75.0 percent of all the known Native Land Court blocks in this

sub-region titled.

Whangarei, the largest sub-region, had also been transformed by the Court system. By

1889, 82.3 percent of customary land had been legally titled. In the 1880s, the Court

created 27 new blocks in this sub-region, incorporating 14,759 acres of land. Although

this was a significant amount of land, it represented a huge drop in the amount of Court

activity in the Whangarei district compared with earlier periods.

Of the three large sub-regions, the Court's progress was slowest in the Bay of Islands.

From 1881 to 1889, just 9,726 acres of Bay of Islands land, grouped in 20 new blocks,

came under the Court system of title. This meant that by the beginning of 1890, 72.5

percent of known customary land in 1865 had gone before the Court. This

comparatively slow rate of titling was, at least in part, the result of Maori resistance to

the Court in the area. As shall be discussed, Maihi Paraone Kawiti had established a

Rohe Potae that banned Court activity in a sizeable area in the inland Bay of Islands and

Whangarei area.

Despite anti-Court activities in Whangaroa, title determinations continued to eat away

at the little amount of customary Maori land. From 1881 to 1889, there were just three

new title determinations in this sub-region but they covered 9,246 acres. Legal title had

now been issued to an estimated 73.0 percent of the Whangaroa customary land that

remained in 1865.

In 1886, the protracted title determination for Hauturu – Little Barrier Island – (6,960

acres) was completed. This extinguished the last substantial portion of customary title

in the Mahurangi and Gulf Islands sub-region.

3.3. The Court and Private Purchasing during the 1880s The scale of Native Land Court hearings declined considerably in Te Raki in the 1880s

as Maori resistance to the Court grew and the Crown's interest in land purchasing

diminished. Nevertheless, the Court continued to be inextricably linked to Maori land

loss. Sales, both to the Crown and to private purchasers, remained a key reason for –

and a major result of – Maori interaction with the Court.

In many ways, the Court's involvement with the land sale process was essentially

unchanged. Although far less land was going through the Court – and being sold – than

during the frantic period of the mid-1870s, the title investigation process did not

become more obviously careful or protective. For those blocks in which sale loomed and

open opposition was absent, it would seem that title determinations remained brief and

perfunctory. Even after a partial (but largely unenforced) ban on advance payments, at

least some land purchases continued to be arranged before title had been issued, with

the Court quickly awarding land to a single or few applicants who completed the sale

even when it was explicitly told that many others held rights in the land.278

In other

cases, Maori seem to have gained title and then immediately looked for, or were

approached by, purchasers.

The 1,314–acre Kahakaharoa block in the Whangarei district was an example of a block

titled and quickly sold during this period. On 3 February 1882, Haki Whangawhanga

told Judge Symonds that the land belonged to Ngati Hau and that 'a great number of

names' should be placed on the certificate. However, for unstated reasons – perhaps

because he had been approached by purchasers – Whangawhanga decided that it would

be better that he and just one other individual should be awarded the block. The Court

concurred. Shortly afterwards, it was reported that they were in negotiations to sell the

block, which was purchased by the Union Steam Saw Moving Sash and Door Company

Ltd.279

Just before this hearing Haki Whangawhanga and Eru Nehua had arranged to lease land

to the Ngunguru Coal Company. Once again, the Court was willing to award them land

despite it being clear that they were acting as representatives for Ngati Hau and that

many others had potential interest in the land. Nehua told the Court in February 1882

that Ngati Hau ran horses and pigs on the 1,190-acre Whakapae block and that Ngati

Hau and Waiariki dug gum on it. As David Armstrong puts it, it was obvious that others

held rights in the land. But upon Nehua’s request, the Court awarded the 594-acre 278 In 1883, it became a criminal offence to negotiate with Maori over land purchases until 40 days after title was ascertained. However, the law was rarely enforced for private purchasers while the Crown was exempt from this law altogether. Williams, Te Kooti Tango Whenua, Appendix 4 279 David Armstrong, ‘Ngāti Hau gap filing research’, Wai 1040, P1, p 31. It seems that Whangawhanga requested the Court to award the title to himself and one other although the evidence is not explicit about this.

131

Whakapae No. 1 block to himself and Whangawhanga. They then formally leased it to

the coal company.280 In February 1882, Nehua appeared again in front of the Court to

state that it 'had been arranged' that he should gain sole title over the 19-acre Rotomate

block. He subsequently sold the block to a private purchaser.281

In this and other ways, the titling process for 'sale' blocks was reminiscent of equivalent

hearings in earlier periods. Often, only a few applicants appeared before the Court, with

limited or no presence from counter-claimants. As with earlier periods, it is not clear

what caused the relative lack of any debate or dispute among Maori during some title

determinations. As shown, it is clear that pre-hearing arrangements and selections of

representative owners continued to be carried out. But, it is also likely that, in some

cases, potential right holders were absent from the hearings and apparently uninvolved

in pre-hearing agreements. And, as shown in the cases discussed below, the Court

usually did not closely consider the rights of those absent from the courtroom or award

them title.

Long and complex communal disputes over rights to land and resources continued to be

a feature of Maori life in Te Raki, but this was not always obvious in the way that the

Court decided on title.282

In many cases, after considering what appears to have been a

limited amount of evidence, the Court confirmed title to the main applicants, who

shortly afterwards sold the land. There was sometimes implicit or explicit evidence that

the applicants were claiming on behalf of wider groups and, as we have mentioned, it

would seem that there continued to be plenty of out-of-court title arrangements among

applicants, their supporters, and possibly purchasers. Despite this, the Court was

generally willing, especially if no opposition was voiced during the hearings, to award

absolute title to a single or a small group of applicants.

What did change during this period, apart from the amount of land being sold, was who

was buying it. With the decline of Crown purchasing, its agents exerted a less overt

presence in the Court process. As we shall see, the Crown was involved in the title

280 Armstrong, P1, pp 31-32 281 Armstrong, P1, p 37 282 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1036

132

determination processes for Hauturu and Pakanae, which it was in the process of

purchasing, raising possible questions regarding the Court's independence. But aside

from these cases the Crown was largely uninterested in buying the land that was titled

in Te Raki during the 1880s.

More commonly, Maori went to the Court in order to facilitate sales and leases to

private purchasers. No clear evidence has been sighted on how much land titled in this

period was sold or leased to Pakeha individuals and businesses.283

Nonetheless, the

following examples suggest it was a significant reason why Maori in Te Raki used the

Court in the 1880s.

On 6 February 1882, Hepi Moanariki and 7 others were awarded title to the 610-acre

Maungarei block in the Whangarei district. The following year, they sold it to a

European for £400.284 On 7 November 1883, the Court issued title to the 266-acre

Poroti block. From 1884, the local European entrepreneur Samuel Rawnsley and his

family members began to purchase most of this block.285 In 1888, Rawnsley's dealings

in nearby Poroti lands would provoke fatal conflict between local tribes.286

In the mid and late 1880s, Europeans were drawn to the prospect of silver and gold in

the Puhipuhi region. While much of this region had already gone through the Court and

been purchased by the Crown, one significant area was still up for grabs. On 13

November 1885, Hiraina Paraka and one other were awarded the 1,195-acre

Taumatahinau block. Shortly afterwards, they sold it to a Whangarei miner.287

Another example of the ongoing, and sometimes complex, involvement of land sales in

the Court process involved the 233-acre Te Hape block in the Whangarei district. There

is only limited and unclear evidence regarding this hearing but my understanding is that

the Court's eventual award revolved around a pre-title land sale between local Maori

283 The SOPAC data calculated that 16,141 acres was purchased by private buyers in Te Raki between 1875 and 1884, with a further 2,010.2 acres alienated in this way between 1885 and 1894 (Wai 1840, #1.3.2(c)) 284 Berghan, A39(d), p 248 285 Berghan, A39 (f), pp 251-252 286 Alexander, A7, p 136 287 Berghan, A39(g), pp 277-278; Derby, A61, p 229

133

and a Pakeha purchaser. The Court was initially unaware of this transaction and was

poised to award the land to the main applicant. On 3 February 1882, Renata Manihera

and others claimed the block and provided a list of owners. Manihera did not mention

any land sale. Before Judge Symonds could award the land to those on this list, Resident

Magistrate James Clendon came forward. He gave evidence that a European had

arranged to buy the block. It is not clear whether Manihera was involved in and

supported this pre-title transaction. However, another local Maori, named Puketawa,

was certainly involved. He told the Court that he and 'the entire hapu' had agreed to the

transaction and that £100 had been received and spent on food, shelter, and the

'scraping of the bones of Tatau’.288

Puketawa was seemingly citing this informal

transaction as evidence of his, and his hapu's rights to the blocks, but he also told the

Court that he supported and wanted to formalise this sale.

This may well have been a pressing factor in the Court's award. Despite hearing that

Puketawa’s entire hapu held rights to the land, it issued title to just a few individuals.

But which individuals would be granted the land and how would this affect the deal

with the European? Manihera did not want to complete the deal, at least not over the

whole of the block. He apparently argued that the block should be divided into two, with

some going to the European and some being awarded to himself and the others on his

list. Puketawa disagreed, evidently suggesting that the whole block should be awarded

to Maori who were willing to transfer it to the European. As Puketawa requested, the

Court decided not to split the block. Instead, it awarded it to just three individuals,

including Puketawa, as well as Manihera, possibly so that they could legally complete

the sale.289

The indebtedness of Te Raki Maori was an important element in the connection

between the Court and land sales during this period. Existing debt led Te Raki Maori to

seek Court hearings so that they could obtain a legal, transferable title and sell land to

Europeans and to the Crown. But in other cases, the Court process led to debts that

288 Berghan, A39(c), pp 86-87 289 Berghan, A39(c), pp 86-87. It should be emphasised that this is my extrapolation from a brief and difficult-to-understand piece of evidence.

134

could only be paid through sales. In some cases, such as Otaniwha, both factors were in

play.

It would seem that the initial push for the Otaniwha title determination was that Eru

Pakere needed money, which could only be achieved through land sales, to pay the

debts of one of his people who had been involved in a Supreme Court case. He

consequently applied for title over the Otaniwha block (1,206 acres) in the Whangarei

district. But the Court process was in itself costly. His survey costs and court fees were

paid for by a 'European friend', quite possibly the prospective purchaser of the land.

Pakere was awarded sole title to the land on 30 January 1885. Shortly afterwards, he

and his 'European friend', who may well have been providing the money, were in

Auckland 'to pay the debts of my people'. While there, he sent a letter to the Chief Judge

of the Native Land Court warning that many blocks were under pressure from 'certain

Pakeha-Maoris who go about robbing people who have land’. A little later, in 1887, the

sale of Otaniwha was completed.290

Many Maori in Te Raki were in debt to storekeepers and this seems to have been the

cause of a number of hearing and sales. We have seen allegations that Crown purchase

agents in the 1870s routinely encouraged Maori to fall into a debt to storekeepers that

would be paid off through sale. In 1891, a Pakeha observer stated that there was a long

history in Hokianga and elsewhere in the region of Court hearings taking place in and

around stores and public houses. The credit extended to Maori at these times was often

paid for with land.291

Debt and the need for development money for other lands drew even Maihi Paraone

Kawiti, a key opponent of Court hearings and land sales in the area, into the process. On

12 February 1885, he appeared in the Court at Waimate to claim the Honohere block

(just over 127 acres) for himself and three others. After Judge Puckey awarded them

title, the block was sold to a Kawakawa storekeeper for £140.292

290 Berghan, A39(e), pp 207-208 291 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1187 292 Berghan, A39(c), p 158

135

Similarly, Wiremu Te Parahi had previously sought to avoid the Court and to use a non-

Government sanctioned Maori committee to adjudicate on his claims to land around

Mangatawai, near Kaikohe. However, the rulings of the Committee of the Treaty of

Waitangi (Te Komiti o Te Titiri o Waitangi) had no legal status and on 3 April 1882, Te

Parahi was in Court to claim the Mangatawai block (609 acres). The Court awarded the

block to Te Parahi alone, which he then sold to an Ohaeawai storekeeper for £220.293

3.3.1. Surveying Costs Survey costs remained a major part of the court process during this period and a

significant threat to Te Raki Maori land. There is no systematic evidence on the cost of

title surveys in Te Raki inquiry district as a whole. However, there is evidence that the

need to pay for surveys in order to gain title affected the hapu, iwi, and leaders of Te

Raki in a variety of ways.

For instance, a 'European friend' paid the survey and court fees incurred by Eru Pakere

while gaining title over the Otaniwha block. Pakere, it would seem, then sold the block

to his creditor. Eru Nehua personally paid £302 for the survey of the Puhipuhi block. He

too later sold many of his interests in this block, with repayment of his survey costs part

of the arrangement.294

This practice had been common in the mid 1870s when many surveys in Te Raki were

paid for as part of the Crown purchase of the block. But non-selling Maori in Te Raki had

no easy way to pay survey costs. Often, they were unable to, complicating and delaying

the titling process. For example, the 1880 hearing into the Te Pupuke block near the

Whangaroa Harbour was adjourned because the surveyor W W Clarke had not been

paid and had refused to hand the plans over to the Court. This may have been one of the

reasons why the applicants Hare Hongi Hika and Paora Ururoa tried to remove the land

from the Court system and have a non-Crown sanctioned native committee rule on the

title. 295

293 Berghan, A39(d), pp 124-125 294 Derby, A61, p 181 295 Horsley, A57, pp 71-72

136

In April 1885, the Native Land Court ordered that the Papakauri block (1,012 acres) in

the Bay of Islands be divided into two, and each piece be awarded to more than 100

owners. However, none of the owners could guarantee payment of the necessary

surveys and so certificate of title was not issued until 1887. It would seem that the

Crown advanced the money for the survey, which then became a lien on the land. The

owners, individually and collectively, proved unable to pay. On a number of occasions,

owners approached the Crown and suggested it buy their rights to the land so as to

wipe out their personal survey debt. The Crown declined, not wanting to obtain the

shares of just a few of the owners. But the issue of the unpaid survey costs continued to

threaten Maori ownership of Papakauri. The Crown decided that purchase was the best

and only way to recover the unpaid survey debt. It began attempts to buy the shares of

all the owners, offering 2 shilling per acre less the survey liens.296

Te Raki Maori faced other court-related costs. While the costs of attending hearings, if

held nearby and brief in length, were comparatively modest, the expense of distant and

drawn-out sittings was considerable. Indeed, as the case studies below of Hauturu and

Puhipuhi suggest, battles for title could bring massive debt and lead to land sales.

3.4. The Court and Crown purchasing As the examples and statistics above show, the Crown purchasing of Maori land in Te

Raki slowed during the 1880s but did not cease. The Court played a multi-faceted role in

these purchases. Most obviously, it awarded alienable title to a small group of

individuals including, in the case of the Puhipuhi block, individuals who had accepted

advance payments from the Crown. It placed alienation restrictions on only small parts

of the land and did not, it would appear, inquire closely into whether those Maori with

connections to the land retained sufficient areas elsewhere.

This was reminiscent of the Court's role in the many Crown purchases of the mid-1870s.

What was different in the 1880s was that the Court had a far more protracted

involvement in the lands. In the mid-1870s, the Court quickly rubber-stamped title for

296 Berghan, A39(f), pp 108-113

137

many blocks, which were then immediately sold to the Crown. The Court’s direct

influence over these lands – and their sale – was significant but short-lived.

The Court's involvement in two key Crown purchases of the 1880s – the Puhipuhi block

in the Whangarei sub-region and Hauturu in the Mahurangi and Gulf Islands sub-region

– was anything but fleeting. For more than a decade, Maori were mired in the Court

system as they sought title over these lands. The Court's involvement in Puhipuhi and

Hauturu was not restricted to the time periods used for this report. Title determination

began in the mid-1870s but was not completed until the mid-1880s. Long and repeated

hearings led to considerable expenses and debt for Te Raki hapu and leaders, worsened

disputes between the claimants, and exposed them to the attention of Crown

purchasers. On occasion, Court officials seemed to encourage and assist Crown

purchase, raising questions about the independence of the Court. Moreover, the debts

and expenses incurred by Maori during this period would appear to have contributed to

most of Puhipuhi being sold almost immediately after title was finally issued, and to the

drawn-out, highly problematic acquisition by the Crown of Hauturu at the end of the

1890s.

3.4.1. Hauturu (Little Barrier Island) Ralph Johnson details the protracted Court involvement in Hauturu. The many years of

title hearings led to disputes, uncertainty and expense for Maori, which, in combination

with the nature of the title it issued, facilitated unwanted land loss. By the early 1870s,

the offshore island of Hauturu (estimated at 6,960 acres) was one of the few pieces of

land owned by Maori in the Mahurangi and Gulf Islands district. The island was not a

purchasing priority for the Crown at this time. As a result, the Court was not called on to

quickly issue title so that the land could be purchased. Instead, local communities were

exposed to a confrontational, protracted, expensive, and somewhat chaotic process.

The first hurdle for local Maori seeking to have the Court confirm their title to Hauturu

was the requirement to carry out a survey prior to the Court hearing. Unless a survey

was to be paid for through sale, it could be prohibitively expensive, as well as being

unreliable. In the mid-1870s, Ngati Wai-aligned Maori, including Rahui Te Kiri and her

138

husband Tenetahi, repeatedly sought a Court hearing but were frustrated by their

inability to secure a survey.

A raft of other claimants also applied for title, and in May 1878, the first of many court

cases involving Hauturu opened in Helensville. The case was adjourned when Judge

Rogan ruled that the survey evidence presented was inadequate under the law.297 By

1880, one of the groups seeking title to Hauturu had sponsored a survey. This, as the

Court process had allowed and encouraged, was a survey carried out without the

permission or even awareness of all those claiming rights to the land, including the

Ngati Wai-aligned group of applicants led by Rahui Te Kiri.298

The second hearing into Hauturu was held at Awaroa in Kaipara in July 1880. Rahui Te

Kiri's people were largely absent from the hearing, believing that it too would have to be

abandoned due to the lack of survey. Their sole representative at the Court, Tenetahi,

was alarmed and surprised when the Court decided to go ahead with the hearing. He

requested an adjournment so that his wife and their supporters could take a full part.

When Judge Rogan refused, Tenetahi declined to give evidence and the hearing took

place without any input from Ngati Wai. After two days of hearings, Rogan awarded

ownership to a group of 18 individuals, including the chiefs Te Hemara Tauhia, Paora

Tuhaere, and Arama Karaka Haututu, who were associated with descendants of the

ancestor Maki. The memorial of ownership identified most of the owners as belonging

to various, mainly Ngati Whatua-connected, hapu.299

Ngati Wai, led by Rahui Te Kiri, then successfully applied for a rehearing on the basis

that their absence, and subsequent omission from title, was due to a lack of awareness

that a survey had been completed and that the hearing would proceed. The third

hearing into Hauturu, this time at Helensville, also failed to conclude the title process. It

opened on 7 May 1881 but was adjourned until 10 May. Four days of evidence was then

297 Johnson, E8, p 4 298 Johnson, E8, p 6. It is my presumption, after reading Johnson's account, that a survey was carried out before the July 1880 hearing. However, the evidence on this is somewhat confusing and an alternative possibility, which E8, pp 8-9 seems to infer, is that the Court decided to allow the hearing to go ahead even though the only survey available was the non-land-based plan it rejected as inadequate in May 1878. 299 Johnson, E8, p 5. One of the owners was identified as belonging to Ngati Ruru of Ngati Maru, another as belonging to Te Urikaraka of Nga Puhi.

139

heard before Chief Judge Fenton ruled that the land should be awarded to Ngati Wai-

aligned claimants. However, Native Assessor Te Wiremu Te Awaitaia disagreed, arguing

in favour of those he identified as belonging to Kawerau.300

This split necessitated a second rehearing which took place in Auckland from 4 to 8 June

1881 in front of Judges Monro and O'Brien. Johnson suggests that, by this time, the

winner-take-all court process and its preference for strict, exclusive tribal

identifications rather than multiple and overlapping affiliations was leading to

increasing polarisation between the claimants. While earlier evidence had emphasised

the links between the many different hapu that were seeking rights, claimants in this

hearing tended to identify themselves as either Ngati Wai or Kawerau, and downplay

the relationships and overlaps between the two. Certainly, the Court's decision in this

hearing revolved around a binary understanding. Judges Monro and O'Brien declared

that it was exceedingly clear that Ngati Wai should be awarded the land. Of course, this

did not mean that the tribe would receive collective title. Instead, the land was awarded

to a group of five Ngati Wai-affiliated individuals.301

Despite appearances, the struggle for title over Hauturu was far from over. The Court

had proved that its title investigation and determination was manifestly unable to solve

the disputes among the parties claiming the land. Instead, divisions and dissatisfaction

had grown. But, with no alternative binding form of title resolution available, Maori

could only continue and deepen their involvement with the Court regarding Hauturu.

Those applicants excluded from title, who were often but not exclusively identified as

belonging to Te Kawerau and/or Ngati Whatua, demanded that matters be reopened. Te

Hemara Tauhia and 32 others petitioned Parliament, claiming that the assessor in the

last hearing had been bribed. They refused to recognise the decision, warning that 'they

will hold the land, and there will be fighting.'302

Moreover, a new and ultimately crucial complication in the title dispute over Hauturu

had emerged. Encouraged by the Court, Crown officials were considering purchasing

300 Johnson, E8, pp 7-8 301 Johnson, E8, pp 8-9 302 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 868

140

Hauturu. During the Russian scare of the early 1880s, the island was considered to be

potentially useful for defence purposes.303 Responding to the advice of Chief Judge

Fenton, D A Tole, the Commissioner of Crown Lands, attended the 1880 and 1881

hearings. Tole informed the Court that Hauturu was 'an important military position',

and successfully requested that it be made inalienable except to the Crown.304

The Crown then started negotiations to acquire the island, including dealing with Ngati

Whatua leaders. This, not surprisingly, alarmed the Ngati Wai-aligned legal owners of

the block. Some responded by offering to sell their rights to the Crown.305

However, Native Minister John Bryce wanted more certainty over title before any

purchase was completed. The Crown therefore set off yet another round of the Native

Land Court process. It rejected calls for a Native Committee rather than the Native Land

Court to determine title to Hauturu. Although the Court process had been legally

exhausted after the two rehearings, the Crown passed legislation voiding the Court's

decisions, reverting Hauturu to customary land and instructing the Court to

reinvestigate the title.

The fifth round of Native Land Court hearings took place in front of Judge Edward

Williams in Auckland from 1 to 15 February 1884. The length of the Court’s hearings,

the distance claimants had to travel and lawyers' fees were all increasing. Detailed

whakapapa evidence was presented but there was also considerable discussion about

earlier and current land purchasing negotiations. To many Maori with interests in

Hauturu, sale now seemed the best way out of the quandary over title, as Paratene Te

Manu told the Court: 'I wish to let the Crown get the land and then the title will be

absolutely at rest.'306

During these hearings, Williams was in close contact with Native Minister Bryce. The

evidence suggests that they worked together to advance the Crown's interests and its

purchase of the block. With a decision pending, the Chief Judge telegraphed Bryce 303 Johnson, E8, pp 23-24 304 Johnson, E8, pp 6, 9 305 Johnson, E8, p 11 306 Johnson, E8, p14

141

asking if the Government was still interested in Hauturu. He warned the Native Minister

that private purchasers were interested and that action was needed if the Crown was to

secure control over the island:

I learn that Crown at one time wanted to acquire Island for defence purposes if desire continues perhaps matter should be seen to as persons are after it.307

Bryce replied that the Government was indeed interested in the land and instructed the

Court to rigorously protect the Crown's interests, including through alienation

restrictions that prevented Maori from dealing with anyone over the land except the

Crown. Chief Judge Williams instructed Bryce on how the Crown could achieve this. On

14 February, just before the final decision was announced, Williams adjourned the

hearing to meet urgently with the Native Minister. Johnson argues that the

'extraordinary conduct on the part of the Chief Judge appears to have compromised the

integrity of [the] Native Land Court system.'308

The end result of the 1884 hearings was that the Court stated that the land belonged to

those associated with Te Kawerau and awarded it to 18 individuals, including Te

Hemara Tauhia, Paora Tuhaere and Arama Karaka Haututu. The Crown began

negotiations to buy the land from them before the Native Minister again called for

caution. With Ngati Wai demanding another rehearing, Bryce warned that the Crown

should not try to conclude a purchase until there was certainty over the title.

When the Court refused to grant a rehearing, the Crown again intervened. Further

legislation was passed requiring the Court to make its sixth title hearings regarding

Hauturu. These hearings, in Auckland from 5 to 18 October 1886, took place under the

shadow of the Crown purchasers who had entered into various negotiations to acquire

the land and had even made a down payment on the block. The Court ruled in favour of

Ngati Wai with 14 individuals named on the memorial of ownership including Rahui Te

Kiri, Tenetahi and their son and daughter.309

307 Johnson, E8, p 14 308 Johnson, E8, p 14 309 Johnson, E8, pp 15-17

142

Led by Rahui Te Kiri and Tenetahi, these owners strengthened efforts to utilise the land.

They established livestock on the island, which grew to a flock of 1,000 sheep and 30

head of cattle, as well as pigs, turkeys, and potato and kumara cultivation.310 In an

attempt to recoup his expenses from the Native Land Court hearings, Tenetahi entered

into arrangements with European traders for the extraction of the island's kauri. It was

apparently agreed by the other owners that the proceeds from this would go to

Tenetahi alone.311

The whanau's efforts to develop the island were helped by the Crown turning its

attention away from it. With an end to the Russian scare and the colony locked in an

economic depression, there was a brief hiatus in Crown efforts to acquire Hauturu.

However, when the Crown's purchasing agents returned in the early 1890s, the

successful applicants were debt-ridden and vulnerable from the long court process.

Tenetahi had personally covered many of the expenses incurred by Ngati Wai during

the hearings. He would later estimate that his expenses came to more than £1,000:

It will be easy to understand that in travelling, attending courts, providing food and lodging for myself and people in Auckland and Helensville, I incurred great expense. My lawyers' bills alone amount to quite 500 pounds, and I reckon that a thousand pounds would not cover my total outlay one way or another ... 312

The debt of the Ngati Wai awardees to lawyers was threatening their hold on the land.

These lawyers were encouraging the Crown to buy the land so that they could be paid

and had begun negotiations. The Native Land Court's relationship with Crown

purchasing in Te Raki created a number of potential and perceived conflicts of interest.

An example is the various roles played by F D Fenton in this case. Fenton as Chief Judge

of the Court presided over the May 1881 rehearing into Hauturu where he ruled in

favour of Ngati Wai-affiliated applicants. He also, during those hearings, encouraged the

Crown to become involved in the title case.313

310 Johnson, E8, pp 32-33, 48, 56

By October 1886, he had left the bench

and was representing the Ngati Wai applicants as their lawyer during the Hauturu

hearings of 1886. This alarmed the Ngati Whatua-Te Kawerau claimants, with Paora

311 Johnson, E8, p 29 312 Johnson, E8, p 55 313 Johnson, E8, p 6

143

Tuhaere unsuccessfully calling for the Court to prevent Fenton's involvement in the

hearing. Whether Fenton was able to use his ties with the Court or not is unclear but he

credited himself with 'rescuing the island from Paul [Tuhaere] and his friends'.314 By

1892, Fenton was calling on the Crown to acquire the block and pay him £100 out of the

purchase price so that he could recoup his fees.315

It should also be noted in this context that another of Ngati Wai's legal representatives

was J A Tole. Te Kawerau applicants unsuccessfully objected to his involvement in the

May 1881 hearings due to his relationship with D A Tole, the Commissioner of Lands,

who was also present at the Court and seeking to secure Crown interest over the

land.316 J A Tole would continue to represent Ngati Wai applicants and would play a

prominent role in encouraging the Crown to purchase the land.317

The Court process contributed in other ways to the eventual alienation of Hauturu. In

June 1881, the Court declared the block inalienable except to the Crown. The

Government further protected its monopoly on acquiring the island by gazetting in July

1881 that it had entered into negotiations to buy the block, therefore making it illegal

for private individuals to lease or purchase the land. This significantly reduced Maori

options for utilising the land except by developing it themselves (with all the capital

costs and potential debt involved) or by selling it to the Crown. In October 1892, the

Crown reissued this proclamation as part of a successful attempt to disrupt Tenetahi's

partnership with a European timber merchant and therefore his ability to recoup the

money he had spent during the title hearings.318

The nature of Court title further encouraged sale. The undivided, undefined rights to

Hauturu made it difficult for most of the owners to gain economic benefit from the

island. They were not restricted from selling to the Crown and impoverished owners,

especially those not residing on the island, soon sought to sell their shares to the Crown.

In July 1888, Henare Te Moananui urged the Crown to take his share in the land in 314 Johnson, E8, p 36 315 Johnson, E8, pp 35-36 316 Johnson, E8, p 6 317 Johnson, E8, p 26 318 Johnson, E8, pp 9-10, 37. See Johnson for more in-depth discussion over the complicated legal issues surrounding this.

144

exchange for food. The sale offer of another owner, Rapata Ngatiwai, was motivated by

the need to repay £10 in Court fees incurred during another case. Hone Paama sought to

'give' his interests in Hauturu to the Government in exchange for land elsewhere. He

indicated that a number of other owners were willing to do the same.319

The Crown's interest in Hauturu was now driven by the desire to conserve its natural

resources. It was determined that no Maori presence whatsoever would be tolerated on

the island. Offers by owners to transfer part of the block to the Crown in exchange for

reserves were rejected.320

The Crown sought to take advantage of Tenetahi's Court-related debt to acquire the

entire island. In 1891, Tenetahi and two other owners signed an agreement to sell

Hauturu to the Crown, contingent on Tenetahi securing the consent of all the owners to

the sale. Under this arrangement, Tenetahi would receive the entire purchase price of

£3,000 which he would distribute to the respective owners. Tenetahi was attracted to

this arrangement because he believed that he would first be entitled to withdraw his

expenses incurred during the Court hearing before dividing the rest among the other

owners. The arrangement soon fell apart with no agreement from the owners. Tenetahi

withdrew his consent to the sale and redoubled his whanau's efforts to find a way to pay

his debts and gain financial benefit from the island without selling the land to the

Crown.321

The Court system would play a major role in the Crown's eventual acquisition of the

block. Two owners applied to the Court for apportionment of their relative interests. It

would seem that other owners, including those resident of the island, were not involved

in this. Nonetheless, the Court divided the ownership of the entire block into equal

shares. This did not give the owners their own piece of Hauturu to utilise. To achieve

this, owners would have needed to apply to the Court for a partition of the block so that

they could receive a portion of land that represented their shares. Instead, the Court's

award allowed the Crown to purchase piecemeal the shares of some of the owners

319 Johnson, E8, pp 24-25 320 Johnson, E8, p 23-24 321 Johnson, E8, pp 27-28

145

before attempting to force non-sellers off Hauturu. The Crown gradually collected

signatures and made payments for interests through 1892 and 1893. However,

Tenetahi, Rahui Te Kiri and their whanau were steadfast in both their opposition to sale

and their determination to continue to reside on the island.322

The Government rejected attempts at compromise and decided to eject the family from

the island. Johnson analyses the Little Barrier Island Purchase Act 1894 which

established the legislative grounds for the compulsory acquisition of the non-sellers’

shares in Hauturu. For our discussion, the critical point is that the Court was involved in

the forcible acquisition of Hauturu. The Crown applied for the Court to determine the

amount of shares held by the owners who refused to sell. Despite protests by the non-

sellers, the Court carried out this role. Based on these share determinations, the Crown

then allocated compensation to the non-sellers and declared that their rights to the land

had been compulsorily acquired.323

Tenetahi, Rahui and their whanau continued to resist. They refused to collect the money

allocated to them and continued to reside on the land. They were forcibly removed from

the island in 1895. The Government deducted the costs of their forcible eviction from

the value of Tenetahi's share held by the Public Trustee. Tenetahi was subsequently

imprisoned when he tried to return.324 Government promises to compensate Tenetahi

for his legal costs incurred during the Native Land Court hearings were never

honoured.325

3.4.2. Puhipuhi The Court process was also a significant factor in the alienation of the approximately

25,000-acre Puhipuhi block. Mark Derby's report details the Court's protracted,

contradictory and confused attempts to determine title for this block, located 25

kilometres north of Whangarei and 20 kilometres southeast of Kawakawa.

322 Johnson, E8, pp 34-43 323 Johnson, E8, p 48 324 Johnson, E8, p 57 325 Johnson, E8, pp 61-62

146

As discussed in chapter one, by 1871, representatives of Ngati Hau, led by Eru Nehua,

were seeking title over Puhipuhi. They intended to sell the land to the Crown except for

the southern part around Taharoa which would be owned and developed by Nehua and

his people. This plan met strong opposition from other groups, including Ngati Hine led

by Maihi Paraone Kawiti, and Ngati Wai and its associated iwi/hapu Ngati Te Ra and

Ngati Manu, represented by Hoterene Tawatawa.

The Court was unable to mediate a satisfactory agreement between these groups.

Instead, its hearings in 1873 and 1875 deepened the confrontation and confusion

surrounding the block. In 1873, Judge Maning apparently suggested that Ngati Hau

representatives including Nehua would be awarded 14,000 acres of Puhipuhi, with

6,000 acres awarded to Kawiti and Ngati Hine and the remaining 5,000 awarded to

applicants from Ngati Wai and others led by Tawatawa. But Maning then seemed to

backtrack, denying he had made this suggestion and, instead, advocating that the block

should be equally split between the three groups. A subsequent suggestion by Maning

that each group should be allocated some shares in the portion allocated to their rivals

only added to the uncertainty.326 The Court failed to make any binding title

determination.327

Actions by Crown purchasing agents further complicated title determination for

Puhipuhi. In November 1878, Charles Nelson made advance payments to Tawatawa and

Nehua.328 These payments deepened Maori beliefs that the Court's determinations were

part of the land purchase process rather than independent of it. Kawiti seems to have

viewed the advance payments as giving his rivals a potentially crucial advantage in the

battle for title. He feared, not unreasonably given what was happening elsewhere in Te

Raki, that the Court would favour Tawatawa and Nehua given that they were

negotiating and ready to sell the land to the Crown and had already been recognised by

its agents as holding rights to the land. Other Maori with interests in Puhipuhi shared

this belief. Kawiti refused to be excluded and accepted a Crown advance payment.329

326 Derby, A61, pp 73-84, especially pp 79, 84 327 Derby, A61, pp 75-79 328 Derby, A61, p 121 329 Derby, A61, pp 123-127

147

In 1880 and 1881, both the recipients and those excluded from advance payments

repeatedly sought title hearings for Puhipuhi. Maori were desperately scrambling for

title so that they could benefit from and exercise some control over the land

transactions over Puhipuhi that appeared inevitable. In April 1882 at Kawakawa, Judge

John Symonds presided over the third Native Land Court investigation into Puhipuhi.

Evidence was heard over a full eight days. The Court's independence from the land

purchasing process was further blurred by the dual role played during these hearings

by John Greenway, a Court official and interpreter 'with privileged access to the judge',

who was also acting as a Crown purchasing agent.330

This Court rejected Kawiti and Ngati Hine's rights to Puhipuhi. Judge Symonds awarded

9,000 acres of the southern part to the block to Nehua and Ngati Hau. Disappointed with

this, they refused to provide a list of names and received no certificate of title. Ngati Wai

and their whanaunga Ngati Manu and Ngati Te Ra were, on the other hand, delighted to

be awarded the bulk of the block, 16,000 acres. They provided a list of 36 names for the

certificate of title, but left out Tawatawa, apparently because they did not want to be

bound by his earlier acceptance of an advance payment and his agreement to sell the

land to the Crown. The exclusion of Tawatawa threatened the Crown's purchasing plans.

After contact between the registrar of the Court and the Crown, Tawatawa was added to

the title. Derby argues that this appears to have been 'a clearcut instance of a Crown

intervention to ensure that Court title determination reflected the payment of the

Crown's advances'.331

Greenway then attempted to complete the purchase but his efforts were complicated by

Maori protests and demands, including by Nehua and Kawiti, for a rehearing. The ill-

feeling was only heightened when the Crown refused a combined attempt by all three

disputing parties to return the advance payments and repudiate any commitment to sell

the land. In June 1882, there was an armed showdown between Ngati Hau, who felt

aggrieved by the Court's title ruling, and the Ngati Wai, Ngati Manu, and Ngati Te Ra

grantees.332

330 Derby A61, p 152

331 Derby A61, p 154 332 Derby A61, p 155-159

148

This may have prompted Chief Judge Fenton to allow a rehearing into this case, which

took place at Kawakawa in May 1883 under judges Loughlin O'Brien and Major William

Mair. Hipirini Te Whetu was the Native Assessor. Before the rehearing, Native Land

Purchase Under-Secretary R Gill instructed Greenway to use his influence at the Court

to advance the Crown's purchasing interest. Gill instructed him to guard the interests of

the Government and ensure that those who had received advance payments were, if the

land was awarded to their hapu, included on the title. Gill provided Greenway with a list

with details of those who should be included and the amount of money they had

previously received. Derby writes that Greenway was playing a 'conflicted' role:

as a supposedly impartial officer of the court, and also as an agent expected to 'watch the interests' of the Crown, which was determined to purchase Puhipuhi. It also suggests that by paying advances to individuals or groups ... [Crown purchase] agents were, in effect, shaping who was ultimately included in ownership lists, once title was awarded. In combination, these issues raise serious doubts about the independence of the court process.333

The rehearing was lengthy, lasting from 10 to 26 May 1883. During the hearing, the

claimants complained to the Court about the fees they were incurring,334 Undoubtedly, a

greater cost still was the involvement of lawyers, with J M Fraser representing Ngati

Hine during the rehearing. The role of debt in these hearings and the consequent sale of

most of Puhipuhi is discussed elsewhere. After what it described as 'a most difficult

case', the Court awarded 20,000 acres to Eru Nehua and his Ngati Hau claimants. Kawiti

and Ngati Hine received 3,000 acres (Puhipuhi 2) and individuals connected with Ngati

Wai, Ngati Manu, and Ngati Te Ra received 2,000 acres (Puhipuhi 3).335

As Derby points out, the Court had once again come to a radically different conclusion

regarding rights to Puhipuhi. But by 1883, the claimants had 'evidently grown

thoroughly tired' of a dispute and a Court process 'that had dragged on for more than a

decade'.336 Despite complaints by those excluded from the title, the three groups of

awardees quickly moved to sell their interests and pay off their debts.337

maintained were a 200-acre reserve in the main sale area by Ngati Hau and about 5,510

acres (Puhipuhi 4 and 5) that was awarded to Eru Nehua's whanau and associates and

restricted from alienation.338

Below, we discuss Nehua's efforts to utilise and develop

these remaining parts of Puhipuhi. But, overall, the case of Puhipuhi suggests that, even

in the 1880s, the Court process remained entwined with Crown purchasing.

3.5. Fragmentation and Partition While the Court continued in the 1880s to play a role in Maori land loss in Te Raki, its

processes also impacted on the ability of Maori to utilise and benefit from the areas that

remained in their ownership. This report has concentrated hitherto on the fact that the

Court awarded most Te Raki blocks to a single or a few individuals and how this

contributed to land loss and dispossession. However, another dynamic was increasingly

important from the 1880s onwards. The Court awarded a sizeable minority of blocks in

Te Raki to large numbers of individual owners. These owners possessed undefined,

undivided shares and were mired in a netherworld without either effective collective or

individual control over the land.

These blocks were often too small to economically support the many owners and their

dependents. Title overcrowding worsened due to the Court's succession policy. The

interests of intestate owners were inherited equally by all their children, leading to

increasing numbers of owners holding minuscule interests in blocks.339

It is worth pondering why the Court chose to award some blocks to many individual

owners and others to just a handful. The striking disparity did not come from the

The increasing

fragmentation of title only entrenched Maori involvement in the Court. Over time,

owners repeatedly returned to the Court to define and subdivide their interests into

what they hoped was a more manageable, effective form of title. This was rarely

successful. The shares of the owners were usually too small, and the Court process too

expensive and confused, to create viable individual plots. Indeed, relatively few

individual subdivisions were created. Rather more common was the creation of many

subdivisions too small to be economically viable, owned by multiple individual owners.

338 Derby, A61, p 178 339 Alan Ward, National Overview, 3 vols., Waitangi Tribunal Rangahaua Whanui Series (Wellington: GP Publications, 1997), vol 1, p 68; Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, pp 92-93

150

Court's understanding of customary tenure. There is nothing to suggest that judges

believed that a particular piece of land was traditionally under the sole control of a

single chief while a nearby area had many different interest-holders from a wide variety

of groups.

Instead, there would seem to be two major and inter-related reasons why a block would

be awarded to many rather than just a few Maori in Te Raki. The first was that the

applicants requested it. Blocks awarded to large numbers were often areas that local

Maori were determined to keep rather than sell. One example is the 20-acre Huiarau

block. The site of the important Raupekapeka pa, it was awarded to 42 Maori in 1882.340

While single owners or a few owners were often installed on the title to ease alienation,

many owners were seen as a way to prevent it. Moreover, Te Raki Maori had lost so

much of their land by this point that competition for legal title over the remaining areas

was especially potent. Rights to even small areas of land could be crucial for an

increasingly landless people.

More directly, land was awarded to many different owners when the Court was

confronted with dispute and opposing claimants. As we have seen, Court cases in Te

Raki were often tightly controlled affairs with little discussion about the complexities of

customary title, particularly when the Crown was already arranging the purchase of the

land. It was common in these cases for a small number of applicants to come to the

Court and claim rights to all the land. This encouraged the Court, whose policy was to

consider only the evidence presented to it, to make awards that failed to reflect the

reality that many other Maori traditionally held rights in the land.

But matters were different if a number of counterclaimants came forward to the Court

to oppose the applicants and, most crucially, the different parties gathered at the Court

could not reach informal agreement among themselves about who should be awarded

the title. These hearings tended to be longer, with debate and dispute among the

claimants and considerable discussion on communal, traditional rights and whakapapa.

In these contested cases, the Court would usually rule which tribal or ancestral group or

340 Armstrong, P1, p 34

151

groups (it was often more than one) held rights over the block. Representatives from

these groups would then produce lists of individual owners for the Court's approval.

These ownership lists were sometimes extensive.

Ironically, these more tribal and collective battles to gain and maintain title and

ownership lists that, at least to some degree, acknowledged that many Maori

traditionally held rights to land, encouraged the individualisation and loss of land. Over

time, blocks awarded to many individuals were usually subdivided and fragmented with

Europeans and, especially in the 1890s, the Crown purchasing the shares of the owners

and gradually acquiring substantial areas.

The Court's issuing of title to a few individuals contributed to massive land loss in Te

Raki. However, land awarded to a large amount of individuals also brought Te Raki

Maori few benefits. Either way, Court title was associated in Te Raki with the

destruction of Maori control over their land.

152

Figure 11: The Whirinaki Block

3.5.1. Whirinaki The approximately 2,360-acre Whirinaki block in southern Hokianga is an example of

how Court awards to large numbers of individual owners led to partitions and

eventually to land loss. The block came before the Court on 11 November 1885 with

153

Hapakuku Moetara leading the claimants' case. There was considerable opposition to

their claim, with 43 separate counter-claimants present at the hearings. The claimants

eventually accepted some of these counter-claimants into their application while others

argued their case in front of the Court. After a day's adjournment, a full fortnight of

evidence was heard.341

The Court ruled that the land would be awarded to those individuals descended from

two ancestors, Karewa and Tuteauru, who could show they had exercised ownership

rights in the block. Two leading claimants, Hapakuku Moetara and Karora Makarena

were asked to prepare the lists of owners. Their lists included 190 and 168 individuals

respectively. The lists provoked protests in Court from some of those excluded, with

allegations that they were the result of corruption and payoffs as much as customary

connections. As a result of the protests, further names were admitted to the list.

Whirinaki was awarded to at least 413 individuals.342

The block was clearly too small to

economically support so many owners. If the block was divided equally, each individual

would have received 5.71 acres. In reality, of course, the individual owners at this stage

held no defined, distinct portion of land.

It would appear that the many owners of Whirinaki were unable to gain much economic

benefit from their title. In 1894, partitioning began. Once started, it proved hard to stop

as Whirinaki was subdivided into ever diminishing fragments, each with a new official

appellation, and owned by a small group of individuals. For example, in 1912, the Court

created the subdivision of Whirinaki 4E2A and awarded it to 4 owners. Its size was 8

acres, 2 roods and 8 perches.343

From this point onwards, many of the Whirinaki subdivisions were sold or leased to

Europeans. Presumably, those that remained offered their owners few economic

opportunities. According to Paula Berghan, most of Whirinaki is no longer in Maori

ownership. The small amount that remains Maori land is split into at least 75

subdivisions, some as small as 2 roods.344

3.5.2. Punakitere No.2 Punakitere No. 2, a 4,767-acre block in the Hokianga sub-region, is another example of

how land awarded to large numbers of individual owners impeded economic utilisation

and led, after many years of futility and frustration, to fragmentation, subdivisions and

land loss. The following discussion is based on Berghan's block history and an initial

draft of Tony Walzl's upcoming report.

According to Walzl, closely connected hapu had long occupied this land. In 1876, Maori

sought title over the block, apparently as part of disputes over the control of kauri gum

and timber arrangements with Europeans. The Court system deepened these disputes

and led to conflict over the survey and application process.345

The title hearing, which opened at Ohaeawai on 20 October 1876, revolved around the

claims of Ngati Ue on the one hand and Ngati Tuatahi and Ngatitu on the other. Both

sides claimed the entire block and did not recognise the rights of the other. After several

days of evidence, Judge Monro ruled in favour of both groupings. He stated that one

unspecified part of Punakitere No. 2 would be awarded to individuals from Ngati Ue,

and the other to individuals from Ngati Tuatahi and Ngatitu, and asked for ownership

lists to be prepared.346

This did not satisfy the disputants and for a number of years the title for the block

remained in limbo with claimant groups refusing to submit ownership lists. In May

1883, Maori appeared at the Court in Ohaeawai and attempted to reopen the entire

issue of ownership of Punakitere No 2. Judge O'Brien refused, and after considerable

wrangling, representatives from the three groups finally heeded his demands that

ownership lists be prepared. Twenty-four individuals from the Ngati Ue list were

awarded an undefined half of the block. The other half was granted to 33 individuals on

the Ngati Tuatahi list along with 29 on the Ngatitu list.347

345 Tony Walzl, 'Kohatutaka and Punakitere No.2 (1865-present)', Wai 1040 Local Studies of NLC land blocks, initial draft for internal review, 26 August 2016, pp 10-13

As Walzl states, it is doubtful

whether this title, and the entire Native Land Court process, was appropriate, given that

346 Walzl, 'Kohatutaka and Punakitere No.2', 26 August 2016 draft, p 13 347 Walzl, 'Kohatutaka and Punakitere No.2', 26 August 2016 draft, pp 14-16

156

tenure in the block was traditionally fluid with owners sharing and competing over

overlapping rights.348

Certainly, Native Land Court title did not lead to successful and sustainable utilisation of

Punakitere No. 2. Through the rest of the nineteenth century, it would seem that Maori

utilisation of the block revolved around gum digging and timber with little cultivation or

farming. In the mid-1890s, the Crown purchased the shares of two owners and after a

Court hearing, was awarded 49 acres.349

But it was the early twentieth century that saw the effects of the Court system really

take hold. By this point, the gum on the block was running out and many Maori were

digging elsewhere. Presumably in order to create new economic opportunities in the

block, a series of partitions took place. Initially, these were the result of discussions and

agreements between owners, with attempts to share the best and least productive land

and to create geographically defined holdings that encouraged whanau utilisation. But

the partition process proved impossible to stop. The subdivided blocks grew

increasingly smaller, and by 1919 most were less than 50 acres.350

By way of example, in 1912, Punakitere 2B7 was split into 15 new subdivisions. The two

larger subdivisions had many owners. More than 100 held rights in a 626-acre block

while 52 individuals owned a 127-acre area. The smaller subdivisions were also ill-

suited for economic development. Seven individuals held rights in Punakitere 2B7C,

which was just over 30 acres, while Punakitere 2B7H was just over 3 acres and had 2

owners.351

The number of owners of these subdivisions grew further due to the Court's succession

policy and the growth of the Te Raki Maori population. In 1883, Punakitere No. 2 was

awarded to 86 individuals. By 1920, there were 250 owners. Fragmentation did not

immediately lead to alienation. Up until 1950, Maori still retained 90 percent of the

348 Walzl, 'Kohatutaka and Punakitere No.2', 26 August 2016 draft, p 58 349 Berghan, A39(f), p 365 350 Walzl, 'Kohatutaka and Punakitere No.2', 26 August 2016 draft, p 59 351 Berghan, A39(f), p 368

157

original block, but, as Walzl comments, 'there was little land utilisation'.352 At that stage,

the Crown began to acquire many of the subdivisions. Today, just 674 acres of

Punakitere No. 2, split into approximately 50 subdivisions, remains Maori land. This

represents just 13.6 percent of the original block.353

158

3.5.3. Pakanae No. 2 Fragmentation and partitioning often affected blocks that local Maori had set aside for

their residence and maintenance during the surge of Crown purchasing in the mid

1870s. As Coralie Clarkson discusses, the Crown purchased most of Pakanae in 1875.

The following year local Maori went to the Court to secure title over an approximately

425-acre area (Pakanae No. 2) which would seem to have been the site of the main

papakainga in the area.354

On 11 November 1876, Hapakuku Moetara gave evidence to the Court at Herd's Point

on behalf of Ngati Korokoro. Unlike the areas sold to the Crown, the applicants wanted

Pakanae No. 2 awarded to a significant number of Maori, both, it would seem, to protect

it from sale and because it had to support many different people. With most

surrounding land now owned by the Crown, Pakanae No. 2 was critical for ongoing

Maori settlement and cultivation in the area. It possessed some flat land and an

advantageous location close to Hokianga Harbour. As Hapakuku Moetara told the Court,

it was the site of Ngati Korokoro's permanent settlement named Pakanae and was a

place of pa and cultivations. He suggested 36 people who should be placed on the

memorial of owners.355

For unknown reasons, Judge Monro adjourned the hearing without issuing title. It was

5½ years later, on 21 March 1882, when Judge Symonds reheard the case at Herd's

Point. The applicants stated that the block belonged to Ngati Korokoro and Ngati Pouka,

and that it had long been occupied and was a place of tribal cultivation and burial sites.

There were no objections, and an ownership list with 66 individuals was submitted and

accepted.356

However, Pakanae No. 2 was simply too small to support this many owners. The block

was 425 acres, and the 66 owners held the undefined equivalent of just 6.44 acres of

land each. By 1889, succession cases meant that at least 90 Maori held rights to the

354 Clarkson, A58, p 10 355 Clarkson, A58, pp 44-46 356 Rigby, A58, pp 46-48

159

land.357

But the legal owners were not the only ones connected to Pakanae 2 and it

would seem that Maori settlement in the region was increasingly concentrated on this

small, desirable piece of land.

In November 1889, Pakanae No. 2 was suddenly and radically divided. Some owners

were seeking defined portions that they could sell or lease. Others, apparently, wanted

to create small holdings for individual residences and cultivation. Acting on owner

requests, the Court subdivided Pakanae No. 2 into 82 numbered sections.358

To survey all these subdivisions proved prohibitively expensive and difficult. With no

adequate boundaries, the ability of the owners to benefit from this land – including

selling or leasing it – was handicapped. For more than 30 years, this block lay in a

strange and uncompleted legal state, with 82 undefined subdivisions. As Clarkson

discusses, the lack of a survey eventually 'became too problematic to ignore' and in

1922 the block was surveyed and repartitioned into 30 subdivisions.359 This required a

complex Court process and considerable survey costs for often tiny pieces of land. The

number of owners had grown quickly with one subdivision awarded to 55 different

individuals. This was not the end of partitioning. Today, parts of Pakanae No. 2 remain

in Maori ownership but in a hopelessly uneconomic tenure. For instance, the 2-acre

Pakanae 2L block has 175 owners.360

3.6. The Economic Results of Interaction with the Court By the 1880s, it was apparent that interaction with the Native Land Court had set back

rather than aided the economic position of Te Raki Maori. The reports of Nicholas

Bayley, David Alexander, and Armstrong and Subasic all argue that the large-scale titling

and sales of the mid-1870s had brought few benefits, apart from the quickly exhausted

sale price.361 Te Raki Maori had lost the majority of their 'primary asset': their land.362

357 Rigby, A58, p 560

The areas that they did retain, and especially those blocks under Court tenure, were

358 Clarkson, A58, pp 48-50 359 Clarkson, A58, p 76 360 Clarkson, A58, pp 80-85, 124-125 361 Bayley, E41, pp 65-106; Alexander, A7, pp 110-205 in particular; Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1117-1129 in particular 362 Bayley, E41, pp 88-89

160

proving inadequate for social and economic equality and progress.363 There were

frequent reports that Te Raki Maori were failing to 'grow sufficient food for themselves

let alone to sell to others’.364

Te Raki Maori were the poorest and most vulnerable sector of an economically

backwards region marked by a chronic lack of infrastructure. A general depression in

agriculture during the 1880s deepened their economic and political marginalisation.

For the rest of the century and beyond Maori economic survival in Te Raki revolved not

around their land but their labour in extractive industries, especially gum digging.365

A number of reports for this inquiry that discuss specific blocks and areas suggest that

land under Court title proved to be an inadequate basis for economic development. For

example, reports by Alexandra Horsley on the Otangaroa, Te Pupuke and Waihapa

blocks in Whangaroa; by Dr Ann Beaglehole on Horohora in the Whangarei district; and

by Tony Walzl regarding Punakitere No. 2 in the Hokianga district all failed to uncover

evidence of successful farming or economic utilisation in the nineteenth century.366

Only a handful of Te Raki chiefs did, for a time at least, successfully use the Native Land

Court to create economic opportunities for themselves and their people. These leaders

exhibited considerable skills and expended considerable resources in their attempt to

navigate and control the Court system. But even in these exceptional cases, interaction

with the Court ultimately led to land loss and fragmentation.

The attempt by Maori led by Rahui Te Kiri and Tenetahi to gain a secure hold over

Hauturu and to strengthen their existing economic activities on the island has already

been discussed. Over time, this whanau and group created cultivations and timber

363 There is insufficient evidence to argue whether Maori gained more economic advantage from their customary or Court-titled land. With a few exceptions, there seems to have been little successful Maori farming in this period on any type of land. One exception was in the Rohe Potae around Motatau. As discussed below, freedom from Court-derived tenure appears in this case to have encouraged innovative collective enterprise. 364 Bayley, E41, p 79 365 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1124-1131, 1134-1135 366 Horsely, A57; Dr Ann Beaglehole, 'Horohora Block History', local studies of NLC land blocks, a report for the local issues research programme for the Te Paparahi o Te Raki (Wai 1040) inquiry, draft, June 2016; Walzl, 'Kohatutaka and Punakitere No.2 (1865-present)', initial draft of internal review, 26 August 2016

161

partnerships, and established a flock of 1,000 sheep, 30 head of cattle, as well as other

livestock. But in the late 1890s, Tenetahi was still wracked with debt incurred during

the long battle for title over this land. Non-resident owners sold their interests to the

Crown while resident owners had their interests compulsorily acquired and were

forcibly evicted from the island.367

A not dissimilar case involved Te Hemara Tauhia and his people in Mahurangi. We have

seen that during the late 1860s, Te Hemara expertly used the Court to gain legal title

over key remaining areas of Mahurangi for himself and others, especially in Waiwera-

Puhoi. He was, for a period, held up by Europeans as a glowing example of a chief using

legal title to carry out farming and other economic developments.

But by the 1880s much of the land had been sold and he was, in Armstrong and

Subasic's words, an example of 'thwarted Maori ambitions'.368

the need to further develop land resulted in more land sales and leases. But given an ongoing lack of ready and more reliable access to markets, an absence of settlement on the scale promised by Crown agents, the multitude of costs associated with the Native Land Court ... and the need to support a community of 60-100 people (including covering their debts), Te Hemara's efforts ultimately came to nothing and the only alternative was to continue selling in order to ensure mere survival.

They argue that for Te

Hemara:

369

By 1889, Te Hemara had transferred the last vestiges of his land, just over 2,000 acres at

Puhoi plus some shares in land elsewhere, to his wife. His predicament was a drastic

example of the landlessness that affected Mahurangi Maori in general by this time. As he

told Government ministers: 'you have taken my shirt, trousers, and everything.'370

Eru Nehua was another leader who used his mana in both the Maori and European

spheres to try to gain title and carry out innovative and ambitious economic

developments. Derby depicts Nehua as a modernising and gifted leader with in-depth

knowledge and understanding of the Court process. From the 1860s, he led farming and

367 Johnson, E8, including pp 29, 32-33, 48, 56 368 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 940 369 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 950 370 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 947

162

cultivation efforts around the papakainga of Taharoa. By 1882, fifty or sixty members of

his hapu occupied and were communally farming the area. They owned 250 head of

cattle, 210 sheep, 2,000 pigs, and 20 horses and had installed a European on part of the

land to help run the cattle.371

Nehua took a prominent role in the titling and sale of surrounding lands.372 It would

appear that he funnelled his share of the proceeds from these sales and from advance

payments for the Puhipuhi block into the effort to gain title and develop the southern

part of Puhipuhi, including Taharoa.373 Nehua incurred significant court-related costs

including £302 he paid for the survey of the Puhipuhi block.374

Finally, in 1883, after a long and difficult Court battle, Nehua achieved his aim. The

Court granted Puhipuhi 5, which included Taharoa, to 12 of his hapu and immediate

whanau. The nearby Puhipuhi 4 was also awarded to 26 of his hapu. These 5,510 acres

of land represented around 21 per cent of the original Puhipuhi block and included

some of its best farming areas. Relatively flat and partly cleared for grazing, it already

had houses, fencing, and access routes. Another valuable resource was its kahikatea

forest.375

Crucially, Nehua did not just seek title but used the Court and land sale process to

maintain control over the land. He successfully requested that the Court make these

lands inalienable except by sale, mortgage or lease for more than 21 years.376

371 Derby, A61, p 197

He strove

to keep himself and his people out of debt so that they could develop rather than sell the

areas. In 1884, he and his fellow Ngati Hau leaders sold the Puhipuhi 1 block (13,372

acres) to the Crown for £8,574. He further solidified his position by insisting, during this

sale, that the Crown grant him a further 200-acre reserve within the sale block.

Moreover, the Crown reimbursed him for previous surveying costs in Puhipuhi and paid

372 Armstrong, P1, pp 31-40 373 Apart from land sales, little evidence has been found suggesting whether Te Raki Maori were able to access development finance. 374 Derby, A61, p 181 375 Derby, A61, p 276 376 Derby, A61, pp 171-172

163

for the survey of the three portions that would remain under his and his people's

control.377

In the following years, Nehua and his whanau successfully farmed Puhipuhi 5. In 1890,

it was reported that he lived ‘in European style and is much respected by the settlers for

his many good qualities. The sheep on his place were in splendid condition.' Between

1890 and 1905, he was one of the largest sheep farmers in Whangarei County with a

flock that reached 900.378

Nehua continued to use his influence and skills to combat the Court's tendency to

undermine chiefly control over land. He did not have himself installed on the title for

Puhipuhi 5 but asserted his influence in other ways. The title for Puhipuhi 5 was kept

restricted to whanau and supporters with Nehua acting as trustee for some of the

minors. It was generally agreed that the land was 'never to be partitioned' and was to

remain a joint family enterprise. Nehua refused to allow any part of the block to be sold

or leased and went to the Court to prevent those from outside the immediate family

gaining rights to the land through succession.379

Nehua's successful control of Puhipuhi 5 allowed him and his family to play a significant

role in the wider area. They were briefly part-owners of at least two silver mines, and

Nehua owned boarding houses. They cleared and farmed other lands they owned and

donated land for a school and church on the Puhipuhi block.380

But even Nehua, with his advantages and skills, could not hold off the forces of

fragmentation and sale for ever. His control over Puhipuhi 4, owned by 26 members of

his hapu, was always more limited. He was trustee for a number of minors who, by

1894, had reached the age of 21 and had control over their interests. The block was less

economically successful than Puhipuhi 5 and by 1896 partitions, frequent Court

hearings and conflict had begun.381

377 Derby, A61, pp 181, 184, 187-188

378 Derby, A61, p 277 379 Derby, A61, pp 278-279 380 Derby, A61, pp 362-363 381 Derby, A61, p 281

164

Puhipuhi 5 was also partitioned at the end of the century, albeit in a more controlled

fashion. In 1914, Nehua died. His ability to utilise and control the Court and sale process

to encourage the collective development of land would not survive him. Increasingly in

debt, and lacking his strong leadership presence, the owners of Puhipuhi 4 and 5 moved

towards sale. By 1926, about 56 percent of the two blocks had been sold and a further

33 percent leased to Europeans.382

It had taken some time, but the Court and sale

process had finally overcome the development attempts of Eru Nehua and his people.

3.7. Resistance to the Court For many Te Raki iwi, hapu, and leaders, the Native Land Court was by the 1880s

synonymous with poverty and land loss rather than economic development and secure

title. This led, for the rest of the nineteenth century and beyond, to sustained attempts

by Te Raki Maori to reform, resist and destroy the Native Land Court. The Court system

would survive. Nonetheless, Te Raki Maori resistance from the 1880s onwards was a

crucial factor in slowing its progress and keeping significant parts of the inquiry district

under customary title.

3.7.1. Political Protest Armstrong and Subasic provide a thorough discussion on the rapid rise of opposition in

Te Raki to the Native Land Court. They note that during the 1871 Haultain inquiry, Te

Raki chiefs had criticised aspects of the titling process but had not expressed

'fundamental opposition, or opposition of a political nature' to the Court as an

institution. The large-scale hearings and land sales beginning in 1875 changed all that.

In Armstrong and Subasic's words, a 'cognitive shift' had taken place in the attitudes of

Te Raki Maori by the early 1880s and the 'whole Native Land Court and Crown land

purchase system' was under attack.383

Some of the most prominent chiefs of Te Raki led these protests. These men had been

(and, to some degree continued to be) closely involved with the Court and with land

sales, which they now considered a path to devastation and disempowerment. They

382 Derby, A61, p 284 383 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 998

165

merged potent criticism of the titling and purchasing system with implied regret about

their own involvement. In 1879, Te Hemara Tauhia addressed the Orakei Parliament, a

pan-tribal political forum. He said:

The Native Land Court was established. Then we perceived our misfortunes when it was decided that pakehas should be judges of the court. What did the pakehas know of Maori customs that they should be appointed judges? Sometimes in these courts a chief would get up and claim the land: but a man of inferior birth would also claim. The land was awarded to the chief, and the man of inferior birth got nothing ... But listen. The pakehas are not to blame: all the Natives in this Island committed part of the fault. The only fault of the pakehas is that they have taken the mana of the whole island. They do not leave any mana over the land or the sea to the chiefs. There was no reason for depriving the chiefs of their mana.384

Te Hemara argued that only the complete abandonment of the Court system could save

Maori and their land:

I condemn this continual anxiety of the Maoris to sell land, by which we shall die. But you may bring up the sale of lands, and you cannot stop it. Only when the Courts are abolished can we attempt to stop the sale of lands. There are troubles upon all the Island through these Land Courts. We are to blame as well as the Government.385

Te Raki Maori played a major role in calls by the Orakei Parliament for the Court to be

abolished. The Orakei Parliament in 1879 passed Paora Tuhaere's resolution that:

surveys, Land Courts, and Crown grants should cease; that the Maori mana should remain over lands not surveyed and adjudicated ... that reserves should be made inalienable; that deposits on land and mortgages should cease.386

The same demands were voiced in the New Zealand Parliament. Since the mid 1870s,

Hone Mohi Tawhai had protested about the harmful influence of advance payments in

the Court and land purchasing system. He knew of what he spoke, having himself

accepted these payments and been involved in a number of title determinations and

transactions in Te Raki. In 1876, at the height of the Court hearings and land sales, he

wrote to the Government newspaper Te Wananga claiming that:

384 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 945-946 385 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 946 386 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 946

166

The following are what the Ngapuhi have agreed to: That the Native Lands Court be done away with. That the lands which we have not passed through the Native Lands Court, shall be held by us in the same way as they were held by our ancestors.387

By 1879, he was the Northern Maori Member of the House of Representatives and

believed that advances, Court surveys and hearings were the cause of violence and

conflict. He told Parliament that the Court should be abolished as:

the real cause of these troubles is the law which provides for the Native Land Court, through which surveyors go on the land to survey, and in doing so get shot at. How is it that it never struck your people who have been in previous Governments this Native Land Court should be eradicated[?]388

Tawhai was delighted when in 1883 the Government proposed banning advance

payments, but outraged when the Crown exempted itself from the law. He told the

House:

There was a law laid down that it should not be permitted for any dealings to be carried out in connection with Native lands, such as leasing or sales, before such lands had been adjudicated upon by the Native Land Court or surveyed ... you, the Europeans who are so full of wisdom and knowledge, did not pay any respect to that law, but you became law-breakers. You continue that practice until the scandal becomes too great; then you come here and try to make a fresh law ... You cannot say the Maori has been instrumental in bringing about his own doom – that he has been trampling underfoot the law that has been made for him. Sir, I will not say that the Europeans sinned only against the law – against the Acts brought in – but they also broke the Treaty of Waitangi.389

Armstrong and Subasic cite this speech as an example of how the Treaty of Waitangi

was increasingly a key point of reference in the protests of Te Raki Maori, which were

'centred on land title individualisation, land alienation, and the Native Land Court

system'.390

Calls to abolish the Court were increasingly coupled with demands that it be replaced by

separate Maori institutions. Many Te Raki Maori continued to want legally recognised

387 Henare et al, A37, pp 585-586 388 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 720 389 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 996-997 390 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 997

167

title over their lands. But they wanted Maori, not the Native Land Court, to define the

nature of that title and to make the crucial decisions. In 1883, Tawhai led calls for the

Queen and the British Parliament to save Maori from being 'swept from the land of the

forefathers.' He and other Maori members of Parliament explained that the Court was

awarding tribal land to individuals and demanded that it be abolished. Maori lands

should be vested in 'an elective body of Maoris, who would be better able to decide

questions of title than European judges.’391

Maihi Paraone Kawiti was another who advocated that Maori committees and runanga

should replace the Court. He had long criticised the entire edifice of legislation that

guided the Court. In 1876, he and 269 others submitted a petition objecting to a new

Native Lands Bill which they believed was:

worse than the Native Land Acts of 1873 and 1874, and that death would be better than life if such torture is to continue. That, while objecting to the proposed new law, they also earnestly pray for the repeal of the laws of 1873 and 1874.392

By 1881, he was demanding that:

we Maoris be allowed to manage our own concerns. Let there be a committee appointed to consider Maori subjects. The great thing is that Maoris should consider and have management of their own affairs.393

Hirini Taiwhanga also favoured the abolition of the Native Land Court, which he

described in 1880 as the 'source of all their troubles' and its replacement with a 'Maori

Tribunal’.394

The political position of Te Raki chiefs had, by the 1880s, moved emphatically against

the Native Land Court. Often voiced as part of wider movements, their demands for a

fundamental change in the land titling and purchasing system were largely ignored by

the Crown. But these political actions did have practical consequences in Te Raki. They

were an integral part of a multi-faceted attempt by Te Raki Maori to retain control over

391 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 998 392 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 863 393 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1004 394 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1003

168

their remaining lands and to find a way out of the problems associated with the Native

Land Court. We turn now to another part of that attempt.

3.7.2. Komiti and Runanga By the early 1880s, a range of unofficial Maori committees and runanga in Te Raki were

attempting to adjudicate on land titles (and other matters) and, in doing so, to remove

the influence and problems associated with the Native Land Court. The central problem

these committees faced was their lack of legal power. If any of those involved were

dissatisfied with the decision, they could apply to the Native Land Court and receive a

legally binding title determination.

This problem affected even those committees that were eventually sanctioned by the

Government. From 1880, Hone Mohi Tawhai led the battle to have the Crown recognise

and empower Maori committees. Supported by other Maori members of Parliament, he

drafted a bill proposing that elected committees be established throughout the country

with the:

authority to inquire into disputes arising in the district in connection with the surveying of land, applications for the investigation of title to lands, and the sale of lands upon the application of the persons involved in the lands under dispute.395

Despite support from Te Raki and other Maori, the bill was resisted by the Crown before

a weakened version was enacted. The Native Committees Act 1883 allowed officially

recognised committees to investigate titles but only in order to provide information for

the Native Land Court. The Court remained in control of the titling process and could

accept or, as proved to be more common, reject the recommendations of the

Committees as it saw fit.396

Nonetheless, Tawhai and other Te Raki Maori sought to make a success of the limited

opportunity available to them. Tawhai was appointed chairman of the Bay of Islands

Native Committee, while an officially recognised Kaipara Native Committee was also

established. These committees battled against lack of resources and the fact that many

395 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1012 396 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1015-1016

169

Maori in the area preferred their own local committees and to stay as far removed from

the Crown on land title matters as possible. Kawiti, Taiwhanga, and Tuhaere were

among those who considered the 'official' committees to be assisting rather than

offering an alternative to the Court process and called for them to be avoided.397

The official committees were not without their supporters or their successes. The Bay of

Islands Native Committee claimed in 1887 to have resolved a number of difficult cases

in Kaikohe to the approval of all those involved.398 Tawhai appealed to the Government

for more power for the Committee, including for the Court to simply rubber-stamp its

decisions. This was refused. Increasingly ineffective, official Native Committees, in the

words of Armstrong and Subasic, 'petered out’.399

While historians such as Vincent O'Malley have judged the official Native Committees to

have been a 'signal failure', the unofficial committees had a somewhat longer

lifespan.400

For the rest of the nineteenth century, they helped keep considerable parts

of Te Raki out of the Native Land Court system. Their lack of legal power meant that

they were always threatened and sometimes thrust aside by the Court. Nonetheless,

they were influential in Te Raki, especially in areas where opposition to the Native Land

Court was most strongly organised and led. They also played a role in parts of the

inquiry district where there was less pressure from Crown and private purchasers, and

with little history of interaction with the Native Land Court.

The most prominent of these unofficial groups appears to have been the Committee of

the Treaty of Waitangi (Te Komiti o Te Titiri o Waitangi). Established in 1881, and

backed by Kawiti among others, it carried out a variety of functions, including the

investigation of land titles.401

a feeling of unrest and dissatisfaction pervades the Maori mind. In connection with this Treaty of Waitangi a committee has been appointed

In 1884, the Mangonui resident magistrate, H W Bishop

reported that:

imbued by general consent with large judicial powers, and members travel around the northern districts, adjudicating in cases of every description. Some decisions of a most extraordinary character have been told to me, but the Natives appear to invariably manage to ultimately settle the disputes by mutual consent, and they loyally uphold and carry out the dicta of these curiously-composed tribunals.402

It and other non-Crown sanctioned committees continued to operate during the brief

lifespan of the officially recognised Bay of Islands Native Committee. Unofficial

committees were especially powerful in the Rohe Potae established under the authority

of Maihi Paraone Kawiti in the Motatau area. As discussed below, the Native Land Court

was banned from this area which relied on its own committees and institutions to settle

land matters. When disputes did break out, Kawiti sometimes used 'outside' Maori

committees to adjudicate, including the Committee of the Treaty of Waitangi and a

committee headed by the Ngati Hau leader Eru Nehua.403

The central attraction of these unofficial committees was also their central weakness. Te

Raki Maori like Kawiti valued the committees because they were distinct from the

Native Land Court, but their exclusion from the official system made it possible for their

decisions to be ignored and encouraged local Maori to use the Court.

As a result, the influence of the unofficial committees seems to have risen and fallen in

Te Raki during the 1880s, although they never ceased completely. By 1889, it was

reported that the Committee of Treaty of Waitangi was 'fully revived'.404

the native opinion generally [favoured] the stoppage of individual dealings with land and in place thereof appoint native committees with a Government officer to settle the question of boundaries and the titles of land, disputed cases to be referred to some Court for determination.

It and the other

local committees received a boost with the establishment of the Rees-Carroll

Commission into the Court and the Native Land Acts. The Commission was involved in a

number of hui in Te Raki during April 1891 where they encountered overwhelming

criticism of the Court and equally overwhelming support for Maori committees. After

the hui at Waimate North, it was reported that:

405


403 Clayworth, 'A History of the Motatau Block c.1880-c.1980', draft, 21 June 2016, pp 25, 27 404 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1024 405 Horsley, A57, p 78

171

As discussed below, some Te Raki leaders believed that the Commission would lead to a

radical extension of the powers of Maori committees. As a result, they strengthened

their efforts to keep their land out of the Court. These hopes for an alternative to the

Court were not to be realised, at least until the short-lived experiment of the papatupu

block committees in the early twentieth century.

Instead, as the following case studies illustrate, the unofficial committees were up

against the Court's monopoly power over legal titles and the hostility of the Crown.

Sometimes, as in the case of Te Pupuke (2,363 acres), on the south-western side of the

Whangaroa Harbour, even the staunchest opponents of the Court were forced to give

way. As Horsley discusses, Te Pupuke was an important piece of customary land, the

site of the local papakainga, and possessed valuable food sources and some suitable

areas for cultivation.406

Most surrounding land had gone before the Court. Given the disputes between Taniora

Arapata on one side and Hare Hongi Hika and Paora Ururoa on the other, it appeared

that Te Pupuke would be next to be taken to the Court. However, in 1882, Hika and

Ururoa withdrew their application for a Court hearing on Te Pupuke and referred the

case to the Committee of the Treaty of Waitangi. Taniora agreed and played a full role in

the Committee's investigation, which took place at Papakanui, a pa site on Te Pupuke in

1884.407

A committee of chiefs, headed by Wiremu Katene, heard the case, which lasted for two

days. There is limited and conflicting evidence regarding what the Committee decided

but the relevant point for our discussion is that their decision did not hold. In 1885,

Taniora Arapata was back in the Native Land Court at Mangonui. His opponents, led by

Hare Hongi Hika, Paora Ururoa, and Mita Hape refused to take part, staging a walkout

with their supporters just before the hearings opened. Their opposition to the Court

proved costly. Taniora Arapata presented the majority of the evidence to the Court and

406 Horsley, A57, p 70 407 Horsley, A57, pp 72-73

172

was at the head of a group of 66 that was awarded Te Pupuke West.408

Those who had

refused to attend the Court were excluded from the title.

With the death of Hongi Hika, Mita Hape and Paora Ururoa led the attempts to have

their rights over this land recognised. They were stuck in a bind familiar to Te Raki

Maori leaders such as Te Hemara Tauahere and Paora Tuhaere, who organised but then

abandoned a boycott of the Native Land Court in Kaipara in 1885.409

Mita Hape and

Paora Ururoa wanted to avoid the Court but could not easily sit back and allow the land

to be awarded to their rivals.

Their first move was to appeal to Parliament for help, but the Native Affairs select

committee thrust the issue back to the Native Land Court who ordered a rehearing.

After considerable delays, the rehearing was scheduled to open on 17 June 1891. Hape,

Ururoa, and their supporters repeatedly wrote to the Court asking that the rehearing be

abandoned and the case be adjudicated upon by a Maori committee. They were

optimistic that the recent Rees-Carroll Commission would result in these committees

having real authority. One of their letters stated:

This is to inform you that the Land Court at Whangaroa has been made of none effect concerning Te Pupuke and other lands of ours at Whangaroa on account of the burdensomeness of the (Native) land laws. The words of the Commissioner [Rees and Carroll] have reached us (requesting) that any observed evil (working) of the NLCourt should be made public. Enough, the right methods have been shown by the Native people to the Commissioners. The Commissioners have said that a Native Committee will be set up to adjudicate on Native Lands in the immediate future, therefore we have agreed to this at the present time. Therefore for the present our lands are being withheld. Enough, do you all remain away and not waste time.410

But the Native Land Court process, once set in motion, was often impossible to stop. The

Court ignored the requests and the rehearing went ahead. At the opening of the case,

Hape again pleaded for the rehearing to be abandoned as 'the natives have decided after

several meetings not to bring this case before the Court.' The Court refused, and after a

408 Horsley, A57, p 75. The Court did not issue title for the eastern part of the block at this time. 409 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 868, which suggests that the boycott was abandoned out of respect for Judge Rogan 410 Horsley, A57, pp 78-79

173

lengthy discussion with his supporters, Hape decided that he could no longer stand

aside from the Court. The rehearing was concluded and the Court had triumphed over

its opponents. Horsley's report details the subsequent fragmentation and alienation.

Today, only 38 per cent of it remains Maori land.411

In other areas, Te Raki Maori were able to use unofficial committees to keep land out of

the Native Land Court system for the rest of the nineteenth century. As Anthony Patete

writes, Whangaroa Maori preferred to have the Committee of the Treaty of Waitangi,

rather than the Native Land Court, adjudicate over land in Matauri Bay, north of

Kerikeri and east of the Whangaroa Harbour. This area was known for its isolation from

Crown authority and saw little Native Land Court activity during the nineteenth

century.

In 1884, there were two Committee of the Treaty of Waitangi hearings over the Matauri

block: one at Ohaeawai and the other possibly at Te Ngaere.412 The evidence of these

hearings is sparse although we know a little more about the Committee's inquiry into

nearby Motukawa (Motukawananui) island and other Cavalli Islands from 2 to 7 May

1890. These investigations appear to have been rather more detailed than most Court

hearings in Te Raki during the nineteenth century, although they resembled the Court in

some facets. The three-member committee, chaired by Paki Wi Hongi, conducted its

inquiries at Matauri and Ohaeawai. Four main claimants were involved, and there was

considerable evidence taken regarding whakapapa and customary rights to land,

including tuku and raupatu, as well as contemporary issues involving a leasing

arrangement with a Pakeha. Hearing fees were charged and thorough minutes (in Te

Reo Maori) were taken, which included a listing and description of important sites on

the island.413

411 Horsley, A57, p 105 412 Anthony Patete, 'Matauri', a report commissioned by the Waitangi Tribunal for the Wai 1040 inquiry, April 2016 draft, pp 99-100 413 Patete, ’Matauri’, April 2016 draft, pp 436-443

174

Little is known about the practical ramifications of the Committee's decision or what it

suggested about Maori ideas regarding land tenure in this period. Later evidence

suggests that the Committee awarded four main claimants a quarter of Motukawa

Island, and a number of smaller islands to one claimant. It would appear that these

awardees then provided a register of the names of those whom they were representing

and would be included in the award.414

But what is striking is that there was no attempt

to re-litigate this decision in the Native Land Court. The claimants and others with

connections to Matauri continued to prefer alternatives to the Court, and would be

deeply involved in the papatupu block committees established in the early twentieth

century.

3.7.3. Where the Court could not go: The Rohe Potae The establishment of a Rohe Potae over a considerable area within the Bay of Islands

and Whangarei sub-regions was a key development in the growing resistance to the

Native Land Court. Peter Clayworth's upcoming report will discuss this Rohe Potae,

established under the authority of Maihi Paraone Kawiti, in which surveys, the Native

Land Court, and land sales to Pakeha were banned.415

The Rohe Potae included what would become the Motatau block (approximately 89,500

acres) and adjoining areas inland of the Bay of Islands, to the south of Kawakawa,

Moerewa, and Kaikohe. With the loss of coastal land to the Crown and Europeans, this

was from the 1870s an increasingly important population centre for Ngati Hine, Ngati

Kahu, and related iwi/hapu. Waiomio was a main residence for Kawiti and the site of

economic development. The local economy revolved around farming, gum digging, and

timber logging. Maize and potatoes were cultivated, and sheep, pigs, horses, and cattle

were imported. Land for grazing and cultivation was cleared, while throughout the area

waterways, bushes, and swamps provided important resources.416

414 Patete, ’Matauri’, April 2016 draft, p 443 415 Clayworth, ‘A History of the Motatau Block c.1880-c.1980’, draft, 21 June 2016 416 Clayworth, ‘A History of the Motatau Block c.1880-c.1980’, draft, 21 June 2016, pp 20-21.

175

Despite, or perhaps because he had participated in many Court hearings and land sales

in the wider region, Kawiti was determined to keep this area under communal control.

Inspired by events elsewhere in the North Island, Te Raki's Rohe Potae received

widespread support from Maori and proved to be the most effective single bulwark

against the Native Land Court in the inquiry district.

As early as 1872, Kawiti and other chiefs were planning to establish an area in which

communal control would be protected from the Native Land Court and Crown purchase.

In late 1874, after considerable hui, the boundaries of the Rohe Potae were established:

'including all its [Waiomio's] boundaries and the Motatau range as far as the Hikurangi

range.'417

The area was under Kawiti's overall authority and was divided into four

sections with each section controlled by a group of representatives who held the land

on behalf of larger groups of people. Kawiti was careful to inform the Crown, Europeans,

and other Maori about the boundaries of the Rohe Potae and its guiding principles.

The first decade of the Rohe Potae saw the communal economy grow, especially around

Waiomio. Kawiti leased gumfields to Maori and Pakeha (and sold land elsewhere), using

the proceeds for a variety of projects, including building the Titiri o Waitangi meeting

house, a flax mill, and a storehouse for gum.418

There were carefully controlled leases

and timber milling elsewhere in the Rohe Potae, with title and other matters decided

through local committees.

In 1885, a challenge to the autonomy of the Rohe Potae and Kawiti's authority broke

out. It revolved around a dispute between the young chief Wiki Moeanu and Kawiti over

land in Waiomio. A Maori committee, chaired by an outside leader, the Ngati Hau chief

Eru Nehua, investigated the dispute and ruled in favour of Kawiti. The disgruntled Wiki

Moeanu made known that he would seek a survey and Native Land Court hearing over

the land. Kawiti's response was emphatic. He reminded the Native Minister, John

Ballance, of the boundaries of the Rohe Potae and warned that no surveys, land courts,

or sales would be tolerated.419

176

In March 1886, Wiki wrote to the Native Minister and requested Crown support for a

survey and Court hearing. Ballance, aware of the hostility towards the Court, did not

attempt to force a title hearing against the will of the Rohe Potae and its leader. Rather,

he proposed to Kawiti three ways to end the dispute with Wiki: Kawiti could apply for a

Court hearing himself, have a Crown-sanctioned Native Committee rule, or refer it to

arbitration.420

Kawiti refused all three, calling for the non-Government sanctioned Committee of the

Treaty of Waitangi to adjudicate on the matter. When this proved unacceptable to the

Native Minister, and with Wiki continuing to demand a Court hearing, Kawiti agreed to a

compromise. Henry Tacy Clarke of the Native Department, and two Maori arbitrators,

one each nominated by Kawiti and Wiki, would hear the disputes. Between 100 and 150

Maori gathered to hear proceedings in November 1886. Despite Clarke's assertion that

the final decision would have the same weight as a Native Land Court ruling, the

arbitration had no legal effect.

However, to the satisfaction of many local Māori, the arbitration did acknowledge the

autonomy of the Rohe Potae and the authority of Kawiti. The arbitrators stated that the

land under dispute was customary title and ruled that Kawiti, as a paramount chief, held

unquestionably stronger rights over it than an individual such as Wiki. The arbitrators

admitted that things would be very different if the land came under the Native Land

Court, but here Kawiti's mana remained intact.421

The ruling was widely publicised by supporters of the Rohe Potae, with hui reasserting

the area's independence and reiterating the ban on the Court and land sales. Even after

Kawiti died in 1889, the Court was kept out of the Rohe Potae. Following Kawiti's death,

Wiki returned to the area and again asked for the Crown to survey Waiomio in

preparation for a Court hearing. He was rebuffed, as Crown officials reluctantly

accepted that opposition to the Court in the area remained overwhelming.422

177

As discussed in the following chapter, the Rohe Potae around Motatau and the ban on

the Native Land Court remained intact until 1900. It was the biggest area of customary

land within Te Raki and at the heart of the largest area of Maori-owned land within the

inquiry district.423

This Rohe Potae, and the other Maori-owned lands in Te Raki that

remained outside the Crown's tenurial system, were telling proof that resistance to the

Native Land Court was both powerful and, against considerable odds, influential.

4. Chapter Four: Continued Maori Resistance and

Renewed Crown Purchasing in the 1890s

4.1. Introduction Maori opposition to the Crown's titling system, which became a force in Te Raki during

the 1880s, strengthened further in the 1890s. This chapter examines attempts by local

Maori to avoid and replace the Native Land Court. During this period, Te Raki resistance

to the Court had some noteworthy successes. The amount of new land being passed

before the Court decreased and some local communities were able to keep significant

areas in communal, customary tenure.

Nonetheless, the Court system continued to have a multi-faceted and vital impact on Te

Raki. Land owned by Maori under the Court system was increasingly fragmented with a

proliferation of subdivisions, succession cases and survey costs. The inability of Te Raki

Maori to gain economic benefit from their interests in Court-titled land left them

vulnerable to the resurgence in Crown purchasing in the area from 1893. Indeed, the

1890s saw the Crown develop new expertise in exploiting Native Land Court processes

to secure Maori land in Te Raki.

4.2. Keeping Land out of the Court: The Slowing of New Title

Determinations By the 1890s, the spread of the Native Land Court into Te Raki had slowed considerably

as resistance by Te Raki Maori to the Crown's tenurial system and purchasing

strengthened. Of the four chronological periods used for this report, the 1890s saw the

least amount of land and blocks titled by the Court. During this decade, title

determinations involving 61 new blocks and 41,427 acres were completed. While this

was not an insubstantial amount of land, it represented a marked decrease compared

with previous periods. Excluding areas titled at an unknown time, only 5 percent of

Maori-owned land in Te Raki in 1865 was passed through the Court in the 1890s. Just

6.4 percent of the blocks established by the Court in Te Raki were created during this

period.

Table 29: Number of known blocks and acres titled by the Native Land Court in the 1890–1899 period, Te Raki inquiry district


The reluctance of Te Raki Maori to put their land before the Court that had begun in the

1880s was deepening. Indeed, the Court was becoming steadily less popular with Te

Raki Maori the more they knew of it. During its first 15 years, it appeared that the Court

would sweep away all customary title in Te Raki. Between 1865 and 1880, 69.8 percent

of Maori-owned land in the inquiry district, including 581,060 acres in 671 blocks, came

under the Court system. However, the mass land loss of the mid-1870s radically altered

Te Raki Maori attitudes towards the Court and to land sales. In the following two

decades, only 12.5 percent of land owned by Maori in 1865 was titled by the the Court

with 136 new blocks totalling 103,559.73 acres.

This slowdown in new titling meant that, by the turn of the century, Te Raki was one of

the rare areas in New Zealand that still had significant amounts of papatupu or

customary Maori land. At least 147,864 acres, or 17.8 percent of known Maori-owned

land in 1865, remained in customary tenure (see the table above).424

424 Note that land titled at unknown periods is excluded from these calculations; Paul Hamer and Paul Meredith, '"The Power to Settle the Title"?: The Operation of Papatupu Block Committees in the Te Paparahi o Te Raki Inquiry District, 1900-1909' Waitangi Tribunal, 2016, Wai 1040, A62, p 2, suggests the amount of customary land at 1900 may have been considerably higher.

Graph 35: Proportion of known acres titled/remaining to be titled by the end of 1899, Te Raki inquiry district and sub-regions

The slowdown in the Court's progress was seen in the inquiry district's three largest

sub-regions. Relatively speaking, there was something of a spike in Court activity in the

Bay of Islands sub-region during the 1890s. In this period, it was the sub-region with

the most blocks and most land passing the Court. The Court established 26 new blocks

including 15,906 acres, the most of any sub-region. Nonetheless, the Bay of Islands

continued to be the sub-region in Te Raki with the highest proportion of customary

land. Approximately 45,419 acres, or 27.5 percent, of known customary land in 1865

remained outside the Court system in 1900.

Whangarei, by far the largest of the sub-regions and the area with the most known land

in customary ownership in 1890, saw the most dramatic slowdown in Court action.

During the 1890s, the Court awarded title to 19 mainly small blocks totalling 10,494

acres. This represented just 3 percent of this sub-region's customary land in 1865. This

turning away from the Court meant that, in 1900, Whangarei retained the largest

amount of customary land (at least 51,414 acres) of the five sub-regions. While vast

areas had been titled, 14.7 percent of Maori land in 1865 had been kept out of the Court

system.

The Court's titling in the Hokianga sub-region also continued its downward trend.

Between 1890 and 1899, the Court established just nine new blocks. However, these

few blocks totalled a substantial 13,538 acres. By 1900, the Court had had a massive

impact on all parts of Te Raki, including Hokianga. Customary land in this sub-region

had dwindled to around 17,973 acres, with 82.5 percent of Maori-owned land in 1865

subsequently clothed in Court title.

Perhaps helped by its strong resistance to Crown purchasing during this period, the

Whangaroa sub-region saw little new titling in the 1890s. During the 1890s, the Court

did establish seven new blocks but they encompassed only 1,488 acres. This meant that

only 2.2 percent of Whangaroa’s customary land in 1865 was passed before the Court in

the 1890s. At the turn of the century, Whangaroa Maori retained about 16,912 acres of

customary land, 24.8 percent of the total they are known to have possessed in 1865

before the Court was introduced into Te Raki.

Mahurangi remained an outlier among the sub-regions. No customary land was titled

during this period because nearly all the Maori-owned land in the area had already been

titled and purchased. More than 95 percent of Maori-owned land in 1865 had gone

before the Court by the beginning of 1900 and fewer than 2,400 acres of customary land

remained.

4.3. Opposition to the Court Opposition by Te Raki Maori to the Court system was a key reason for the downturn in

new title determinations in the 1890s. This hostility, which was widespread in the

1880s, grew during this decade as the Court was linked to another wave of Crown

purchasing in the area. Many Te Raki Maori were critical of the day-to-day effects of

interaction with the Court, including the expense and confusion that had become

endemic to the process. More importantly still, they now disapproved of the entire

184

Court system and saw it as an intrinsic part of the land loss, poverty, and

disempowerment that afflicted them.

As Nicholas Bayley writes, by the 1890s, even some Crown officials were acknowledging

that participation in the Native Land Court process and land sales had not advanced the

'economic security and development of Te Raki Maori’.425 Despite the easing of the

nationwide depression in the mid-1890s, they remained impoverished and dependent

upon on gum-digging.426

the Native Land Court served to proliferate ineffective individual land title and decimate authority structures in a fundamentally uneconomic manner for Te Raki Maori. A particular legal construction of multiple land ownership refracted practically through increasing fragmentation, fractionation and succession, characterised the new regime.

There was little cultivation or land development and:

427

According to Bayley, perhaps the most serious problem was that the 'Native Land Court

regime precluded Maori from engaging with the emerging opportunities; opening up for

pastoral farming’.428

Throughout the decade, there were repeated calls by Te Raki Maori for the Court to be

abolished and komiti and runanga empowered to deal with land titling and

administration matters. This was the overwhelming view presented to the 1891 Rees-

Carroll Commission that was established by the Government to inquire into the

workings of the Native Land Acts. Te Raki Maori complained that the Court had

distorted their title and caused land loss, with Mary Tautari of Hokianga singling out as

an egregious example the awards in the 1870s to individuals who had received advance

payments from the Crown.429 At Kawakawa, Wiremu Pomare told the commission that

the 'whole of the Nga Puhi people condemn the Native Land Court’.430

425 Bayley, E41, p 96

At Waimate, Hone

Heke Ngapua (Hoani Ngapua Tuhirangi) expressed the 'consensus' view:

426 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1256-1274; Bayley, E41, p 85 427 Bayley, E41, pp 86-87 428 Bayley, E41, p 87 429 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1181-1182 430 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1180

185

that there should be native Committees to settle the trouble between the people, and the chiefs of Ngapuhi have decided that should be the means of settling the disputes of all sorts.431

The Rees-Carroll Commission reported that, during their inquiries throughout the North

Island:

The unanimity of the Natives was not merely negative and condemnatory of the past and present – it was also displayed in their wishes for the future. Everywhere they gave substantially the same evidence as to the desire of the tribes regarding the future management of their land. Titles they believe can be found and determined, boundaries can be settled, and lists of owners prepared, by the Maoris themselves, leaving only a few disputed cases to be determined by the Court.432

In 1900, Hone Heke Ngapua, who was the Northern Maori Member of Parliament,

wearily remarked on the many fruitless petitions sent to Parliament over the years by

his constituents who had a 'very strong objection to the Court' for its 'distortion of

Native Customs' and its 'enormous expense’.433

Armstrong and Subasic discuss how anti-Court sentiment in Te Raki was reflected

through involvement in the Kotahitanga movement, which advocated a 'system of dual

authority in New Zealand' and, most immediately, the abolition of the Native Land

Court.434

Cease to sell or lease the land. Neither pass it through the Court, subdivide, nor define individual shares from the commencement to the present. If you will be brave and patient for one year then at last will you reap some reward, insomuch as the bad laws enacted by the present Government for the native people will fail.

Kotahitanga-inspired boycotts of the Court were carried out in Te Raki and

throughout the North Island. In 1895, its representatives issued a call to all Maori:

435

In the 1890s, Te Raki Maori were able to keep most, although not all, of their remaining

customary land out of the Court system. In 1891, a scheduled sitting was abandoned

when claimants refused to attend due to the distance they had to travel and because

431 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1185 432 Bayley, E41, p 86 433 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1162 434 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 96 435 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1285

186

they were 'thoroughly sick of the whole business in connection with these Courts’.436

Resident magistrate (and sometimes Native Land Court judge and Crown purchasing

agent) James Clendon reported that virtually all the cases gazetted to be heard by the

Court at Kawakawa in April 1895 had been withdrawn or adjourned as the 'result of

Maori political agitation’.437 Few blocks of any size came before the Court at Whangarei

in 1900 because the 'old chiefs' objected to it 'being brought under European law’.438

Throughout the inquiry district, non-Government-sanctioned komiti, including the

Committee of the Treaty of Waitangi, continued to adjudicate on land and other

issues.439

Even after the death of Maihi Paraone Kawiti in 1889, the Native Land Court remained

shut out of the Rohe Potae established around Motatau. The exact size of the Rohe Potae

is not clear, but it included what became the Motatau 1-5 blocks, estimated at 84,425

acres and, it would seem, the Kaikou blocks, at over 18,400 acres.440

Moreover, much of

the land surrounding the Rohe Potae also remained in customary tenure, rendering this

the strong point of anti-Court activity within Te Raki.

In 1891, Maihi's successor, Hoterene Paraone Kawiti, gave evidence to the Rees-Carroll

Commission about the 'covenant' of the Rohe Potae that prohibited the Court, surveys,

and land sales. He produced a book containing agreements about land matters that local

committees had decided upon and commented that 'according to our Native way of

holding land we have no trouble, but with the Native Land Court there is trouble’.441

In February 1893, this 'covenant' was under some threat with talk that some Maori

would seek, with the Crown's support, a survey of Waiomio land. Hoterene wrote to

Native Minister Cadman warning that a 'survey will not be acceptable ... this will never

be agreed to’. Should a survey be commenced against the wishes of the leaders of the

436 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1283-1284 437 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1162 438 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1161 439 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1158-1160, 1162 440 Clayworth, ‘A History of the Motatau Block c.1880-c.1980’, draft, 21 June 2016, p 29 for Motatau estimates and Master Sheet of Blocks within the Inquiry District for Kaikou estimates. 441 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1180-1181

187

Rohe Potae, 'blood will be shed and the blame will be on the Government’.442

The

strength of Maori resistance meant that the Crown made no moves within the 1890s to

push the Court process into the Rohe Potae.

Without the Court system and the threat of land sales, Rohe Potae leaders were able to

carry out innovative attempts to communally develop the area. The local leaders of

Tautoro (the area that would become the Motatau 5 block) relaxed their prohibition on

cattle and sheep farming under pressure from a dynamic new figure, Kaka Porowhini.

Porowhini’s community at Orakau attracted others from outside the area, and his ideas

about communal farming and development were powerful. Sizeable dairy and sheep

herds were established, large areas were communally cleared for grazing, and Kaka

introduced a telephone system and later a diesel-driven milking machine. These new

economic efforts were supplemented by continuing flax and kauri enterprises within

the Rohe Potae, and communally controlled leasing of select areas to Pakeha.443

While anti-Court sentiment seems to have been common throughout Te Raki by the turn

of the century, remaining customary land was clustered in a few areas. By far the largest

was the area we have just discussed, the Rohe Potae and surrounding lands in the Bay of

Islands and Whangarei sub-regions. It included lands near Kawakawa and Kaikohe

running southwards and suggests that coordinated, geographically centred resistance to

the Court and land sales could make an impact, especially when it benefitted from

powerful leadership and a collective ideology.

Lands less attractive to Crown and Pakeha purchasers seem more likely to have stayed

out of the Court system. By 1900, there was a cluster of customary land around the

shores of Hokianga Harbour and in the south-eastern Bay of Islands down into

Whangaruru. This included what became the Whangaruru-Whakaturia block (1,340

acres), part of a small peninsula enclosing Whangaruru Harbour. Terry Hearn

characterises this area as rugged, isolated, and mainly forested, and it attracted little

442 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1159 443 Clayworth, ‘A History of the Motatau Block c.1880-c.1980’, draft, 21 June 2016, p pp 46-48

188

Crown purchasing pressure in the nineteenth century.444 Likewise, Anthony Patete's

report on Matauri suggests that the area of Whangaroa that remained under customary

tenure at 1900 had been largely ignored by Crown purchasing agents and indeed by

Crown officials in general.445

4.4. The Changing Activities of the Court During the 1890s, efforts by Te Raki Maori to shun the Native Land Court strengthened

and the amount of new land brought before the Court for titling dropped. Nevertheless,

the Court remained a critical element in Maori life and land. Crown purchasing during

this period generated an enormous amount of Court activity in terms of titling,

partitioning, surveying, and other matters. But the Court process during the 1890s also

had a far-reaching impact upon Te Raki land that the Crown did not acquire.

In earlier periods, the Court's predominant role in Te Raki was to award vast areas of

previously customary land to individual Maori. By the 1890s, the Court system had

largely, although not completely, supplanted customary title in the region. Communal

land use and life was gradually undermined as Maori-owned land under the Court

system was subdivided into ever smaller and less economically viable pieces.

The Court system was affecting not just land but a new generation of Maori. By the

1890s, many of those awarded interests in land in earlier periods had died and the

Court was awarding their interests to successors. The growth in partitions and

successions was a major reason why the Court was busier than ever in the 1890s in

terms of the amount of cases it was hearing. Specific statistics for Te Raki are not

available but the tables and graphs below indicate that the Court between 1865 and

1874 heard 422 separate cases in Te Taitokerau as a whole. In the 1890s, it heard 693.

Many of these new cases were small-scale and, considered in isolation, unremarkable.

But collectively, they further fragmented and individualised Maori land and

strengthened the hold of the Court system. The table and graph below highlight the

change in the nature of Court activities. Between 1865 and 1874, 93.4 percent of Court

cases in Te Taitokerau revolved around determining title. By the 1890s, just 22.7

percent of Court cases were title determinations. Partitions and succession issues, once

unusual, become commonplace with 266 separate cases recorded in the 1890s. They

constituted 38.4 percent of all Court cases in Te Taitokerau while other non-title

determination matters, often involving surveying matters, were the focus of a further 39

percent of cases.

Even newly-titled blocks were quickly sucked into a morass of additional Court activity

including partition hearings, successions cases, and survey debts. In 1894, Eru Nehua

led Ngati Hau's application for title over the approximately 5,700-acre Rotomate block

in the Whangarei sub-region. While they were awarded much of the block, counter-

claimants connected with Ngati Manu were awarded around 1,500 acres. This

prompted an appeal and a rehearing in October 1895, which largely upheld the original

decision. At this time, the block was subdivided into seven subdivisions with at least

182 different owners. This was only the beginning of the fragmentation of the block,

with numerous subdivisions created in the following years and, over time, sold to

private purchasers.446

The Native Land Court lacked the personnel and resources to efficiently administer this

complex, sometimes chaotic system. Armstrong and Subasic discuss the frustration and

protests of Te Raki Maori at the delays, postponements, and socioeconomic disruption

that were a feature of Court hearings during this period. The appointment of resident

magistrates to act as Native Land Court 'recorders' over non-contested partition and

succession cases relieved but did not remove these problems.447

The slowdown in titling limited, but did not prevent, a new wave of Crown purchasing

in Te Raki in the 1890s. During this decade, the Crown purchased 81,473.5 acres of Te

Raki land. While not at the same level as the land rush that began in Te Raki in 1875, it

still constituted a significant blow to the tribal estate and economic future of Te Raki

Maori. By the 1890s, they had already lost much of their land. Indeed, Armstrong and

Subasic argue that, as early as 1876, Maori in the inquiry region were dangerously short

of land and that every acre lost after that, including the 81,473.5 acres in the 1890s,

damaged their ability to engage with 'the new settler economy from a position of

equality.’448 The land losses of the 1890s only worsened the deepening poverty and

economic marginalisation afflicting Te Raki Maori.449

The Native Land Court system played a vital part in this land loss albeit in a new and

different way from the 1870s. The essential link between the Court and Maori land loss

remained the same. The Court issued legal title to individual Maori who could then sell

their interests without reference to the wider community. What changed was the

number of Maori in Te Raki being awarded interests in a given block and then selling

those interests. In the mid-1870s, blocks were awarded on average to less than eight

individual Maori. The number was lower still for those blocks purchased by the Crown.

As discussed, the Crown frequently purchased large areas awarded to a single or a

handful of owners. But by the 1890s, the Court was awarding blocks in Te Raki to more

than 55 owners on average. The most important purchases during this period involved

the Crown gradually acquiring the interests of hundreds of individual owners. Thus, a

new form of Court-inspired individualisation and land sales had taken hold. Native Land

Court title had created large groups of individual owners who lacked the ability to act as

a corporate whole.450 These individuals, as a rule, did not control their own distinct,

viable piece of land. They were tenants in common, stuck in what Alan Ward terms the

'pseudo-individualisation' of the Court system in which individuals could sell but not

individually utilise their interests.451

They often saw little way of deriving benefit from

their land except through selling their interests. The 1890s saw the Crown's purchasing

agents in Te Raki gradually and cumulatively acquiring numerous individual shares of

land. The Crown would then apply for the Court to define and 'cut out' these interests.

By this method, the Crown's acquisition of undivided interests turned into large, very

real additions to the Crown's estate.

The change in the number of title awardees/land-sellers was part of a broader shift in

the interaction between Crown purchasing and the Court process. It could be said that,

in the mid-1870s, Crown purchasing agents set the agenda and the Court followed.

Crown purchasing of the land often began before title determination, and influenced,

implicitly or explicitly, whom the block was awarded to. In many cases pre-hearing

negations between purchasing agents and a few would-be sellers, often accompanied by

advance payments, resulted in Court hearings in which large areas in Te Raki were

awarded to a single or a small number of individuals who quickly completed the sale of

land to the Crown.

The Crown's purchasing technique had changed by the 1890s, and so had its

relationship with the Court. However, the ultimate result of that interaction – Te Raki

Maori losing large areas of land without their clear communal approval – remained the

same. In the 1890s, the titling process came first and Crown purchasing agents followed

afterwards. Blocks purchased in this period had not been subject to pre-title

arrangements and advance payments. The title hearings were not just an attempt to

facilitate pre-arranged land sales. Instead, large numbers of Maori received title to land

450 The Native Land Court Act 1894, section 112, belatedly introduced a limited form of incorporation. This had little obvious effect in Te Raki during this period. 451 Ward, National Overview, vol 1, p 9

195

after often adversarial Court battles. While Crown agents already had their eye on some

of these blocks, they were content to wait until the titling process was complete before

they moved to purchase.

This new relationship between Crown purchasing and the Court was part of what Alan

Ward described as a 'streamlined and efficient set of procedures that proved highly

effective in alienating Maori land’. Most crucially, the Crown was empowered to

purchase undivided shares in Maori land and then apply to the Court to partition out its

share of the block. Used in much of the North Island in the 1880s, these new purchasing

techniques took hold in Te Raki in the 1890s. They were at the heart of the Liberal

Government's purchasing programme of that decade, which saw an estimated

2,729,000 acres of Maori land purchased nationwide by the Crown, and another

423,184 acres sold or leased to Europeans. Ward estimates that 28 percent of remaining

Maori land nationwide was alienated in the 1890s.452

Crown purchasing in Te Raki, as elsewhere, was motivated by a desire to transfer Maori

land, often considered unoccupied and unproductive, to Pakeha farmers and settlers.453

It would seem that the Crown was also keen to break down the few sizeable clusters of

customary land remaining in Te Raki, especially in the Whangarei sub-region. It

targeted some lands, such as Omaunu No. 2 and Parahirahi for their mineral resources.

As shown below, the dominant issue for Crown officials was often how to obtain

suitable lands at low prices. They exhibited less obvious concern about what these

purchases would mean for Te Raki Maori.

The Crown achieved most, although not all, of its purchasing goals during this period.

Most acquisitions were the result of the gradual, systematic acquisition of individual

interests. On occasion, the Crown was able to pick off each individual share and acquire

the entire block. More commonly, at least some of the owners would refuse to sell. The

Crown would then return to the Court and have its interests and the interests of the

non-sellers partitioned into defined areas. 452 Ward, National Overview, vol 2, pp 245-246; Paul Husbands and James Stuart Mitchell, 'The Native Land Court, Land Titles and Crown Land Purchasing in the Rohe Potae district, 1866–1907', Waitangi Tribunal, 2011, Wai 898, A79, p 231 453 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1144-1147

196

This purchasing and partitioning process led to substantial land acquisition by the

Crown, but left non-sellers in an invidious position. The portions awarded to them by

the Court were often neither economically viable nor, it would seem, advantageously

located. Non-sellers frequently had to pay costs for the survey of their subdivisions,

even if the partition process had been started by the Crown or by other Maori owners.

Nor did they, as a rule, come out with their own individual plot. Instead, they continued

to be joint tenants in common with other Maori albeit over ever-diminishing areas.

Moreover, the partitioning process made the remaining Maori-owned land less rather

than more secure. Crown purchasers would often return to acquire the areas awarded

to non-sellers or purchase some of their interests, thus setting off another round in the

cycle of Crown-initiated partitions, land fragmentation, and sales. The largest Crown

purchase in Te Raki in this decade was not in fact a single purchase at all. Barry Rigby

catalogues 29 separate Crown purchases between 1895 and 1899 within the Whatitiri

block in the Whangarei sub-region. As we shall see, this involved the Court carrying out

multiple partitions of seller and non-seller interests. The end result of this enormously

complex and literally divisive process was that the Crown acquired at least 15,670 acres

of the 21,362-acre block. While Maori retained around a quarter of the land, their

holdings were scattered into numerous small, isolated parcels hemmed in by Crown-

owned land.454

The overwhelming power of the Crown appears to have made it difficult for individual

Maori to protect their interests in these partition hearings. As discussed later in this

chapter, by August 1897, the Crown had purchased 53 of the 54 shares in Omaunu No. 2

(2,321 acres). Only one non-seller stood against the Crown. The Crown viewed her

refusal to sell as unreasonable and exhibited little concern for her future. Purchase

agent J S Clendon was instructed by his superiors to attend the Court and ensure that

the dissentient owner was not awarded land in a location that would hinder the Crown's

ambitions for the block. As Clendon subsequently reported, he was able to achieve this

quite satisfactorily.455

Figure 15: Parahirahi and other Native Land Court blocks at Ngawha

(Source: Waitangi Tribunal, The Ngawha Geothermal Resource 1993, (Wellington: Legislation Direct, 1993), Figure 2, p 23)

The case of Parahirahi suggests some of the dangers to Te Raki Maori of these partition

hearings and raises questions about whether the Court was sufficiently rigorous in

protecting Maori interests. Crown agents had unsuccessfully tried to purchase all the

shares in this block out of fear that non-sellers could be awarded areas incorporating

and near the Ngawha thermal springs that were sacred to Ngapuhi and much desired by

the Crown. They need not have worried. On 15 October 1894, a partition hearing to

divide Crown and non-seller interests was adjourned because many of the non-sellers

were too old to travel to the Whangarei courtrooms. The Court agreed to reschedule at

198

Kawakawa but the Crown warned that this hearing and the partition would go ahead

whether the non-sellers were present or not.456

While some non-sellers were indeed present at Kawakawa, the sellers were not. It is

questionable whether they were aware that the sale of their interests and the Court's

partitions could finish their legal connection to the springs. After 'exceptionally difficult'

discussions with the non-sellers, the Crown's representative, Gilbert Mair, was able to

secure an arrangement that satisfied the Crown but which has proved a continuing

source of grievance for Maori with connections to the land and the springs.457

The Court awarded 4,290 acres to the Crown, including nearly all the block's most

valuable parts such as four acres of the five-acre thermal springs area. The non-sellers

were left with land of little economic value, and Mair reported that he had convinced

them not to seek the land most desired by the Crown. The non-sellers’ portions included

land 'utterly unfitted for cultivations in any part’.458 The process had been so pressured

and problematic that the Court awarded to the Crown areas that included Maori kainga

and cultivations.459

The Court process failed to adequately protect the interests of Maori in other ways. No

reserves in Te Raki were issued from Crown purchases during this period.460 The Court

awarded title to many new blocks without alienation restrictions, and these blocks were

subsequently purchased. On the other hand, the earlier alienation restrictions it had

imposed were increasingly ineffective. This was at least partially a result of legislation.

In the late 1880s and 1890s, more than 15 provisions were enacted making it generally

easier to have alienation restrictions on Maori land removed or varied.461

remove or declare void, without the consent of the Maori owners, any restrictions for

the purpose of sale to the Crown.462

But during this period the Court seemed, at times, indifferent to the issue of whether the

Crown was attempting to acquire reserved or restricted land. For instance, in October

1896 the Court awarded the Crown 477 acres of Horahora No. 2 in the Whangarei sub-

region. Ann Beaglehole was unable to find evidence on why the alienation restrictions

on this block were overridden or of any Court inquiry into the matter.463 The Court in

1885 declared Parahirahi A and Parahirahi C, including areas encompassing the taonga

of the Ngawha thermal springs, subject to alienation restrictions. Despite this, the

Crown shortly afterwards began purchasing shares in the lands. Both Donald Loveridge

and Rose Daamen found no record that the issue of the restrictions was ever raised by

the Court in the following eight and a half years of Crown purchasing. Indeed, the Court,

without comment, witnessed Crown payments on the restricted land. In 1894, the Court

awarded the Crown interests in Parahirahi, including land restricted in 1885. In 1945, a

Native Land Court inquiry rejected complaints by Maori with connections to Parahirahi

about this issue on the grounds that it was standard practice in the 1890s for restricted

land to be acquired by the Crown without the restrictions being legally lifted. Loveridge

concurred that this was indeed a common practice.464

The Crown's land acquisition, and its new relationship with the Court, was shaped by a

raft of legislation. The Native Land Court Act 1886 made it legal again for the Crown to

purchase individual, undefined shares.465 The Crown's ability to apply to the Court to

partition out the interests it had purchased and determine them in a proportionate area

was re-established and extended by the Native Land Court Act 1886 Amendment Act

1888 and the Native Land Court Act 1894.466

462 Husbands and Mitchell, Wai 898, A79, pp 231-232

The latter Act also essentially re-

established Crown pre-emption. Pre-emption allowed the Crown to purchase land for

lower prices and restricted Maori ability to utilise the land, most notably by banning

leasing to Europeans – which many Te Raki Maori leaders considered was the only form

This issue is discussed in Waitangi Tribunal, The Ngawha Geothermal Resource 1993. 465 Ward, National Overview, vol 2, p 247 466 Williams, Te Kooti Tango Whenua, Appendix 7

200

of land alienation that should be allowed.467 The resumption of pre-emption had

another significant effect on Te Raki and the Court process. As private purchasers were

locked out of the market, the Crown had less incentive to issue advance payments

before title determination.468

Crown purchase agents proved highly skilled in taking advantage of the legislation and

the Court system – and of Maori economic needs and poverty – to acquire land. When

purchasing was about to begin, they would often contact the Court for lists of owners

and other useful information.469

The Survey Department also provided advice on how

much money should be offered for a block. The Crown generally set a maximum price

for a block based on a rate calculated in shillings per acre. Court lists were used to

ascertain what each owner's shares represented in terms of acreage and therefore how

much they should be offered. It is worth reiterating that the Crown generally purchased

undivided shares in land rather than distinct pieces of land. The Court had sometimes

defined the relative interests of the owners (i.e., what percentage of the land their

shares equated to) but it seems that, more commonly, relative interests were not

defined, and the Crown purchasers acted on the basis that the owners held equal shares.

The Crown purchase agents used the gathered information and local knowledge to

identify specific owners who they would target first, in an attempt to create a snowball

effect of individuals selling their interests. A common tactic was to deal initially with

chiefs and prominent figures in the Court process, both to buy their shares and to enlist

them to encourage other owners to do the same. This could have dramatic effects. As

discussed below, the Crown's purchase of Omaunu No. 2 block appeared to be

floundering until it gained the signature of the leading owner, Taniora Arapata.

It would appear that the Crown purchasing process during this period deepened

divisions between chief and community and encouraged rangatira to ignore their

traditional responsibilities. In order to enlist their support, the Crown paid some

leading owners higher prices for their shares and provided them with expenses and

free ranging entrepreneur, acting as middle man between the Land Purchase Office and his co-owners while at the same time taking a commission for his trouble.

The Tribunal has remarked, for instance, that during the Parahirahi

purchase the Te Uriohua chief Hirini Taiwhanga was a:

471

The desire of Crown purchasers to 'break the ice' with initial purchases from leaders

was especially strong in blocks with hundreds of owners. Te Awaroa No. 1 and Te

Awaroa No. 2 in the Hokianga sub-region had at least 227 owners. Crown purchase

agent C F Maxwell focused his initial efforts around Wiremu and Remi Te Tai,

'influential' owners whose example he believed would induce others to sell.472

Some of those chiefs who played a leading role in encouraging sales were personally in

need of money. The Te Parawhau chief Taurau Te Kukupa encouraged some of the key

Crown purchases and title determinations in the Whangarei district during this period.

Aged and unwell, he told the Crown that he 'had no money for his present support' and

was desperate to sell his considerable land interests and receive as much as money as

possible.473

But chiefs also helped the Crown buy land because they saw no other way to save their

people from starvation. As we shall see, many of the Court hearings and land purchases

in Te Raki during the 1890s centred on the poverty-ridden Mangakahia area. In

February 1895, Komene Matiu Te Aranui and Hore Mokena Wharepapa urged the

Crown to quickly buy the Tarakiekie and Oue No. 2 blocks. They wrote:

We have no money and our people have no stores & no food, the winter is coming on and Mangakahia is far from good roads, we do not wish our people to starve, we wish to sell our lands & buy food for them.474

470 Waitangi Tribunal, Ngawha Geothermal Resource Report 1993, pp 40, 45-6; Berghan, A39(f), p 110 when a 'principal owner' offered to sell the Crown the shares of a number of people.

202

The Crown also acquired shares and purchasing momentum by focusing on those who

did not live on the land or had been placed on the title only out of 'aroha'. Absentee

owners were sometimes among the first to sell their shares. Paihia Pukerewa and two

others complained to the Crown in 1892 that it was acquiring shares in Motukaraka

East from those who had been included in the title out of 'a feeling of pity and kindness'

and lacked true connection to the land.475 Successors named by the Court could expect

to be quickly approached by Crown purchasing agents.476

Impoverished or debt-ridden owners frequently approached the Crown offering to sell

their shares. The Crown would accept if it believed the shares to be the start of it

acquiring a worthwhile and sizeable piece of land. However, it generally did not buy just

a few shares as an end in itself, as it saw little economic worth in incurring the survey

and other costs of acquiring small areas.

However, the costs of the Court process bore most heavily on Maori. Te Raki owners

incurred considerable expenses and debt through surveys and attending hearings.

Another issue during this period was the rates that became chargeable on Maori land

once it had been titled. These debts accumulated and contributed to land loss. In 1897,

the 1,028-acre Motukaraka West A block in Hokianga was awarded to 99 Maori. To pay

for survey charges and hearing expenses accrued during this and a related case, the

775-acre Motukaraka West B was set aside to be sold by two trustees, namely the chief

surveyor and a leading owner.477

Survey costs commonly contributed to individuals selling their interests and were

another way in which the Court contributed to the Crown's land purchasing agenda. The

Surveyor General would apply to the Court for survey charging orders to recover

unpaid costs incurred by his department while surveying Maori-owned land. To ensure

these charges were paid, the Court placed survey liens on the land. Under the Native

475 Berghan, A39(d), p 342 476 Berghan, A39(e), p 99 477 Berghan, A39(d), pp 349-350

203

Land Court Acts of 1886 and 1894, accruing interest could be levied interest on unpaid

survey charges.478

Impoverished owners had few ways to pay off these debts apart from selling their rights

in the land. In April 1885, the Native Land Court awarded the Papakauri block (1,012

acres) in the Bay of Islands sub-region to well over 200 individuals. None of the owners

could guarantee payment of the necessary surveys, so the certificate of title was not

issued until 1887. It would seem that the Crown eventually carried out the surveys and

the Court issued a survey charging order and survey lien on the land. The owners,

individually and collectively, proved unable to repay this debt. On a number of

occasions, Papakauri owners approached the Crown requesting to sell their shares so as

to wipe out their part of the survey debt. On 10 July 1895, some owners wrote that they

would take a lower price for their interests so that they could avoid having to pay rates

on the land.479

The Crown repeatedly declined to buy their interests, acting on the Surveyor General's

advice that the Papakauri block was of poor quality and it was not worth the Crown's

time and money to laboriously approach the many owners. However, in 1894, Maori

requested that the Court partition the block. This both deepened Maori debt and

encouraged the Crown to acquire some of the subdivisions. Among the subdivisions

created were two distinct and equal blocks of 251 acres, each owned by just two Maori.

The owners were unable to pay their survey debts and in 1895 offered the Crown these

subdivisions, with the survey costs to be deducted from the price. The Crown, judging

that this would likely be the only way it could gain some advantage or repayment from

the survey debts, and noting that another subdivision in the area was of 'very fair

quality' with owners willing to sell, began attempting to buy parts of Papakauri, offering

two shillings per acre less the survey liens.480

Armstrong and Subasic provide a number of other examples of rates and surveys

contributing to land sales in this period. The Crown was initially uninterested in 478 Husbands and Mitchell, Wai 898, A79, pp 242-243 479 Berghan, A39(f), pp 109-110. The block was divided into two, with each part having more than 100 owners. 480 Berghan, A39(f), pp 108-113; Armstrong and Subasic A12, p 1152

204

acquiring the 3,226-acre Kaurinui No. 3 block. In 1899, a few of the block's 270 owners

approached Maxwell and asked him to reconsider. They were unable to pay the rates on

the block or their portion of the survey debt, which was £87 3s 9d plus interest. Having

judged in the circumstances that the land could be easily and cheaply obtained, Maxwell

was authorised to acquire the land for 2s 6d per acre with the survey lien deducted.481

Similarly, the Crown purchased the 1,106 acre Maraekura block in September 1895 for

£221 after deducting a survey lien of £72.482

4.6. Mangakahia No. 2 and Whatitiri The cases of Mangakahia No. 2 (13,987 acres) and Whatitiri (21,362), two of the largest

Te Raki blocks to be titled during the 1890s, reveal much about the connection between

the Court and Crown purchasing in this period. Despite requests by Te Raki leaders and

prospective land-sellers, the Crown refused to make advance payments or influence the

titling process in these blocks. Certainly, the Crown did encourage Maori to place these

blocks before the Court and, even before the hearings, had resolved to purchase them.

Nonetheless, it maintained a strict neutrality over the issue of which individual Maori

would be awarded the block.

Crown purchasing did not begin until title had been awarded to the blocks. The Crown's

purchasing agents then sought to acquire the interests of the hundreds of individual

owners. Their task was smoothed by the owners' poverty, Court-related debts, and

inability to reap economic benefit from these lands. Nonetheless, some owners refused

to sell. The Crown therefore returned, repeatedly in the case of Whatitiri, to the Court to

have its interests in the blocks defined and awarded. This programme of piecemeal

purchase and partition led to the Crown acquiring the vast majority of Mangakahia No. 2

and Whatitiri. Indeed, these were the Crown's two major purchases in Te Raki during

the 1890s.

The Court's 'pseudo- individualisation' of Maori title created the framework that Crown

purchasing agents so ably exploited.483

Moreover, Crown-initiated partitions created

small areas of non-sellers’ land that were economically unviable and surrounded by

Crown-owned areas. This resulted in further partitions and purchases that continued

throughout the twentieth century, with the Court dividing the remnants of Maori-owned

land in Mangakahia No. 2 and Whatitiri into ever-smaller pieces. These were often

acquired by individual Pakeha.

As outlined in chapter two, the broader Mangakahia region had been transformed by

large-scale title determinations and land sales during the mid-1870s. Nevertheless, a

483 Ward, National Overview, vol 1, p 9

207

few sizeable areas of customary land remained and by the 1890s antipathy towards the

Court and land sales was powerful.

This resistance came under great stress due to Maori poverty and the Crown's

purchasing push. In the early 1890s, Te Parawhau chief Taurau Kukupa approached the

Crown about selling large areas of land including what would become Mangakahia No. 2

and Whatitiri. This was a provocative move. There had long been sometimes violent

tribal and chiefly disputes over rights in the Mangakahia area, while Whatitiri in the

Poroti area to the east was also vigorously contested and contained important taonga

including the Whatitiri maunga and the Poroti Springs.

The Crown certainly wanted to see these lands titled and sold. So did the aged Taurau

who was in urgent need of money and had become intertwined with an ambitious land

agent from Whangarei, A R Cooke. Senior Crown officials in the early 1890s were

bemoaning the reluctance of Maori in the area to pass their land before the Court and to

enter into land sales. Cooke, to the appreciation of Native Minister Alfred Cadman, was

promising that he could arrange the purchase of interests in a number of large blocks,

including what would become Mangakahia No. 2 and Whatitiri, to be titled and sold.484

This, and the encouragement of the Crown, appears to have pushed some of Taurau's

rivals towards the Court. In 1893 and 1894, Premier Richard Seddon travelled through

the broader region explaining the Government's desire to settle Pakeha on 'barren and

untitled' Maori land.485

the time has come when we should no longer permit whole tracts of country to remain in a state of nature – unoccupied by yourself or by Europeans – simply lying in a state of waste. It is no good to the Natives. Although wealthy in land ... [you] are practically poor, living in a state of destitution.

He told Poroti hapu that land titling and sales would see their

poverty replaced by advancement and that:

208

By mid-1894, the Whatitiri and Mangakahia No. 2 blocks were being surveyed, and

often fractious preparations for Court hearings were under way. Quite clearly, at least

some of the main protagonists were seeking title in order to sell land. They repeatedly

asked for advance payments and Taurau promised that if he (and presumably his

supporters) were awarded the blocks, they would sell them immediately to the

Crown.487 In September 1894, chiefs of the Uriohua hapu requested an advance of £200

from the Crown on the 'surplus portion' of the Whatitiri block.488

The response from Native Purchase Department Under-Secretary Sheridan was

emphatic. The Crown would buy the blocks if the price was right, but it would not begin

negotiations until after the Native Land Court had ascertained title.489 Sheridan had

been advised by Surveyor General Percy Smith that the blocks contained some good

quality land although ownership had long been disputed and title was likely to be

contested. Sheridan therefore instructed his agents to be ready to negotiate as soon as

title was complete but not to offer advance payments, which would be ‘contrary to law

and would be regarded by the parties not participating in the advance as a want of

impartiality on the part of the Government.’490

Sheridan considered advance payments to be not only improper but also ineffective and

wasteful. He feared that the Government would lose large sums if it made advance

payments to Maori who, after Court titling, were not in a legal position to sell the land.

He stated that advance payments had lost the Crown much money in the past and had

therefore not been a feature of its purchasing policy since the late 1870s.491

The Crown

had instead developed, in Sheridan's view, a more effective way to acquire land, by

waiting until the Court issued title and then acquiring it.

The Crown therefore pursued a non-partisan stance as the hearings drew closer. Senior

Government ministers sought a 'neutral' ground for the Whatitiri hearings amid fears

209

that it might boil over into conflict.492 In January 1895, Taurau and others appealed for

Sheridan to approach the Court and recommend that Mangakahia No. 2 be granted to

them.493

Such an appeal may have been considered in the mid-1870s but there is

nothing to suggest that Sheridan entertained the idea in the 1890s.

Sheridan's conclusion that the Crown could acquire large amounts of land without

issuing advance payments or become intertwined in the titling process was borne out

by subsequent events. Around July 1895, the Court awarded Mangakahia 2A (5,000

acres) to 150 owners and Mangakahia 2B (8,987 acres) to 58 owners.494 Berghan's

block narrative does not provide much detail about the Court hearings but reveals that

the Crown, after title was issued, moved immediately and smoothly towards acquiring

individual interests. We have already seen that the hunger and poverty afflicting

Mangakahia at this time was leading to desperate efforts to sell land to the Crown. By

the winter of 1896, the school teacher at Oruoru was reporting that the 'unfortunate

people are actually starving for want of food!'495 Owners seem to have sold their

interests both to buy food and also to pay off their survey debts, which the Crown

carefully calculated and subtracted from the purchase price.496

By July 1896, all but 33 of the 208 owners of Mangakahia 2A and 2B had sold their

interests to the Crown. The pressure on the rest to sell was increased when the Crown

took action to stop non-sellers from generating income from the block though cutting

down timber. However, the non-sellers remained defiant and the Crown applied for the

Court to partition out its share of Mangakahia 2.497

In October 1896, the Court awarded the Crown Mangakahia 2A1 (4,225 acres) and

Mangakahia 2B1 (7,290 acres). In total these were 11,515 acres of the original 13,987-

acre block. The 11 owners of Mangakahia 2B who declined to sell were awarded

492 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1172-1174 493 Berghan, A39(d), p 48 494 Berghan, A39(d), p 48 495 Luiten, 'Mimitu-Ruarei: a local study', draft, September 2016, p 15 496 Berghan, A39(d), p 48 497 Berghan, A39(d), p 49

210

Mangakahia 2B2 (1,696 acres). The interests of the 22 non-sellers in Mangakahia 2A

were split into four separate areas totalling 772 acres.498

This was certainly not the end of the alienation and fragmentation of Maori-owned land

in Mangakahia No. 2. From 1900 onwards, the rump of the block belonging to Te Raki

Maori was repeatedly divided into ever-diminishing parcels. Many of these fragments

were then purchased or leased by Pakeha. According to Berghan's research, 18

fragments of Mangakahia 2 are currently Maori land. The largest, Mangakahia 2B2No

2F2B, is just over 253 acres. Most are considerably smaller.499

Crown purchasing in the Whatatiri block followed a similar if more complex pattern.

The first step was a lengthy title investigation hearing at Whangarei in November and

December 1894 that caused considerable socioeconomic disruption and saw the Court

award the block to four parties. The largest portions were awarded to those associated

with the case led by Taurau and Pouaka Parore on behalf of Te Parawhau and related

groups, and also to those associated with the 'Te Uriroroi' claim. By February 1895, the

Court had named hundreds of individual owners and defined how many shares they

held in the land.500

Crown purchasing began soon afterwards in a block that a Pakeha observer termed the

'best piece of volcanic land in the north’. Many of its Maori owners were reported to be

in 'poor circumstances' and short of food. Their economic position was further

threatened by the reintroduction of pre-emption, which had stopped their leasing of

parts of the block to Pakeha farmers, and by the costs of travelling to and residing in

Whangarei during the title hearing.501

In such circumstances, the small amount of

money offered by the Crown to each individual owner was no doubt tempting.

Nonetheless, it would take years of Crown attempts, Court hearings, and partitions to

undermine most of the opposition to selling in Whatitiri. By September 1895, the Crown

had been able to acquire the interests of just a few of the many owners. The Court 498 Berghan, A39(d), p 49 499 Berghan, A39(d), pp 50-56 500 Berghan, A39(h), pp 348-349; Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1175 501 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1174-1175

211

awarded the Crown three portions totalling 850 acres (plus a small portion Maori

provided for a school.) At the same partition hearing, the Maori-owned land in the block

was subdivided into 17 pieces. Some were relatively large but owned by hundreds of

individuals. For example, Whatitiri No. 13 was 9,588 acres and had 330 owners and

Whatitiri No. 12 was 5,720 acres with 103 owners. Other blocks were smaller and

owned by one or a handful of Maori.502 Three months later, further Court partitioning

and Crown purchasing radically reshaped the larger Maori holdings. In December 1895,

Whatitiri No. 13 was divided into almost 50 pieces, with one awarded to the Crown.

Around the same time, Whatitiri No. 12 was divided into 18 parcels, two of which were

awarded to the Crown.503

This set the stage for the Crown to step up its purchase of individual interests and non-

viable subdivisions. Despite years of endeavour by purchase officer Maxwell, the Crown

was never able to extinguish all Maori interests in Whatitiri. What it did achieve was the

purchase in stages of most of the block and the transformation of the rest beyond any

rational recognition. According to Rigby, 29 separate Crown purchases of Whatitiri

were gazetted between 1895 and 1899.504 Even this does not quite capture how drawn

out the purchasing process was and the absence of any collective decision by Whatitiri's

owners to sell the land. In 1899, Maxwell listed hundreds of separate payments he had

made to Whatitiri owners since 1897. These payments had taken place on 83 separate

dates. On some days, he purchased shares from a number of different owners. On other

occasions, he acquired interests from a single individual. The amounts he paid them

varied between £2 and £250.505

This process of buying up shares was so complex, and the Maori role in it was so

decentralised, that even the experienced Maxwell sometimes made payment errors. In

July 1898, he apologised to his superiors for making a mistake when copying the Court's

lists regarding the owners and their relative interests in Whatitiri No 13J. This had led

Maxwell to pay Eru Hiri just over £34 instead of the £27 he was 'entitled' to.506

212

The multiple purchases led to multiple Court hearings and partitions. Over time, the

Crown was awarded more and more parts of Whatitiri while the diminishing Maori

holdings became fragmented and isolated from each other. By 1899, non-sellers were

complaining that their holdings had been left in small pieces surrounded by Crown-

owned land. As Maxwell acknowledged, Crown purchase and Court awards had left

owners 'hemmed in by Pakehas' and desperate to exchange land so that they could have

coherent areas and kainga where they could live together.507 The Crown delayed

considering their request until the Court had completed partitioning out its interests.

Over five successive days in August 1899, the Court created at least new 55

subdivisions. Of these, 43 were awarded to the Crown, and 12 to Maori.508

By 1899, Crown purchasing in Whatitiri and in Te Raki as a whole was drawing to a halt.

The Court would continue in the twentieth century to further divide the diminishing

Maori holdings in Whatitiri. Fragmentation encouraged further purchasing, although

this was carried out by individual Pakeha rather than by the Crown. Berghan suggests

that today there are 30 separate parcels of remaining Maori land within the original

Whatitiri block, ranging from 124 acres to an acre or less in size.509

4.7. Kauaeranga and Ngaturipukunui The acquisition of the Kauaeranga (3,672 acres) and Ngaturipukunui (462 acres) blocks

were an exception to the general pattern of this period in which the Crown secured Te

Raki land through purchasing the individual interests of large numbers of owners. To

acquire these two blocks, purchase agents took belated advantage of the Court's titling

policy of the mid-1870s.

As discussed in chapter two, the Court in the mid-1870s regularly awarded large areas

of Te Raki land to a single Maori owner who then immediately sold or leased the land.

Many of these single awardees and vendors were prominent chiefs. There is not enough

evidence to say emphatically whether these title awards and subsequent transactions

were collectively supported by all those with customary rights to the land. Nonetheless,

in some cases at least, these chiefs had been selected by other Te Raki Maori as their

representatives or trustees on the title. Te Raki Maori were attempting to transform

individual title under the Court system into something that reflected their communal

and chiefly culture.

Legally, however, these individuals held the status of absolute owners and were entitled

to enter into transactions without the consent or approval of those they represented.

This ability to sell without consulting the wider group gave these chiefs – and, in the

particular cases of Kauaeranga and Ngaturipukunui, their legal successors –

unparalleled power. It also meant that the personal vulnerabilities and material needs

of a few individuals could lead, immediately or after decades, to the loss of large areas of

Maori-owned land.

On 5 July 1877, the Native Land Court awarded the prominent Te Parawhau-affiliated

chief Te Tirarau Kukupa sole ownership of the Kauaeranga and Ngaturipukunui (or

Turipukunui) blocks in east Pipiwai. The title determination was uncontested and

quick.510

510 Berghan, A39(c), pp 334-335

Around this time, Te Tirarau was being awarded title to a number of blocks in

the Whangarei sub-region, some of which he immediately sold to the Crown. However,

in this case, the Court hearing was not the prelude to a sale but instead was a way to

215

formalise a pre-arranged timber deal with a Pakeha-owned company. A few days after

receiving title, Te Tirarau signed a 21-year timber lease over Kauaeranga and

Ngaturipukunui. He received the proceeds for the timber lease, some of which, it would

seem, he distributed to others who held (non-legally recognised) rights to the land.

Certainly, some Maori with ties to the blocks considered Te Tirarau their representative

in the timber deal, and supported the title arrangement solely for that reason. They did

not, at least according to later letters and petitions, see Te Tirarau as the sole owner of

the blocks, on which many of them continued to live and cultivate.511

For some years, the leasing and titling arrangement seems to have gone according to

plan. Maori lived on and used the land with Te Tirarau handling the leasing

arrangements. When the chief died, the Court awarded the land to two of his relatives,

Taurau Kukupa and Tito Tirarau. According to subsequent claims, they too were seen by

other Maori as trustees for the timber deal and not as sole owners. They had apparently

been selected by the Te Parawhau and Te Uriroroi hapu to succeed Te Tirarau on the

title.512

But, by the early 1890s, Taurau was old, unwell, and in urgent want of money. The kauri

from the blocks had been largely cut, and the lease, while still technically in place, seems

to have no longer been profitable. Perhaps most fatefully, Taurau was involved with the

land agent A R Cooke, who was frantically trying to sell off as much of 'Taurau's land’ to

the Crown as possible. Neither the chief nor the land agent indicated to the Crown that

Taurau represented others, rather, he was presented as the dominant figure in the area

entitled to sell or make use of the land as he saw fit.

Cooke tried a number of gambits to entice the Crown to buy Kauaeranga and

Ngaturipukunui. He warned that if the Crown did not buy the land immediately, Taurau

would place it and other areas under the control of the Treaty of Waitangi Committee

and therefore out of the reach of the Court and the Crown. Conversely, Cooke promised

that if the Crown would buy these two blocks, and buy them quickly, Taurau would put

511 Berghan, A39(c), see for example p 341 and the letter by Hori Rewi and 65 others. 512 Berghan, A39(c), p 339

216

considerable amounts of other land through the Court – including what would become

the Mangakahia No. 2 and Whatitiri blocks – before selling them to the Crown.513

Taurau and Cooke's constant refrain to the Crown was that they needed to receive the

purchase money for Kauaeranga and Ngaturipukunui quickly. Cooke warned that

Taurau was unwell. The chief needed to be paid immediately or he would die before he

could survey, gain title to, and sell large areas of valuable land to the Crown. Taurau

stated that he 'had no money for his present support' and was desperate to sell.514

Sheridan, the Under-Secretary of the Native Land Purchase Department, was unmoved

by such considerations. His predominant concern was whether the purchase of

Kauaeranga and Ngaturipukunui blocks made financial sense for the Crown.

Another problem then emerged that the Crown – and the Court – would need to deal

with before the purchases could be completed. Some Maori lived on and cultivated these

lands and had become aware of the planned purchases. Taurau's grandson, Hori Rewi

and Hiri Te Taka, wrote widely supported petitions and letters to the Crown arguing

that the blocks belonged to the whole tribe. They claimed that the land had been resided

on by their people for eight generations up until the present and that they had no other

areas on which to live. The Court title was solely a way to arrange the timber lease; they

had never agreed that their 'trustees' owned or had the right to sell the land. They

demanded the sale be abandoned and that a new title be created that reflected their

ancestral rights to the land. In September 1893, Hori Rewi and 65 others told the Native

Minister that:

we are grieved on account of our children, the old women and the old men and also because of our sacred places, which are being sold by these Trustees and all our cultivations as well.515

On 3 October 1893, the chairman of Parliament's Native Affairs Committee

recommended that the Crown consider what could be done to assist the petitioners. But

before the inquiry had begun, the Crown took action which effectively undermined any

chance the petitioners had of continuing to live on and maintain control of their land.

513 Berghan, A39(c), p 341 514 Berghan, A39(c), pp 340-341 515 Berghan, A39(c), pp 341-342

217

Officials at this stage were determined to acquire the blocks. They seem to have given

no thought to abandoning the proposed transaction or delaying it until Parliament could

see whether others were entitled to legal rights in the land and a say in its fate. Sheridan

wrote to Cooke and stated that the Crown was willing to buy the blocks for £834, at four

shillings per acre. Half would be paid to Taurau and Tito Tirarau as soon as they agreed

to the sale. The other half of the money would be held until the results of the

Government inquiry into the claims of the wider tribe had been considered. If the

inquiry did indeed suggest that others had rights to the land, the held-over purchase

money would be paid to them.516

But the Crown saw no need to secure their consent

either to the sale or the price.

Although he would have preferred a higher sum and to receive all the payment, Taurau

was nonetheless anxious for cash and agreed to the deal. There was a brief delay while

the Crown, with the Court's help, sorted out two potential impediments to the

arrangement. Tito Tirarau, the other legal owner on the title with Taurau, had died and

no successor had yet been awarded his interests, while the timber company was

demanding compensation from the Crown for buying land that it was leasing. The Court,

however, rejected the timber company's claims. With Sheridan helping to expedite the

process, on around 18 December 1893 the Court appointed Huirua Tito, who was

willing to sell, to the titles.517 On that very day, the Crown purchased Kauaeranga and

Ngaturipukunui from Taurau and Huirua Tito.518 The Crown then wrote to Hori Rewi to

inform him that the blocks had been purchased but that half the proceeds were being

kept in case some of his supporters were entitled to a share.519

Parliament passed the Te Ngaere and Other Blocks Native Claims Adjustment Act 1894,

which required the Native Land Court to inquire whether any people, apart from the

two registered owners, had an equitable claim to Kauaeranga and Ngaturipukunui. On

29 November 1894, Judge Gudgeon ruled that 32 people were entitled to payment for

516 Berghan, A39(c), pp 339-343 517 Berghan, A39(c), pp 342-345 518 Berghan, A39(c), p 343; Rigby, A56, Appendix A, pp 1-2 519 Berghan, A39(c), p 344

218

each of the two blocks. He produced a schedule of the owners with their respective

shares and the amount of money they were entitled to.520

Hori Rewi made one last, forlorn effort to save at least a part of the blocks for those who

lived and had died on it. On 13 December 1894, he wrote to the Native Minister about

the 'grief of his people' over their land which had been sold by their representatives. He

stated that they had no other land and asked the Native Minister to 'take pity' on them

and at least grant them a reserve of 250 acres that included their settlement and burial

places.521

He seems to have offered to exchange the money awarded them by the Court

for this reserve.

I have seen no evidence that this reserve was granted. Instead, Maxwell, the Crown's

purchase agent, speedily paid out those named by the Court as entitled to a share –

many of whom were in Whangarei and anxious for money.522

It could be said that the

Court had, from 1877 to 1894, done what was expected of it by the Crown and by those

Maori who wished to sell or lease Kauaeranga and Ngaturipukunui. But what it had not

done was protect the rights of others who claimed a connection to these lands. It had

issued absolute title to a single and then two individual owners. And then, in 1893 and

1894, the Court had overseen the Crown's purchase of these lands. It had identified

those who should receive a small share of the proceeds of sales that they had not agreed

to.

Figure 18: The Omaunu No. 2 Block

220

4.8. Omaunu No. 2 The Crown's use of the Court titling system during the 1890s to acquire Maori land met

with significant opposition throughout Te Raki. Maori resistance was especially strong

in the Whangaroa sub-region. In the 1890s, this location saw little new titling and only

one Crown purchase.523

This meant that, at the turn of the century, Whangaroa Maori

retained a higher percentage of their customary land than Maori in any of the other sub-

regions. Nearly a quarter of Maori-owned land in 1865 remained outside the Court

system at 1900.

Nonetheless, Maori-owned land in Whangaroa that had been titled by the Court came

under pressure from Crown purchasing in the 1890s. The acquisition of virtually all of

the Omaunu No. 2 block is a telling case study of how the Crown could exploit its power

– and the individualisation of Maori land ownership – to gradually break down

resistance to selling and pay far less for the land than the owners sought.

Crown officials were well aware that there was considerable antipathy to land sales in

Whangaroa. In 1893, they had responded to the urgings of local settlers and politicians

and investigated buying large areas in the area. However, Maxwell's initial attempts to

acquire Omaunu No. 1 and No. 2, Kaingapipiwai No. 1 and No. 2, Otangaroa, and other

blocks were unsuccessful. In May 1894, he reported that the 'Natives are generally

averse to selling land' to the Crown and that the 'obstructionists' to sales were

influential men. Maxwell believed many would follow their example and purchasing

would be difficult.524

In September of that year he reported that the owners of the above-named blocks

'refused absolutely to sell any land at the prices I was authorised to offer’. One of the

main chiefs in the area, 'Paora Te Uruhau' (possibly Paora Ururoa), told Maxwell in no

uncertain terms that 'he had no land to sell to [the] Government’.525

523 Harris, E32, pp 228-236 discusses the seven small blocks in the Whangaroa sub-region in the 1890s.

Despite the

pressure of survey liens and other debts, Maori rejected the standard price offered by

524 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1150; Berghan, A39(e), p 92 525 Berghan, A39(e), p 92

221

the Crown in this area of 2s 6d per acre as woefully inadequate and considerably less

than what could be obtained if they were permitted to deal with private purchasers.

The Crown purchasing method throughout Te Raki during this period relied in large

part on patience. Crown officials believed that sooner or later some owners would come

forward and sell their shares and the land-buying process would roll on. There was

poverty in the area and Maori had few ways, except through sale, to make use of their

undefined interests. Maxwell was instructed to prepare ownership lists and deeds for

the various blocks and to be ready in case 'any shares are eventually offered’.526

For a year, the Crown made little or no headway in Whangaroa. But reports that a

'valuable copper lode' had been discovered at Omaunu brought the Crown – and the

Court – back into the area with new urgency in late 1894.527

Henceforth, the Crown's

purchasing efforts in Whangaroa would revolve around this block and especially around

Omaunu No. 2, believed to contain valuable metals and minerals.

One of the problems facing the Crown was that Omaunu No. 2 was not yet under the

Court system of individualised ownership. The entire Omaunu block had indeed gone

before the Court in 1885. Half of the block, Omaunu No. 1, was awarded to Hare Hongi

Hika and 33 others. The other half was awarded to Taniora Arapata, Hongi's rival in

many Court cases in the Whangaroa region. Taniora was dissatisfied with the decision

and for the better part of the decade refused to provide ownership lists.528

But the new possibilities and pressures on Omaunu brought Taniora Arapata and

Whangaroa Maori back to the Court. The need for clear legal title over the block seemed

particularly pressing given its sudden economic attractiveness and the fact that Crown

purchase agents and Pakeha entrepreneurs were showing interest in it. On 25 October

1895, the Court awarded Omaunu No. 2 (2,421 acres) to 54 Maori including Taniora. A

rehearing was ordered but the decision was upheld in the Appellate Court.529

526 Berghan, A39(e), p 92 527 Berghan, A39(e), p 93 528 Berghan, A39(e), pp 91, 94; Rigby, A57, chapter 3, for rivalry. 529 Berghan, A39(e) pp 91, 94

222

With title now finalised, the Crown's efforts to acquire Omaunu No. 2 moved into a

higher gear. Many officials believed Omaunu could be a centre of the mining industry,

and the Native Land Purchase Department was under pressure from 'very anxious'

Cabinet ministers to make progress.530 The first move of Maxwell, the Crown purchase

agent, was to contact the Court and find out more about the recent title decisions. He

wrote to each owner offering them 7s 6d per acre for their interests.531 He then sought

the support of Taniora Arapata. As Maxwell put it, Taniora was 'the leading man of the

Hapu interested [and] if he does not agree to sell there is very little chance of others

doing so’.532 However, Taniora Arapata would prove to be a major obstacle to the

Crown's purchase of Omaunu No. 2. The Crown tried hard to attract him, including by

gradually raising the price it offered for the block as a whole, but Taniora for a long

period rejected their offers. He had to repay debts to the Government and would not

consider anything less than £1 per acre for the block as a whole, a price the Crown

considered exorbitant.533

Taniora and other owners were exploring alternative ways to benefit from the block

apart from sale, negotiating with European businessmen and seeking to exploit the

land's resources themselves. Owners unsuccessfully sought loans from the Crown to

develop the land while rumours of a silver and gold find on the block saw prospecting

and excitement among Maori.534

With Maxwell unable to make any headway in his purchasing efforts, James S Clendon

was enlisted to help. Clendon rather symbolised the institutional and personal ties

between Crown purchasing and the Court during this period. He, like C Bush, served as

both a Native Land Court judge or 'recorder' and a Crown purchase agent in the area. At

one point, Judge Clendon was scheduled to adjudicate on which parts of Omaunu No. 2

block the Crown should be awarded, despite having helped to purchase the Crown’s

interests himself. The hearing was adjourned.535

530 Berghan, A39 (e), p 94 531 Berghan, A39 (e), p 95 532 Berghan, A39 (e), p 96 533 Berghan, A39(e), p 95 534 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1153; Berghan, A39(e), p 97 535 Armstrong and Subasic, A12, p 1154; Berghan, A39(e), pp 92, 100

223

Clendon was authorised to offer 10 shillings per acre, half the price that the owners

were demanding. For a considerable time, the Crown was able to buy only a few shares

here or there. In August 1896 it purchased the share of an absentee owner living in

Waikato.536

I do not think it would be politic to do anything of the kind [provide development assistance]. It would be better for them to sell their shares outright.

More Tukariri and five others wrote to the Crown declining to sell their

shares and instead requesting a loan of £120 to improve and utilise the land. The Crown

pointedly refused and resumed efforts to buy their interests. As Maxwell put it:

537

Nonetheless, Maxwell remained sceptical whether Omaunu No. 2 could be acquired in

such a piecemeal manner. Without Taniora's support, it was 'doubtful if much of the

block could be acquired' apart from an 'isolated share or two'.538

However, the Crown's legislative and economic power meant that Maori had few other

options. Sheridan and Maxwell pursued a strategy of attrition, confident that as Maori

economic hopes and 'gold fever' died down, so, eventually, would their resistance to

sale. There were growing signs that Maori were desperate to sell if the Crown would

meet their price. In September 1896, 'Taniora Ropata' (possibly Taniora Arapata) and

44 others petitioned the Government stating that they urgently required money for

their maintenance and support. They would sell the block for £1 an acre to either the

Crown if it offered or private purchasers if they were permitted. The Crown refused on

both counts, but raised its offer to 15 shillings per acre.539 Two more owners sold their

shares while others who had sold earlier at lower prices asked unsuccessfully to get the

full amount.540

At some point between December 1896 and May 1897, the opposition of Whangaroa

Maori to the sale of Omaunu No. 2 did indeed collapse. It is not clear when or exactly

536 Berghan, A39(e), pp 96-97 537 Berghan, A39(e), p 96 538 Berghan, A39(e), p 97 539 In September 1896, Sheridan seemed to indicate that Crown officers could gradually increase their offer to 20 shillings (i.e. £1) per acre 'if necessary'. However, this was apparently not acted on and the purchase agents believed they were contrained to offering no more than 15 shillings per acre. Berghan, A39(e), p 97-99 540 Berghan, A39 (e), pp 97-99; Armstrong and Subasic, A12, pp 1154-1155

224

how this happened. The signature of Taniora Arapata may well have been crucial. He

would later claim that he had agreed after being promised by Clendon a reserve within

the block. Rapi Arapata would likewise argue that the Crown was obligated to reserve

areas in Omaunu No. 2. The Crown's response was that no reserves had been promised

and none would be provided.541

By May 1897, the Crown had acquired the interests of 53 of the 54 owners of Omaunu

No. 2. It had paid them a total of £1,220, roughly half the price that owners had

consistently demanded.542 Only Hemania Pihama (or Pihema) had refused. She

continued to face considerable pressure. The Crown wanted the entire block and

labelled her an 'obstinate' obstructive woman who irrationally but 'absolutely refuses to

sell’. The Crown applied to have the Court partition out its interests but then had the

case withdrawn, hoping to pressure her to sell. She also applied for a partition. That

hearing was adjourned.543

By June 1897, the Crown would wait no longer. Sheridan repeatedly approached the

Native Land Court and asked for it to expedite the partition process. As he explained, the

Government was under 'pressure to throw open the land for mining and [the] Minister

enquires daily’.544

The soonest the Court could sit was August. In the meantime, the

Crown kept trying to buy Pihama's solitary share. She kept refusing.

Clendon represented the Crown at the partition hearing in Whangaroa on 18 August

1897. His role, as Sheridan instructed him, was to make sure that Pihama did not secure

her small portion of land in an awkward location for the Crown. He was advised to reach

an agreement with her out of court and avoid the prospect that she would appeal the

decision and delay the mining of the land. But, said Sheridan, if she continued to be

'unreasonable', the Crown 'would fight it out in the Court' with her.545

541 Berghan, A39(e), pp 103-105 542 Rigby, A56, Appendix A, p 3 543 Berghan, A39(e), pp 99-102 544 Berghan, A39(e), p 102 545 Berghan, A39(e), p 103

225

Clendon did his job and was able to convince the Court – and apparently Pihama – that

her portion should be placed in a 'satisfactory' position for the Crown. But the Crown

had not quite finished with using the Court process to acquire Omaunu No. 2. The deed

of conveyance was forwarded but Sheridan briefly delayed the survey of Pihama's

portion 'in case the old girl should alter her mind about selling’.546 She did not. A single

Maori woman, Hemania Pihama, had managed to keep just over 45 acres of Omaunu No.

2. It would remain in Maori ownership for another 70 years.547

The Crown had secured

the other 2,376 acres.

5. Conclusion Between 1865 and 1900, the Native Land Court irrevocably altered the lives and land of

Maori in Te Paparahi o Te Raki. These were the peak years for Crown purchasing of

Maori land in Te Raki, exceeding even the pre-1865 period. The Court, while not the

only factor in these acquisitions, presided over and helped to facilitate the radical

depletion of the Te Raki Maori tribal estate and the landlessness, or near landlessness,

of many of its communities. Its most important role in this land loss was that it awarded

title to individual Maori who were able to sell their interests without the consent of the

wider community.

While this remained a key factor throughout these years, the impact of the Native Land

Court upon local communities was far from monolithic or unchanging. This report

focuses on four chronological periods, each representing a different stage in the Court's

activities and its interaction with Te Raki Maori.

Between 1865 and 1874, the immediate impact of the Native Land Court on the inquiry

district varied considerably depending on locality. Many Te Raki Maori were initially

interested and to some degree involved in the Crown's new tenurial system. The reason

for this was only too apparent. The Native Land Court was – and would remain – the

only means by which they could gain legally recognised title to their land. By the end of

1874, well over a third of Maori-owned land in the inquiry district had been brought

under the Court system. More strikingly, the Court had awarded title to at least 469

blocks. In no subsequent period would Te Raki Maori seek Crown-derived title over so

many specific pieces of land.

The consequences of this new tenurial system, and especially the fact that individuals

became the absolute, legal owners of land that had previously been communally

controlled, would prove to be vast. During this period, the Court awarded land to only a

very few individuals, even after the 10 owner rule was altered and then abandoned.

Between 1865 and 1874, Native Land Court blocks were awarded to an average of 4.2

owners. Nonetheless, in most parts of Te Raki, this individualisation of Maori land did

not have immediately dramatic effects.

227

An important reason why the Court's initial impact in Te Raki was varied and difficult to

define was that Crown purchasing in the region during this time was focused on a few

specific localities. In most parts of Te Raki, local concerns and issues, rather than

pressure from Crown purchasers, shaped whether Maori sought legal title over their

land or not. Local Maori did seek legal title in order to sell or lease land to Pakeha

settlers and businessmen. Some Maori were also drawn to the Court because they

wanted secure, Crown-recognised title over particular areas that were under dispute or

threat.

However, these early hearings usually involved relatively small, discrete pieces of land.

Local chiefs maintained a degree of influence and control over the Court process and

most Maori-owned land in each sub-region, with the notable exception of Mahurangi

and Gulf Islands, was kept in customary tenure. In the Whangaroa sub-region, it is

estimated that only 23.3 percent of Maori-owned land had been clothed in Court title by

1874. In Hokianga and the Bay of Islands, roughly a third of Maori-owned land was

passed before the Court. Court influence was somewhat higher in the Whangarei sub-

region, due to more extensive Crown purchasing, and by 1874, approximately 40.3

percent of Maori-owned land had been clothed in Court title.

In much of the inquiry district therefore, the introduction of the Native Land Court had a

complex and not initially destructive effect. However, the Court had a clear and

considerable impact on those parts of Te Raki where the threat of landlessness and

pressure from Crown purchasers was most acute. By 1865, the Crown had already

acquired most of the land in the Mahurangi and Gulf Islands sub-region. Local leaders

rushed to the Court in the hope of gaining secure legal title over their few remaining

lands.

However, throughout this period and throughout the inquiry district, the Court rarely

imposed alienation restrictions on titled land or closely investigated the consequences

to either the legal owners or wider communities if these lands were sold. In Mahurangi,

it awarded absolute, alienable title to a few individuals who came under sustained and

sometimes unscrupulous pressure from Crown and Pakeha purchasers. Within a few

228

years, virtually all Maori land on the Mahurangi mainland had been sold and local

communities were in state of distress and near landlessness.

The Court during this initial period also had a considerable impact on the Puhipuhi–

Whakapara area that stretched between the Bay of Islands and Whangarei sub-regions.

No other locality saw so much land passed through the Court. The reason for this

heightened Court activity was clear: Crown and private purchasers wanted land and at

least some Maori were keen to sell. Crown purchasing agents paid advances to

individual Maori and assisted them to take the land through the Court, receive title, and

sell the land. The title determinations for these blocks were usually brief and, as in later

periods, the Court proved willing to award large areas to a small handful of individuals

who were seeking to sell land to the Crown. Alienation restrictions were, with a few

small exceptions, not imposed. Within a decade or so of the Court's introduction, a few

Maori in the Puhipuhi–Whakapara area had received or were in the process of receiving

Crown title to more than 128,000 acres. Apart from a few small areas, all this land was

purchased by the Crown.

What happened in Puhipuhi–Whakapara was, at least from the Crown's perspective, an

early and successful trial of the titling and purchasing tactics that would prove

devastatingly effective in Te Raki between 1875 and 1880. These were the key years in

determining the Native Land Court's impact upon Te Raki. During this time, the Court

system cemented its dominance in the area and emerged as a key element in the

Crown's land purchasing programme. It routinely granted title to a few Maori who had

received advance payments from Crown purchasing agents. This pattern of advance

payments, awarding land to those who were already committed to selling it, and then

final sale risked dispossessing Maori by allowing large areas of land to be sold without

communal control or general consent. It also posed real risks to the integrity and

independence of the Court. The Court was tacitly and sometimes explicitly encouraged

to act as an assistant or agent to the Crown's land purchasing department rather than as

an independent judicial body charged with weighty investigative and protective

responsibilities.

229

Between 1875 and 1880, Maori land was titled and then purchased in Te Raki at a

dizzying rate. The Court completed title determinations involving at least 255,850 acres

at an average of more than 42,643 acre a year, more than during any other period. In

1875 alone, it awarded at least 138,044 acres of land to individual Maori. This was by

far the Court's busiest ever year in terms of title determinations. The Court system

spread throughout the inquiry district. By 1880, 69.8 percent of all known customary

Maori land in Te Raki in 1865 had gone before the Court. In all five sub-regions, more

Maori land had been titled by the Court than remained in customary control. In

Whangarei, the largest of the sub-regions, 78.1 of what was customary land in 1865 was

by 1880 under Court title.

Crown purchasing drove this surge in Court activity. Crown purchasers snapped up

much of the Te Raki land that had gone before the Court before 1875 but they also

entered into negotiations over vast areas of untitled land that was neither legally

alienable nor had any legally recognised owners. They offered advance payments to

individuals and assisted them to gain title through the Court so that the transaction

could be legally completed.

The process worked, at least for Crown purchase agents, remarkably well. Most of the

land passed before the Court during these years was in large blocks, sometimes as large

as 20,000 acres that were destined to be sold. On a very few occasions, powerful Maori

opponents to these pre-title arrangements were present at Court and were able to delay

although not necessarily prevent the titling and sale process. But in general during this

period, title investigations were brief and perfunctory. The Court frequently failed to

consider whether other Maori had connections to these lands and were entitled, as the

Native Land Act 1873 seemingly required, to be included in the award.

The result was that within days of the Court's title determination, many of these blocks

were purchased by the Crown. Often the sales were completed within the courtroom

itself. The Crown had found a remarkably 'efficient' way of purchasing Te Raki land

without needing to secure the approval of any but a handful of Maori. In 1875–76, the

Crown purchased 294,735 acres of Te Raki Maori land. Around half of all land

230

purchased by the Crown between 1865 and 1900 was purchased in these two years.548

Much of the purchasing centred around Court hearings into land in Hokianga and

Mangakahia in the Whangarei sub-region. In 1875, at Herd's Point, Hokianga, the Court

awarded 19 blocks containing 65,514 acres to a small number of Maori, most of whom

had already received advance payments. Within days, the Crown had completed the

purchase of these lands. Around this time, almost 80,000 acres of Mangakahia land was

awarded to a single Maori who immediately sold all the land to the Crown.

The Court system during this period did little to protect Te Raki Maori against excessive

or unwanted land alienation. The Court largely ignored its legislative responsibilities to

ensure that Maori retained sufficient reserves and lands, and to investigate and protect

Maori against inequitable transactions. By awarding ownership to a handful of would-

be land sellers, it allowed legislative prohibitions against land alienations to be

routinely circumvented.

Judge F E Maning launched a sustained but unsuccessful campaign against the Court's

willingness to issue title to a few individuals who had received advance payments and

planned to sell the land to the Crown. Maning argued that the Court's legislative,

protective, and investigative responsibilities were being ignored and that the titling

process was being unduly controlled by Crown purchasing agents and Maori land

sellers. He warned that numerous rightful owners were being dispossessed and that this

rushed and unjust title and land purchasing process would inevitably provoke Maori

resistance.

Indeed, by the 1880s, most Te Raki chiefs wanted the entire Court system to be

abolished and replaced by a Maori-controlled titling process. Resistance to the Court

took many forms, including political protest, use of Maori committees and runanga to

adjudicate on land issues, and the establishment of a Rohe Potae covering parts of the

Whangarei and Bay of Islands sub-regions in which use of the Court and land sales were

prohibited. By this time, the Court had, for many Te Raki Maori, become synonymous

with uncontrolled land loss, disempowerment, and poverty. The great majority of the

548 Rigby, A56, pp 3-4

231

land taken before the Court had been purchased by the Crown. The little that remained

was insufficient – and the Court's form of title too disruptive and costly – for Maori

economic development and farming.

This resistance, along with diminishing pressure from Crown purchasers, meant that

Maori increasingly refused to bring their remaining customary land into the Court

system. Between 1881 and 1889, the Court awarded title to an estimated 62,132 acres

of Maori land in Te Raki. This marked downturn from previous periods was especially

apparent in the sub-regions where the Rohe Potae constituted a powerful bulwark

against the Court. New title determinations decreased markedly in the Whangarei sub-

region while in the Bay of Islands, an estimated 27.5 percent of land owned by Maori in

1865 remained under customary control in 1900, the highest proportion of any of the

sub-regions.

Nevertheless, the Court continued to be a factor in continuing Maori land loss during the

1880s. Although far less land was going through the Court – and being sold – the title

investigation process did not become more obviously careful or protective. The Court

continued to rubber-stamp awards for blocks in which sales to the Crown or Pakeha had

been arranged before hearings and where open opposition within the courtroom was

absent.

During this period, the Court contributed to Maori land loss in other ways. The title

determinations for the Puhipuhi block in the Whangarei sub-region and the Hauturu

block in the Mahurangi and Gulf Islands sub-region were protracted and for the Maori

applicants, hugely disruptive. Long and repeated hearings over more than a decade led

to considerable expenses and debt for hapu and leaders, worsened disputes between

the claimants, and encouraged the Crown to purchase the blocks. At times, Court

officials appeared to assist the Crown in these purchases, raising questions about the

independence of the Court. The debts and expenses incurred by Maori would appear to

have contributed to most of Puhipuhi being sold almost immediately after title was

finally issued, and to the drawn-out, highly problematic acquisition by the Crown of

Hauturu at the end of the 1890s.

232

While the Court continued in the 1880s to contribute to Maori land loss in Te Raki, its

processes also impacted on the ability of Maori to utilise and benefit from the areas that

remained in their ownership. As pressure from Crown purchase agents decreased, the

Court began to award blocks in Te Raki to large numbers of individual owners. These

owners possessed undefined interests and were mired in a netherworld without either

effective collective or individual control over land. The blocks were often too small to

economically support the many owners and their dependents. Title overcrowding

worsened due to the Court's succession policy. The interests of intestate owners were

inherited equally by all their children, leading to increasing numbers of owners holding

minuscule interests in blocks.549

The increasing fragmentation of title entrenched the Court's involvement in Maori-

owned land. Over time, owners repeatedly returned to the Court to define and subdivide

their interests into what they hoped would be a more manageable, effective form of

title. This was rarely successful. The interests of the owners were usually too small, and

the Court process too expensive and confused, to create viable individual plots. Indeed,

relatively few individual subdivisions were created. More common was the creation of

many subdivisions too small to be economically viable, owned by multiple individual

owners. These blocks and their often impoverished owners would prove highly

vulnerable when the Crown's purchasing programme resumed in earnest in the 1890s.

The report concludes with a discussion of Court activities in the 1890s and its role in the

resurgence of Crown land purchasing in Te Raki. By this time, Crown agents had

developed a new relationship with the Court and new purchasing tactics. They no

longer attempted, directly or indirectly, to encourage the Court to award land in Te Raki

to a few prospective sellers. Indeed, by this period, blocks were awarded on average to

more than 55 owners.

Crown agents waited patiently for these awards to be completed and then gradually

acquired the individual interests of the often frequently debt-ridden owners. Without

effective communal control over the land or sustainable, defined individual holdings,

549 Alan Ward, National Overview, 3 vols., Waitangi Tribunal Rangahaua Whanui Series (Wellington: GP Publications, 1997), vol 1, p 68; Geiringer, Wai 45, F10, pp 92-93

233

many owners saw little option but to sell. If some Maori refused to sell, the Court would

partition out the interests of the Crown and the non-sellers. These initial subdivisions

were often a prelude for further rounds of partitioning and purchasing as Maori land

holdings further shrunk and fragmented. The Court's failure to rigorously carry out its

protective responsibilities continued during this period, and it would seem that even

land officially restricted from alienation was commonly purchased by the Crown.

By 1900, the Native Land Court had awarded title to at least 684,600 acres of Te Raki

Maori land. Excluding land titled at an unknown period, perhaps 82.3 percent of all

Maori-owned land in Te Raki in 1865 had come under the Court system. This had

contributed to massive land alienation. During the first 35 years of the Court regime, the

Crown purchased an estimated 588,707 acres. In other words, around 86 percent of

Maori-owned land in Te Raki titled by the Native Land Court had been purchased by the

Crown.550 Only 5,578 acres of reserves had been issued, less than one percent of the

land purchased by the Crown.551

Titled land remaining in Maori ownership was

increasingly fragmented into small, chaotically tenured, and uneconomic holdings as the

Court's subdivision and succession activities took effect. These blocks would continue to

be divided and alienated in the coming years.

Nonetheless, the Court's influence over Te Raki Maori land was neither total nor

unchallenged. During the 1890s, Maori opposition to the Court in Te Raki had if

anything strengthened. They attempted, often in association with the Kotahitanga

movement, to boycott the Court and have it replaced, while non-Government sanctioned

native committees continued to operate in the area. The amount of new title

determinations continued to drop.

Of the four chronological periods used for this report, the 1890s saw the least amount of

land and blocks titled by the Court. During this decade, title determinations involving 61

new blocks and 41,427 acres were completed. Only 5 percent of Maori-owned land in Te

Raki in 1865 was passed through the Court in the 1890s. Just 6.4 percent of the blocks 550 Rigby, A56, pp 2-3 for an estimate of Crown purchases between 1866 and 1900. It should be kept in mind that the percentage of titled land purchased by the Crown does not factor in the estimated 103,269 acres titled at an unknown time. 551 Rigby, A46, pp 2-3

234

established by the Court in Te Raki were created during this period. In part, this

slowdown in new titling was because so much land had already gone before the Court.

There were no new title determinations involving Mahurangi and the Gulf Islands in the

1890s because virtually all Maori-owned land in that sub-region had previously been

titled and purchased.

Nonetheless, it is apparent that the Court became steadily less popular with Te Raki

Maori the more they knew of it. During its first 15 years, it appeared that the Court

would sweep away all customary title in Te Raki. Between 1865 and 1880, 69.8 percent

of Maori-owned land in the inquiry district, including 581,060 acres in 671 blocks, came

under the Court system. But title determinations declined as Maori resistance to the

Court and to land purchasing grew. From 1881 to 1900, only 12.5 percent of land

owned by Maori in 1865 was titled by the Court including 136 new blocks totalling

103,559.73 acres.

Te Raki Maori resistance to the Court had, against considerable odds, achieved some

significant victories. An estimated 17.8 percent of Maori-owned land in the region in

1865 remained under customary tenure at the turn of the twentieth century.552 This

made Te Raki in 1900 one of the few parts of New Zealand that retained significant

amounts of customary, or papatupu, land.553

Much of this customary land centred

around the Rohe Potae established in Motatau. For about 25 years, Maihi Paraone

Kawiti's prohibition on Court hearings and land sales within this area had held firm.

There were also clusters of customary land around the Hokianga Harbour, in the south-

eastern Bay of Islands, and in Whangaroa.

Moreover, Maori protest – and the Crown's fear that landless Maori could become a

'burden on the State' – had by this time forced the Liberal Government to ease pressure

on Maori to sell their remaining lands. The Maori Lands Administration Act 1900 was, in

Terry Hearn's words, a 'radical departure in Maori land-policy and law' that aimed to

552 See chapter 1 553 Hamer and Paul Meredith, 2016, A62, p 4. They state that Te Tai Tokerau more generally contained a large proportion of the remaining papatupu or customary land.

235

‘restore to Maori some control over the management and alienation of their lands'.554 It

allowed Maori owners of customary land to elect their own papatupu block committees

to adjudicate on title. Local Maori land councils were empowered to act on their

recommendations and to issue binding legal title albeit subject to rights of appeal.555

The impact (and demise) of this new system is beyond the parameters of this report.

What can be said is that, by 1900, Te Raki Maori continued to demand a genuine

alternative to the Native Land Court.

WAITANGI TRIBUNAL

CONCERNING the Treaty of Waitangi Act 1975

AND the Te Paparahi 0 Te Raki Inquiry

DIRECTION COMMISSIONING RESEARCH

1. Pursuant to clause 5A of the second schedule of the Treaty of Waitangi Act 1975, the Tribunal commissions Paul Thomas, historian, to prepare an overview research report on the major sub-regional patterns in the operation of the Native Land Court in the Te Paparahi 0 Te Raki inquiry region from 1865 to 1900.

2. The report will provide an overview of the operation of the of the Native Land Court and its processes and of Crown protection mechanisms in the titling, retention and alienation of Maori-owned land, analysing variations across the region and over time. The commissionee will have regard to Issue 5 The Native Land Court, 1865-1900 in the Tribunal's statement of issues for Stage 2 of the inquiry (Wai 1040, #1.4.2) and in particular to questions 5d-k, m-n and p-q concerning Maori engagement with the Court, the titling of customarily held land, Court processes and costs, protective mechanisms and legislation, remedies, outcomes and impacts.

3. The report will also take into account the research findings of the block histories commissioned under the Local Issues Research Programme, where available in distributed draft or final form, and the extent to which these conform with or differ from the sub-regional patterns it identifies. As a guide to the identification of sub-regions, the commissionee is referred to the Chief Historian's memorandum of 15 May 2014 on the selection of land blocks for case studies (Wai 1040, #6.2.15). Where appropriate, the report will give priority to the Court's operations in respect of blocks of 500 acres and above.

4. The report should address the following matters to the extent that source information is available and accessible and that time permits:

a) What sub-regional patterns can be identified in the operation of the Native Land Court in the Te Paparahi 0 Te Raki inquiry region up to 1900 in respect of initial title determination and subsequent litigation, partitioning, the notification, location and length of Court hearings, the evolution of Court business (in particular partitions and successions), the judges and assessors involved, and the survey and other Court-related costs incurred by Maori applicants?

b) What sub-regional patterns can be identified in the protections provided through the Court process in the inquiry region?

c) What sub-regional patterns can be identified, in broad terms, concerning the outcomes of the Court's operation in respect of the titling, retention and alienation of Maori-owned land in the inquiry region up to 19007

5. The commission commences on 18 April 2016 and ends on 28 October 2016, at which time one copy of the final report must be submitted for filing in unbound form, together with indexed copies of any supporting documents or transcripts. An electronic copy of the report should be provided in Word or Adobe Acrobat PDF format. Any appended data tables may also be provided in MS Excel format. The report and any accompanying material must be filed through the Registrar.

6. The report may be received as evidence and the author may be crossexamined on it.

7. The Registrar is to send copies of this direction to: Paul Thomas Claimant counsel and unrepresented claimants in the Te Paparahi 0 Te Raki Inquiry Chief Historian, Waitangi Tribunal Unit Principal Research Analyst, Waitangi Tribunal Unit Manager Research and Inquiry Facilitation, Waitangi Tribunal Unit Inquiry Supervisor, Waitangi Tribunal Unit Inquiry Facilitator(s), Waitangi Tribunal Unit Solicitor General, Crown Law Office Director, Office of Treaty Settlements Chief Executive, Crown Forestry Rental Trust Chief Executive, Te Puni K6kiri

Introduction

The tables and graphs used in the report were prepared by Waitangi Tribunal staff at

the request and direction of the author of this report from data entered into

spreadsheets adapted and generated for this project. The analysis and conclusions

drawn from these tables and graphs remain solely those of the author.

This introduction to the methodology explains how the data were collected, audited and

analysed and sets out the underlying principles relied on and any data limitations. It

begins by reviewing the existing research data spreadsheets and maps of Native Land

Court blocks. It then discusses the creation and auditing of the master title

determination spreadsheet created by Tribunal staff for this project and the analysis of

the assembled data. It ends by outlining the sources from which this project has drawn

data on the number of awardees per block, the number of restrictions on alienation

placed on blocks within the inquiry district, changes in the types of cases dealt with by

the Native Land Court over time, and Crown and private purchasing.

Te Paparahi o Te Raki (Te Raki) Inquiry District and its sub-regions The data collected and analysed for this report relates to land blocks within (or partly

within) the Te Paparahi o Te Raki (Te Raki) inquiry sub-regional boundaries. These

were initially defined in 2005 as proposed ‘inquiry districts’. This 2005 proposal

contemplated five separate sub-regions. Subsequently, the Tribunal agreed to a single

regional inquiry, embracing five sub-regions. It is these five sub-regions that have been

used to categorise the land blocks in the data used here. Those sub-regions are:

Mahurangi and the Gulf Islands, Whangarei, the Bay of Islands, Whangaroa and

Hokianga. The single regional inquiry became known as Te Paparahi o Te Raki in 2007.

The approximate boundaries of the inquiry region and the sub-regions are shown on

Figure 1 at the beginning of the report. These sub-regions should not be confused with

the taiwhenua under which claimants have organised their participation in the Te Raki

inquiry. It should also be noted that current inquiry boundary has been used for the

purposes of this report and is shown on the maps used throughout the report. The

exception is Figure 1, which shows the inquiry boundary as it was in 2005.

247

Coverage

The data collection and analysis have been designed to provide data to enable the

author to answer the commission questions. These require the commissionee to identify

sub-regional patterns in the operation of the Native Land Court in the Te Raki inquiry

region up to 1900 ‘to the extent that source information is available and accessible and

that the time frame to prepare this report allows’. This required data relating to:

• Title determination (including the notification, location and length of court

hearings and judges and assessors involved);

• Subsequent litigation (rehearings and appeals);

• Partitioning;

• The evolution of court business (in particular partitions and successions);

• Survey and other court-related costs incurred by Māori, and;

• Protections (restrictions on alienation, Trust Commissioners and District Officers

and reserves).556

Title Determination Details

Unfortunately, as the wording of the commission allowed for and anticipated, the scope

of the data collected and analysed has been narrower than initially hoped. The initial

focus was on collecting and verifying the names, sub-regions, acreage and date of title

determination for as many Te Raki Native Land Court blocks as possible (see below for

details). This was feasible because a working spreadsheet already existed, having been

created during work staff had done in preparation for a wider project tracking titling

and alienation of Maori land in the inquiry district. This project was later narrowed to

the four data validation reports produced by Dr Barry Rigby for this inquiry (Wai 1040,

A 48, A51, A53 and A56).

With this basic data tabulated (albeit with gaps and contradictions to be resolved), we

explored the feasibility of collecting and tabulating the other data on each title

determination case. However, in each case this would have required more time and

resources than were available to cover the 1,056 identified blocks comprehensively, the

556 Wai 1040, #2.3.52

248

priority need being to provide initial data at the point the author began drafting his

report in early July 2016.

In particular, data on notification of title investigation hearings would need to be

located in and tabulated from notices of sittings published in the New Zealand Gazette

and Kahiti. The location of the sitting, name of judge(s) and native assessors(s) can often

(but not always be) gathered from the front of each of the 84 Native Land Court Minute

Books for land within the Te Raki inquiry district. The location of the sitting is also

consistently recorded on Native Land Court certificates of title or memorials of owners

(sometimes the judge and native assessor’s names can be found there as well) and in

the Maori Land Court Minute Book Index. Time did not permit these sources to be

systematically searched and for that information to be tabulated and analysed. The

place of sitting (but not the name of the judge(s) or native assessor(s)) is generally

included in the Maori Land Court Minute Book index, but because the index only

contains blocks dealt with by the Court up to 1900 many of the blocks in the master

sheet are not found in that index.

The length of sittings would also have been relatively time consuming to determine for

all of the blocks identified. A ‘sitting’ of the Court means a period of days or weeks in

which a number of cases were heard. Armstrong and Subasic attempted to gather this

data from Native Land Court Minute Books, the Auckland Provincial Gazette and New

Zealand Gazette notices, newspaper reports, the papers of Spencer von Sturmer and

other relevant records. But they noted that ‘in many cases a start date is available, but

no details are provided as to when the sitting terminated. Our problems have also been

increased because Judge Maning's Land Court minute books are missing. Consequently,

we have been unable to ascertain the duration of his Court sittings.’557 However, within

these limits Armstrong and Subasic were able to provide a list of sitting start dates

arranged by location.558

Rehearings and Appeals

It also proved difficult to find reliable and systematic data on blocks that were subject to

rehearings and/or appeals. The SOPAC spreadsheet noted where Berghan had

discovered that a block had been subject to more than one title investigation hearing,

but it was not clear from the data whether those cases where a subsequent title

investigation was held constituted an adjournment or a rehearing. The Maori Land

Court Minute Book Index also lacks clarity on this issue, with relatively few cases being

categorised as rehearings or appeals (a total of 60 for the whole of Taitokerau are

identified as such between 1865 and 1900). This information could be obtained from

the minutes of the cases themselves, but this would be very time-consuming.

Partitioning

Some exploratory work was done to use Berghan’s block narratives to generate

systematic data on partitioning patterns. However, this also proved to be time-

consuming, and the alternative option of focusing on one of the small sub-regions as a

sample raised issues about how representative the resulting data would be for the

whole inquiry district and for the other sub-regions within it. Given the limits of time

and resources this was not pursued.

Evolution of the Court’s Business

Data showing the changing case types dealt with by the Native Land Court between

1865 and 1900 was generated and used in the report. This is explained in detail below.

Survey and other Court-related Costs

Data on survey and court costs could not be collected and analysed in the time available

for this project. Court costs are generally recorded in the margins of the minutes

themselves and often on the Native Land Court certificate of title/memorial of owners.

The standard rates for these costs are set out in the gazetted rules of the court.

However, to build an accurate picture of the accumulating costs faced by hapu and iwi

bringing land through the court and returning to the court for rehearings, appeals,

partitions and successions over a period of years would have required tabulating costs

from all court hearings for a particular block. To do this for even a sample of the known

blocks in the inquiry district would have required considerable work. Obtaining

250

systematic data on survey costs would have involved searching through block order

files held at the Whangarei Maori Land Court for survey liens recorded against the title

or searching through survey lien registers at Archives New Zealand to find entries for

blocks within the inquiry district.

Protections

Restrictions on alienation have been analysed using data available on Crown grants

issued for blocks within the Te Raki inquiry district (see below for details). Time

constraints have meant that gathering systematic data on decisions by Trust

Commissioners has not been possible. This would have involved extracting data for Te

Raki blocks from Trust Commissioner files held at Archives New Zealand (Auckland and

Wellington) containing returns, applications and letters.

Compilation and Source Information

The title determination master sheet has been used to provide data about the number of

blocks and acres titled over time and across the inquiry district and its sub-regions. It

has also been used to generate data on the size of those blocks and how that changed

over time and across locations.

In line with an early decision to utilise as much existing data and possible, the initial

data for the sheet was taken from the spreadsheet compiled by the Crown as part of its

Statement of Position and Concessions (SOPAC) for stage 2 of the inquiry.559

• sub-region;

In

attempting to quantify land loss across the inquiry district and its five sub-regions the

Crown produced a spreadsheet that included details of title hearings for 920 blocks. The

sheet also recorded:

• area of the award;

• applicant’s name;

• whether it was contested;

• whether there were multiple title hearings;

• any details about the names and number of grantees and their hapu;

559 Wai 1040, #1.3.2(c)

251

• the date of court decision;

• any advances made on the blocks before title;

• any awards to the Crown at the time of title determination;

• any details of Crown and private purchases from 1865-1900, and;

• information on reserves.

There are also notes on Crown purchase tactics, for example the purchase of individual

interests and the imposition of restrictions on private purchasing. The source of this

data is largely the block narratives for Native Land Court blocks prepared by Paula

Berghan.560 The sheet has a number of gaps where data does not appear in the Berghan

narrative; these are marked ‘NIB’ (not in Berghan). The Crown commissioned SKM

(Sinclair Knight Mertz, a firm specialising in GIS data and mapping) to locate some

additional blocks in parts of the district that have not been identified previously. These

blocks were included in the SOPAC sheet.561

For this project, block name, sub-region and date of title determination decision were

entered from the SOPAC sheet into the master sheet. The source of the title

determination date was recorded as ‘SOPAC_#3.1.2(c)’. A search for further Maori Land

(ML) Plans for blocks within the district identified additional blocks. Attempts have

been made to locate the date of title determination in Native Land Court certificates of

title/memorials of owners for additional blocks and for blocks where it is missing from

the SOPAC data. Where this has not been possible, this field and year of titling have been

marked as ‘unknown’. Unfortunately, some of the acreage figures on the SOPAC sheet

are incorrect, featuring more roods or perches than can be correct (i.e. more than 39

perches and more than 3 roods). ML Plans were checked for all blocks and the acreage

from these entered into the sheet as an authoritative source for the size of the block at

the time that it entered the court.

Title Determination Master Sheet, July 2016

Structure In the master sheet COLUMN A contains the block name. A Native Land Court block was

deemed to be eligible for inclusion in the master sheet if any part of it lay within the 560 Berghan, A39(a)-(f) 561 Wai 1040, #1.3.2, fnt p 10

252

boundaries of the Te Raki inquiry district. This situation arose with blocks along the

northern boundary, the southern boundary of the Hokianga sub-region and the western

boundary of the Whangarei sub-region with the Tribunal’s Kaipara and Te Roroa

inquiry districts. This practice avoided the need to calculate what percentage of those

blocks lay inside or outside the inquiry boundary but does introduce some imprecision

to acreage figures. Several blocks were still categorised as straddling two sub-regions;

these have been excluded from the analysis.

Where the block name begins with ‘Te’, the ‘Te’ has been put in brackets at the end of

the name so as to make it easier to list the blocks alphabetically. This is in line with the

practice followed in the SOPAC sheet. The spelling of block names sometimes varies

from source to source. In general, we have taken the authoritative spelling to be that

used on the ML Plan or on the Native Land Court certificate of title. Where there is an

often used variant or a block is clearly also known by another name, this has been

included in brackets after the block name, e.g. (aka ….). One of the issues faced by those

working with land data in the Te Raki district is the relatively large number of blocks

with the same name in the inquiry district (and often in the same sub-region). To avoid

confusion these block names have been tagged in square brackets with the ML plan

reference on which they can be found. This acts as a unique identifier.

COLUMN B gives the Tribunal’s original pre-inquiry districts and the sub-regions of the

current inquiry district. Where a block appears on the SOPAC sheet, the pre-inquiry

district used there has been entered in the master sheet. The pre-inquiry district for

additional blocks was established by staff analysis using GIS and other relevant research

data.

COLUMN C contains the date of NLC decision and COLUMN D shows the year of NLC

decision. COLUMN E records the source of the NLC decision date. It was originally

intended that this would record the date on which the title determination judgment was

announced in the court. However, a scan through Berghan’s narratives suggests that the

‘date of court decision’ in the SOPAC sheet is sometimes the date the judgment was

handed down and sometimes the date on which a title was issued, depending on what

Ms Berghan has been able to find out. When using Native Land Court titles/memorials

of owners, the date of judgment is difficult to discern. The start and finish dates of the

253

title hearing are often (but not always) given, but it cannot necessary be assumed that

all judgments were delivered on the final day of the hearing. So in these cases the date of

the title itself has been entered as date of decision.

While recognising that these events are not the same in real terms, it makes little

difference to the analysis as most titles were issued within a month or so of the case

concluding. There are a small number of cases where the title was issued the following

year (this sometimes happened if the court decision was made late in the year). This

may introduce slight inaccuracy into tables and graphs that show the number of blocks

or acres titled in each year. However, the majority of the analysis of date of titling used

time periods as a unit of analysis, so these cases fall into the same time period

regardless of whether date of judgment or date of title is recorded. Where a date of

titling cannot be established from the SOPAC sheet or a Native Land Court certificate of

title/memorial of owners, ‘unknown’ has been entered in this field. Time did not permit

a search of the minute books to fill these data gaps.

COLUMN F is an analysis column that was added to categorise the blocks by date of

titling into broad time periods: 1865-1874, 1875-1880, 1881-1889, 1890-1899, 1900-

1920 and after 1920. These were decided by the author to reflect identifiable periods

for the operation of the Court in the inquiry district.

COLUMN G, H, I records block size in acres, roods and perches, and COLUMN J as

decimalised acres. The acreage of the block has been recorded so that acres, roods and

perches are set out in separate columns, with the fourth column providing a decimalised

figure for that acreage.562

This enables the acreages to be added together easily.

COLUMN K gives the source, COLUMN L the reference and COLUMN M the date of the

source for the acreage figure. In almost all cases the source of the acreage figure will be

an ML Plan and/or a Native Land Court certificate of title/memorial of owners. All ML

Plan references are for plans from the North Auckland district. Occasionally, in the

absence of a primary source, acreage has been established from the Maori Land Court

562 The formula for this decimal calculation is (perches+(roods x 40)+(acres x160))/160

254

Minute Book index entry online. In those cases where the acreage could not be

established, this is noted as ‘unknown’.

The final column of the master sheet, COLUMN N, giving the size range in acres, is an

analysis column that was added to categorise the blocks by size. Armstrong and Subasic

make several arguments about the pattern of blocks brought before the court for titling

based on their size. In order to test these arguments against the available data, it was

decided to add this field. We were particularly interested in the fate of small blocks

(under 500 acres) and large blocks (over 5,000 acres) so decided on the following size

range categories:

• 100 acres or less

• 101-200 acres

• 201-300 acres

• 301-400 acres

• 401-500 acres

• 501-1,000 acres

• 1,001- 2,000 acres

• 2,001-3,000 acres

• 3,001-4,000 acres

• 4,001-5,000 acres

• More than 5,000 acres

The master title determination sheet is attached here as Appendix C.

Extent of Auditing and Checking and Limitations of the Data Every attempt has been made to check the data for accuracy as it was being entered into

the master sheet. However, the limited time available for the data phase of this project

means that this sheet has not been fully audited and there is likely to be a small amount

of duplication of block entries (from blocks with the same name in the same district)

and some possible double-counting where parcels created by partition (at time of titling

or later) have been entered as well as the original block. Some categorisation errors

may also remain. However, these should have a minimal effect on the data, which

remain precise enough to show broad patterns of titling. In addition, as noted above,

255

there is some level of incompleteness in the data. The number of blocks where the date

of titling is unknown is 105 out of the total 1,056 blocks (9.9%) and those blocks where

the acreage is unknown total 99 out of the 1,056 blocks (9.4%).

It is also acknowledged that the data gives us only the known Native Land Court blocks

in the inquiry district. This falls some way short of accounting for all of the land that

should come under this category. A GIS estimate made by Tribunal staff gives a possible

total acreage of the inquiry district of 2,102,094 acres. In its statement of position and

concessions the Crown put the total acreage of the district at 2,123,148 acres.563 When

the figures for Old Land Claim grants, surplus, script, pre-emptive waiver purchases and

pre-1865 Crown purchases arrived at by Rigby564

are subtracted from the GIS figure,

this suggests that the total area that should have been available to be dealt with by the

Court by the start of 1865 was 1,336,896.8 acres. The known blocks listed in the master

sheet total 934,745.6 acres (see table below). So we seem to have been able to account

for around 70% of calculated acreage available to pass through the Court at the

beginning of 1865.

Analysis The tables and graphs used in this report were generated from the master title

determination sheet and other sheets (as described below) using pivot tables. The

general practice adopted was to exclude blocks that have no known data of titling or

have no known acreage for this analysis, except where the ‘unknown’ category is

needed to calculate percentages that will sum to 100%, so these can be represented

accurately in pie charts and proportional bar and column graphs. Where blocks with

unknown data are excluded, this is noted immediately under the table concerned.

Data on the Number of Awardees per Block

One of the questions addressed in the report is how the average number of people

granted title to blocks changed over time and what impact this had on the subsequent

ability of the Crown to purchase the land. Although it does not contain all the blocks

now identified, the SOPAC sheet did give the number of people awarded each block.

These data were used to calculate the average number of grantees on titles for each time

period.

Data on Restrictions on Alienation

The report features some data on the number of blocks that were restricted from

alienation by the Court. These data were provided by a spreadsheet of Crown grants for

blocks in the Te Raki inquiry district compiled by Dr Barry Rigby from the bound master

set of Crown grants held at Archives New Zealand in Wellington. The data were matched

and analysed with the master title determination sheet. Dr Rigby’s original sheet is

attached as Appendix D. The joined titling and Crown grant working sheets are

attached as Appendix E.

Data on Native Land Court Case Types

The report features some analysis of the changing business of the Court over time,

particularly the decline in title determination cases (the initial business of the Court)

and the rise in ‘second generation’ activities such as partition and succession cases. As

mentioned previously, the small number of cases categorised as rehearings or appeals

made it impossible to detect any pattern in the changing frequency of those categories.

This analysis was made possible by obtaining from the University of Auckland a copy of

the spreadsheet of data that sits behind its online index to Maori Land Court minute

books.565

565

This spreadsheet with additional working columns added (highlighted pink) is

included here as Appendix F. This spreadsheet contained data for all the blocks within

the Taitokerau Maori Land Court district. Initially it was hoped to be able to sort out of

that data set all of the entries for blocks in the inquiry district. Because this proved

time-consuming, the report uses data for the whole of the court district to give a sense

http://www.knowledge-basket.co.nz/databases/maori-land-court-minute-book-index/�

257

of the broad changes in the patterns of the Court’s activity over time. It is likely that

these broad patterns were reflected in the inquiry district as well.

Data for Crown Purchases

While the primary focus of this report is not land alienation, the purchase of land that

had been put through the Court revealed some clear connections between the way that

the Court operated and the Crown’s land purchasing programme, particularly during

the 1870s and the 1890s. The spreadsheet of Crown purchasing data created by Dr

Rigby in his validation report on Crown purchasing between 1866 and 1900566

Data for Private Purchasing

was

matched with the titling data for blocks that had been purchased. This combined

spreadsheet is attached as Appendix G. The columns in regular font have been taken

from the title determination master sheet, while those in CAPITALS have been taken

from Dr Rigby’s spreadsheet. Where a block has been subject to several purchases, but

those occurred within the same time period, all relevant purchase deed numbers, dates

and years have been included in a single entry and the areas of the individual purchases

summed to give a total figure for acres purchased in that block. Rigby deducted a

percentage from his figure for the total acres purchased by the Crown to account for

blocks that lay partly outside the Te Raki inquiry district. This deduction was ignored

here as we have included all blocks that lie wholly or partly in the inquiry district.

This report has not provided an extensive analysis of the pattern of private purchasing

of Maori land in the inquiry district between 1865 and 1900. This is partly because the

connections between the operation of the Native Land Court and private purchasing are

far less clear in the existing research (and this report is essentially an analysis of that

research). But it is also because the data relating to private purchasing is poor. The

SOPAC sheet uses the Berghan block narratives to try to quantify the extent of private

purchasing. However, it is unclear how extensive and systematic Berghan’s search for

private purchases was. The SOPAC sheet aggregated private purchasing into time

periods, but unfortunately those time periods are different from those used in this

report’s analysis. In addition, the land areas shown as privately purchased on the SOPAC

566 Rigby, A56

258

sheet are recorded in hectares rather than acres, so they require converting to acres if

they are to be used.

Because of a degree of imprecision in Berghan, there is also a reasonably significant

amount of private purchasing that has been categorised as ‘[date] not stated, prob[ably]

before 1900’ and ‘[date] not stated at all’. However, this is the only systematic data on

private purchasing available for the inquiry district. Therefore, these figures have been

cited in the body of the report, and give some idea of the extent of private purchasing

and how this changed over time.
