Some remarks on the Ahuriri district to accompany the charts he sent him whilst in the company of Donald McLean, Her Majesty's Commissioner of Crown Lands. He hopes the charts prove useful at the Admiralty but cannot vouch for their accuracy. Speaks of a sketch and refers to Tekopi Whare at the mouth of the Manawatu and describes the rivers in this area and only one rapid. Further content provides a survey of the area and potential for grazing.
