No.31 Captain Creagh, 06 Jan 1844, land exchange No.32 Transfer No.50. I, Octavius Carrington of New Plymouth do hereby declare that I have transferred all my interest in the Surveyors Reserve in Currie Street, purchased by me of the New Zealand Company, to Charles Day of New Plymouth, and I hereby desire that the above land may be transferred in the Company’s books to the said Charles Day. Witness my hand this day 05 Sep 1844 – witnessed by William Lakeman. No.33 I do hereby authorise James Pearce and William Painter to draw the lot on my behalf, for priority of choice in the selection of land in the stead or place of the section of land they are now cultivating at the Mungaraka. As witness my hand this 2nd day of December 1844. Henry King.



No.34 New Plymouth 24 Dec 1844. Memorandum that there is a balance of £14 18s due in Rural Sections, numbers 259, 260, 261 which is to be paid to the New Zealand Company when a title is given for the aforesaid sections. L. H. Davy. Received above amount from Charles Davy 13 Apr 1880. New Plymouth 24 Dec 1844. Received of Captain L. H. Davy the £135 on account of those sections 259, 260, 261 and Captain Davy’s memorandum for the £14 18s to be paid in cash when a title is given for the sections aforesaid, making together £150. Signed J.T.W. [Wicksteed] No.35 Captain L. H. Davy No.36 New Plymouth 17 Feb 1845 J. T. Wicksteed to Captain Creagh. My Dear Sir, I fear you have had no good news by the ‘Slains Castle’ or ‘Caledonia’. My own returns from the Directors of the New Zealand Company do not mention any payments on your account. I feel that you must be very unpleasantly situated under these circumstances, and I greatly regret it; but I am bound to let you know that I can no longer delay an explanation to the Principal Agent of the terms on which you were permitted to select the four suburban sections Nos 26, 27, 40 & 41. As you are aware I had some conversation with Colonel Wakefield on the subject when he was at New Plymouth in June last. I then stated my expectation that in a short time your arrangements would be satisfactory; but this has not been the case, and Colonel Wakefield has since applied to me to know why no payment appears to your credit in my accounts. Now, I think, that the fact of your holding Mr Earp’s receipt for two rural and town sections - £150 – and having paid him the money in the belief that he was an Agent of the Company is a fair reason for a continued delay of the demand for payment of the two sections you intended for yourself, but as regards the other two, which, I understand, you desire to retain for your brother, the case is different; and with great reluctance I am compelled to say that I think you ought to relinquish those two – whichever they may be. And I am the more convinced that this is the course I ought to call upon you to take, that I have reason to believe Mr Day would gladly take any two of the four sections – unless some such arrangement is made, I fear he will leave the settlement. I have, however, not said a word on the subject to Mr Day. In order to make this proposal less disagreeable to yourself I am willing to give you the refusal of the two sections at the back adjoining you two sections 40, 41. These are not in the recently purchased “block”, but the Company must soon obtain an equally good title for them. I have delayed this communication as long as my sense of duty will permit, in the hope, which I shared with yourself, that each successive mail from England would bring news that would render it unnecessary. No.37 New Plymouth 05 Jun 1845 Memorandum of an agreement whereby Mr William Saunders is to retain 15 acres of Suburban Section No.22 including the cleared land marked on the map and bounded on the north by the Belt, on the east by the river Huatoki, on the south by the remaining portion of the said section and on the west by a section belonging to Mr Standish No.21 on the plan, without further payment; yielding up all claim whatever to the remaining 35 acres of the said section, he being allowed to take the crops off the land he has already sown. A right of road to the back part of the section is retained through Mr Saunder’s land.

We have taken into consideration that it is unnecessary to alter the award of 1844 in as much as the improvements made since that period by Messrs Flight and Devenish may be held as an equivalent to the deterioration of the property and buildings.
