He therefore determined, if possible, to purchase for them a small estate. It consisted of about two hundred acres ; and the first plot of ground to which England can lay claim in New Zealand was formally made over in a deed, of which Mr. Nicholas has fortunately preserved a transcript. It was executed in the presence of a number of... chiefs, who were assembled to take leave of the Active on the day before she sailed, and ran as follows : — " Know all men to whom these presents shall come, that I, Anodee Grunna, king of Eangheehoo, in the island of New Zealand, have, in consideration of twelve axes to me in hand now paid and delivered by the Heverend Samuel Marsden of Paramatta, in the territory of New South Wales, given, granted, bargained, and sold ; and by this present instrument do give, grant, bargain, and sell unto the committee of the Chui'ch Missionary Society for Africa and the East, instituted in London, in the kingdom of Great Britain, and to their heirs and successors, all that piece and parcel of land situate in the district of Hoshee, in the island of New Zealand, bomided on the south side by the bay of Lippouna and the town of Bangheehoo, on the north side by a creek of fresh water, and on the west by a public road into the 106 LIFE or THE BET.
