Notes

1. Sewell Journal, 6 and 7 January 1865, vol. II, pp. 324-37, vol. III, p. 11; G. Hensley, ‘The withdrawal of the British troops from New Zealand, 1864-1870’, pp. 38-9.

2. For details of land confiscation see AJHR, 1873, C-4B, p. 6 and 1928, G-7. The confiscations were rapacious enough without their being inflated to the exaggerated estimates of 5 million acres and more which some historians have adduced. Confiscations in the Waikato and on both East and West Coasts totalled about 3.3 million acres, of which about 600,000 were returned to Maori claimants and purchase money subsequently paid in respect of about 600,000 more.

The offices of Assessor in the Resident Magistrates’ Courts and Assessor in the Native Land Court were distinct, though sometimes both were held by the same men. In this book, unless otherwise stated, the term ‘Assessor’ will still refer to Assessors in the Resident Magistrates’ Courts.

II, I-30, pp. 6-7).
