1 май 1838 г. - Langlois attempts to buy Banks Peninsula

Описание:

In 1838 Jean Francois Langlois, the captain of a French whaler, attempted to purchase the whole of Banks Peninsula from a number of Ngai Tahu chiefs. He paid a deposit of 150 francs
(œ6) of a total of 1000 francs (œ40), to be paid on taking up possession. The sale was
never acknowledged by Ngai Tahu in the terms of the deed written in French, and at
most it could be said that some small areas of land at Port Cooper had been intended
to be sold. Nonetheless, whatever the purchase signified, it had not been completed.
