They have no church and m order lo obtain the money necessary for building one, they camped m the neighboring bush during the months of June, July and August, and cut 500 tons ol firewood, which they are rafting down tho river to a purchaser, who has agreed to givoithem £200 for it. In earnestness and devotion the Maori can sometimes • teach a lesson to his Pakeha brethren.
