23 January 1852 Friend, McLean, Greetings. We have been greatly concerned for you since your arrival in Port Nicholson, and so we all feel for you. I've another thing to say to you. You know the land you and Governor Grey gave at Taranaki for me. Because I gave that land to Parete [Parris?] on my return to Auckland [for?] £60, and took £50, £10 remain. Would you ask Parete to give it to me? It's your decision now. If you agree to give it to me or not, all right, but write to me so I will know. That's all. From your loving son, from Roruta[?]
23 Hanuhere 1852 E hoa, e Makarini, Tena koe. Ka nui to matou awangawanga atu ki a koe i tou taenga mai ki Poneke, no reira ka aroha atu ki a koe matou katoa. E kupu ke tenei naku ki a koe, e mohio ana koe ki te whenua i homai ai e korua ko Kawana Kerei ki Taranaki moku, ta te mea ka hoatu e au ki a Parete taua whenua i toku hokinga mai ki Akarana, mai[?] e ono tekau pauna, riro mai e rima tekau pauna, he toe ana kotahi tekau pauna. Mau e tono atu ki a Parete kia homai? Kei a koe te whakaaro inaianei. Ki te pai koe kia homai, he ko[r?]e, e pai ana, me tuhi mai koe ki au kia mohio ai au. Eoi ano. Na tou tamaiti aroha, na Roruta[?]
