Wanganui, Awarua, Wiremutaone 23 Mei 1851 Ki a Te Makarini E koro, e Te Makarini, e toku hoa aroha, Tena koe te noho mai na i runga i te mahara, i runga i te tumanakotanga mai ki a maua ko to hoa aroha ko Hori Kingi Te Anaua. E hoa, ko tau reta i tuhituhi mai ai ki a maua ko Hori Kingi, kahore i korerotia e ahau. Kua hoatu e ahau ki Parikino kia korerotia i reira tau pukapuka, i reira. Kaore au i mohio ki tou taenga mai ki Rangitikei, no te mea kaore au i korero i tau pukapuka. Kei te mate a Hori. Mau hoki e tuhituhi mai ki ahau. Heoi ano. Na to hoa aroha, na Hoani Wiremu Hipango Wiremutaone Ki a Makarini Rangitikei Wanganui, Awarua, Williamtown 23 May 1851 To McLean Friend, McLean, my dear friend, Greetings to you there in thought and regard for me and your good friend Hori Kingi Te Anaua. Friend, the letter you wrote to Hori Kingi and I, I did not read. I gave it to be discussed there at Parikino, and so it is there. I did not know of your coming to Rangitikei because I had not read your letter. Hori is ill. You could write to me of it. That's all. From your good friend, Hoani Wiremu Hipango Williamtown To McLean Rangitikei
