Waitara 8 November 1850 To McLean Greetings. Friend, McLean, I have a word for you indeed. Listen, it is about my land at Rapawa, which has been given over by Ropoama to the Pakeha. And the Governor and Piri Kawau have also recognised that. Well, you have the right on my behalf for Te Weranga from[?] Tohi[?]. Leave off payments for them. But bring me the payments here. This is why I wrote to you, because [the payments?] have been dispersed by Ropoama, Witikau, Hohepa, and all the people of Rapawa. This is the reason I wrote. That's all. From your good friend, from Enoka Rere Tawangawanga

Waitara 8 Noema 1850 Ki a Te Makarini Tena koe. E hoa, e Te Makarini, he kupu ianei naku ki a koe. Kia rongo koe mo toku whenua i a Rapawa, kua tukua atu e Ropoama ki nga Pakeha. Kua kite hoki a Te Kawana raua ko Piri Kawau. Ko tenei, kei a koe te tikanga ki a au mo Te Weranga o a i Tohi. Kati ki a ratou ko taua utunga. Ko tenei me homai nga utu ki konei. No reira au i tuhituhi atu ai ki a koe, no te mea kua pakarutia e Ropoama, e Witikau, e Hohepa, e nga tangata katoa o a Rapawa. Koia au i tuhi atu ai ki a koe. Heoti ano. Na tou hoa aroha, na Enoka Rere Tawangawanga
