6 September 1849 Friend, McLean, Greetings to you there. I have great affection for you. Your letter has come to me, and I recognise your good work for your and my tribe of Ngati Apa. Friend, it is right to set down the points for us all to debate in the presence of our good friend, of Ngati Apa. I am not of the thinking that you wish to steal people's land. No, it is to elevate us, the Maori people who live in poverty. That's all. From your friend, from Hone Pumipi Harihari [Postscript] I am going away, and if a letter comes back to me by mail [last three words look as if crossed out], then I will go and see you, my dear friend, who is in the midst of good work and caring for all people.

6 Hepetema 1849 E hoa, e Makarini, Tena ra koe. Ka nui toku aroha ki a koe. Kua tae mai tau pukapuka ki au, ka kite ahau i to mahi aroha ki to taua iwi, ki a Ngati Apa. E hoa, ka pai ka tatakoto nga wahi i tohe ai tatou ki te aroaro o taua hoa aroha, o Ngati Apa. Kahore aku whakaaro he ritenga tahae tau ki te oneone tangata, kahore, hei whakarangatira i a matou, i nga tangata Maori e noho ana i runga i te rawakoretanga. Heoi ano. Na tou hoa, na Hone Pumipi Harihari [Postscript] Ka haere atu ahau, me ka hoki mai te mera kawhe pukapuka kia kite ahau [last three words look as if crossed out], a, ka haere atu ahau kia kite i a koe, i taku hoa aroha, i roto i te mahi pai, atawhai ki nga tangata katoa.
