Ko Mei 1, 1851 Ki a Te Makarini E ta, Tena koe. He rahi te aroha i a au ki a koe. Tenei ka raru tatou i tenei Pakeha i a Eruera. Ko te kainga hoki i whakarite tatou kua mahue i a ia, ae, e pai ana nana ano i whakarere. Ko toku kainga me waiho ki a matou. E haere ana ki Akarana[?]. Ka ki atu ahau ki a ia, 'Kia rite i a Ma he kainga mou.' Ki mai ia, 'Kahore, kaua e utu he kainga moku.' E ta, kaua koe e whakaae kainga mo tenei Pakeha. Na Te Harawira Na Te Waaka 1 May 1851 To McLean Sir, Greetings. I have great respect for you. Here we are in trouble with the Pakeha, Edward. He has left the place we arranged for him, yes, but it is all right because he himself abandoned it. My land must remain with us. [He?] is going to Auckland [?]. I said to him, 'Let Ma arrange a place for you.' But he said, 'No, don't pay for a place for me.' Sir, don't agree to a place for this Pakeha. From Te Harawira From Te Waaka
