18 September 1846 Friend, McLean, Greetings. This is another idea for you. The Wikitoria has not yet come in, hence my delay. I would have arrived but my children and brother-in-law have delayed me. I could not come back again before when I returned from the war. These were the plans Kawana spoke of to me, 'Friend, Pita, look to the Wikitoria to take your children, wives, and in-laws away. Friend, Ripeka, greetings to you as I depart. That's all, the end. From Te Waka

Ko Hepetema 18, 1846 E hoa, e Te Makarini, Tena koe. Tenei ano taku whakaaro ki a koe. Kahore ano i tatu noa ha Wikitoria, no konei au i roa ai. Penei kua tae atu ahau, otira ko aku tamariki ko taku taokete i roa ai ahau nei. Kore kua hoki atu ano ahau i mua ra i toku hokinga mai i te whawhai. Tenei ano nga whakaaro o Kawana i korero ai ki a au. 'E hoa, e Pita, mau e titiro mai ki Wikitoria, ka riro atu i au ho tamariki, to ahine, to taokete. E hoa, Ripeka, tena koe, i taku waihotanga atu.' Heoi ano, ka mutu. Na Te Waka
