Patea 10[?] October 1850 Go off, my letter, to McLean. Greetings to you. Your letter has come to me and you say that it is a great amount of money which I wrote to you about earlier. It is true that I called for £1 a month, and you know there are twelve months in a year, and such is the sum of the pounds that you replied to me. You say that is a great amount and I should take back from that £8, but although you have a proposal, my heart is set on this. I will not go to Wanganui for there is no matter for discussion for me to make the journey. The subjects for you and I are these, to settle a leader for the river. That's a subject for me to make the journey. Now, if I should settle your matter, then you should settle mine. The money for the canoe which that was broken at Patea, give to the policemen and they will bring it to me. I won't be going out. That is all, the end of it. From a good friend, Poaha Tamaiakina

Patea 10[?] Oketopa 1850 Haere ra, e taku pukapuka, ki a Te Makarini. Tena ra koe. Kua tae mai tou pukapuka ki au, ka mea koe e nui rawa ana nga moni i tuhituhia atu e au ki a koe i mua ra. E tika ana i karangatia e au kotahi pauna mo te marama kotahi. Mahara na koe kotahi tekau ma rua nga marama o te tau kotahi, a, e pera ano hoki te ritenga o nga pauna, no konei ka whakahokia mai e koe. Ka mea koe e nui rawa era ka whakahokia e au i era e waru pauna, otira mau hoki he tikanga e tatu ana toku ngakau ki enei. E kore au e tae atu ki Wanganui, kaore he korero hei haerenga atu moku. Ko nga korero ma taua koia tenei, ka rite nei he tiaka mo te awa. Ko te korero tenei hei haerenga atu moku. Na, kua rite tau tikanga i au, ko taku hoki kia rite i a koe. Ko nga moni mo te waka i pakaru ki Patea, me homai ki nga pirihi ma ratou e tango mai. E kore au e tae atu. Heoti ano, ka mutu. Na te hoa aroha, na Poaha Tamaiakina
