Manawapou 24 March 1847 Friend, McLean, Greetings to you. This is my message. Listen, we have talked and the committee has approved our having a mill. All the people here at Manawapou have agreed, and the women have approved. We are waiting for you to come so we can hear whether you will agree or not. However, what we would like is for you to agree. If you cannot come here at once, then write to us so we will know when you will come and whether by land or sea. Write to Te Wunu [Woon?]. This is the end here. From me, from Matiu Whata

Manawapou 24 Maehe 1847 E hoa, e Te Makarini, Tena ra koe. Tenei ano taku korero. Kia rongo mai koe, kua korero matou, kua tika te komiti mo tetehi mira ma matou. Kua whakaae katoa nga tangata o Manawapou nei, kua tika i nga wahine. E tatari ana matou kia tae mai koe, kia rongo matou i tau kupu whakaae ranei kahore ranei. Otira, ko ta matou i pai ai kia whakaae koe. Ki te mea e kore koe he haere wawe mai, me tuhituhi mai kia rongo matou i tou haerenga mai, na uta nei ranei, na te moana atu ranei. Mau e tuhituhi mai ki Te Wunu. Ka mutu i konei. Naku, na Matiu Whata
