Te Orokohai 10 July 1847 Friend, Eruera, My message to you is this, support me, and persevere with [me], all of you, friends. Poharama, my message to you is this, support me, and show your support for me in this, and your perseverance in speaking to the judge. Friend, Nganangana, this is my opinion for you, support me, and show your support for me in this, your feeling in this, in speaking to the judges. Friend, Te Waka, this is my opinion for you, support me, and show your support for me in this, in speaking to the judge. Friend, Wiremu Makoare, my message to you is this, support me, and show your support for me in this, in your speaking to the judge. Friend, Hone Ropiha, this is my opinion for you, support me, and show your respect for me in this, your feeling for me in this, by your speaking to the judge. That's the end of this. I've another suggestion for you, for the chiefs of the town, that you continue in talking to McLean. You should all meet together again to talk alongside McLean, and to talk of a mill for us. Friend, Wiremu Makaore, you as Maori chiefs should continue talking to our guardian, to McLean. This is the second of my letters; there is one for you, the Maori chiefs and one for the Pakeha leaders. You all should talk with our Pakeha. However, don't hold it against me for speaking thus to you, in my writing here to you: Eruera at Kohongihongi[?], Pohara at Mokopeke, Nganangana at Pukeariki, Te Waka at Te Kawau, Wiremu Wakoera at Tehenui, Hone Ropiha at Te Raramiti[?] That's all, the end.
