April 1848 To McLean at Turakina Friend, McLean, Greetings. Friend, Te Rangihaeata has visited me and slept at my house, and we talked. He said, 'Don't give over the lands of Rangitikei, Turakina and Wangaehu.' I said to him, 'No, let one side of Rangitikei go.' He said, 'It was your father who told me to live at Poroutawaho. But your father had no right to give away land.' Then he, Te Rangihaeata, said his letter had gone to Te Heuheu. And Kingi Hori said to him, 'Friend, that was wrong.' Te Rangihaeata said, 'That Pakeha was good to you and your grandchild.' And I said to him, 'I have not yet seen any evil from the Pakeha.' He said, 'Soon [perhaps we will see] with the size of the payment for your land.' And I said, 'Yes, soon the size [will tell].' Well, we argued, and he said, 'Friend, when you know the outcome, that will tell.' From Kawana Hakeke

Aperira 1848 Ki a Makarini, ki Turakina E hoa, e Makarini, Tena koe. E hoa, tenei a Te Rangihaeata kua tae mai ki au, kua moe ki taku whare, kua korero maua. Kua mea ia, 'Kaua e tukua te whenua a Rangitikei a Turakina a Wangaehu.' Kua mea atu ahau, 'Kahore, me tuku tetahi taha o Rangitikei.' Ka mea mai ia, 'Na to matua ra i ki mai kia noho atu au i Poroutawaho. Kaore he tikanga tuku oneone na to matua.' Ka mea mai ia a Te Rangihaeata, kua tae tona pukapuka ki a Te Heuheu. Ka mea atu a Kingi Hori, 'E hoa, e he na tena.' Ka ki mai a Te Rangihaeata, 'He tangata pai ko ia ki a korua ko to mokopuna te Pakeha.' Ka mea atu au ki a ia, 'Kaore ano ahau i kite noa i te kino o te Pakeha.' Ka ki mai ia, 'Akuanei oti nui[?] ai te utu o to kainga.' Ka ki atu au, 'Ae, akuanei nui[?] ai.' Heoti ka totohe maua, ka ki mai ia, 'E hoa, he te rongo tikanga [top of page] koe, ka tika rongo mai.' Na Kawana Hakeke
