Don't listen to people's talk, you yourself have the right and I also over my place. However, it is also your decision about my brother occupying it, yours and Witana's. Friend, think about what I've said to you. Friend, this is the right procedure for everything, the small and the great. That's all, the end. From your good friend, from Wiremu Tako
