E tikanga pai tenei te tuku whenua, e ai ta te ture ohou i whakaatu. E tama, kei te pai au ki toku whenua kia tukua paitia atu ki a koe aianei. Me whakaae koe ki toku whenua ta te mea e whakaaro ana matou ko koe te kaiutu whenua. Heoi ano nga korero, ka mutu. Na, kia rongo mai koe ki te rohe o toku kainga: ko Hangutu whakamau, whakamau ki Te Ahituere, whakamau ki Maungakara, te rohe o raro ko Tara whakamau ki Te Ngoungou, whakamau ki Mangakara. Na tou hoa aroha, na Te Pohe Ki a Te Makarini Ohaua 11 August 1851 Friend, McLean, Greetings to you. My message for you is about my land, for I am considering selling you my settlement of Ohaua and Te Ikamaru. You buy these lands. Giving over of the land is a very good custom, according to the law you explained. Young man, I am happy for my land to be given over to you now and in good faith. You should agree to my land because we consider that you are the one who purchases land. That is all there is to say, the end of it. Now, to inform you of the boundary of my land: [it begins] at Hangutu and it extends out to Te Ahituere and Maungakara, with the lower [or, northern] boundary including Tara and retained out to Te Ngoungou and Mangakara. From your good friend, from Te Pohe To McLean
