Takutai October 1853 To McLean and Teone Young men, Now at last my arrangement with Teone has substance. Sir, Ma, don't say that it is a large amount of land, it is not, it's a small amount. I would not lie to you by saying that is it a large amount, for it is not, it is small. But now the discussion with my relatives is settled, for my elders have agreed to my proposal. However, some other people have not yet agreed to it, but I must now work to assure you, in case soon there should be gossiping, grumbling and chatter about that land. Timoti, Te Teira, Te Harawira, Tame, Irai, Hoana, Pane, Hanita, Eraina, Poihipi, Hoani, Makere, Haratiera, Hemi, Wirihi, Tawinia: those are the people who have agreed with my proposal. Ruta and her brothers have not yet agreed, and Namana and his elders did not agree to it. That's the end. From Hamiora

Takutai Oketopa 1853 Ki a Te Makarini raua ko Teone E tama, Katahi ano ia taku tikanga ka whakatinanatia ki a Teone. E ta, e Ma, kei ki koe he kainga nui, kaore, he kainga paku nei. E kore ahau e pai ki te korero parau atu ki a koe, he kainga nui, kaore, he paku nei. Heoi kua rite ta matou nei korero ko oku whanaunga, ta te mea hoki ka whakaae oku kaumatua ki runga ki taku tikanga. Otira, kahore ano etahi atu tangata i whakaae mai, otira me mahi e au i miri i a koe, aianei kei puta te kiki te haku, te korerorero ki taua kainga. Na Timoti, na Te Teira, na Te Harawira, na Tame, na Irai, na Hoana, na Pane, na Hanita, na Eraina, na Poihipi, na Hoani, na Makere, na Haratiera, na Hemi, na Wirihi, na Tawinia, na, ko nga tangata tena kua whakaae mai ratou ki taku tikanga. Ko Ruta kaore ano i whakaae ratou ko ona tungaane, otira, ko Namana ratou ko ona matua, kaore i whakaae mai. Ka mutu. Na Hamiora
