Auckland Sept. 13/45 Dear McLean, Your interesting report and letters by Revd. Bolland arrived on Teusday last we made some extracts from the report and sent them to the Secretary of State and by the time this reaches you they will be on their way to England. Your account of your interview with Te Heuheu was much in character and your quiet settlement of the little difficulties both among rival tribes and thoughtless Europeans will tend to make your services very acceptable to all parties. I am only sorry that you cannot leave your post and make more frequent visits into the interior
