Turanga Nui, 26 Nov. 1865. Sir, I have much pleasure in being the channel through which the Force under my command have thought fit to tender for your acceptance a "mere mere" taken at "Waeringa Ahika" and I trust you will be good enough to accept the same as a slight testimonial from us of the kindness you always have shown to the Colonial Forces engaged under your instructions. I have the honor to be Sir, Yours most obedt. servt. James Fraser. His Honor D. McLean Napier.
