5 August 1850 Friend, McLean, Greetings. This is our message for you to hear. We have heard from the man who spoke to you in Wellington, Hetaraka, and this is the reason we write to you. We think that the people below have the right, but Takerei is right in that it is his own land. We say that the boundary for Tawhaitara is at Whaikaramarama and on to Mokau. There are some of us there also, and they will point out the boundaries - Paora Te Ririwhakaupa and Te Waka, and others are at Waikawau - Te Hemara, Hakaraia, Tohikore, Te Kirirewharewha, Kahukupenga, Wataroa, Hoani Te Rau, Rawhenata Pukuhora.
5 Akuhata 1850 E hoa, e Te Makarini, Tena koe. Tenei ano a matou kupu kia rongo koe. Kua rongo matou ki te tangata i korero atu na ki a koe i Poneke, ki a Hetaraka, no konei matou ka tuhituhi atu ai ki a koe. E whakaaro ana matou kei nga tangata o raro te tikanga, otira e tika ana ta Takerei ko tona whenua ano. E mea ana matou kei Whaikaramarama te rohe mo Tawhaitara, haere mai ki Mokau. Tena ano etahi o matou kei kona ano, ma ratou e whakaatu mai nga rohe, ko Paora Te Ririwhakaupa, ko Te Waka, tena ano etahi kei Waikawau, ko Te Hemara, ko Hakaraia, ko Tohikore, ko Te Kirirewharewha, ko Kahukupenga, ko Wataroa, ko Hoani Te Rau, ko Rawhenata Pukuhora.
