(an Irish priest). Offered Symonds my bedroom for him. Crossed the river in the evening. Slept at Cameron's. Good weather. Joined Mr. Wills about 9 in the morning. A long complaint of the native interruptions. Talked to them. About all right again. Says hard work in the fern laying down lines. Comfortable encampment. Fine, rich land in the Wangahu district. Well adapted for agriculture and grazing. Natives talking about Heuheu's death. It is difficult to forsee the wonderful designs of a wise Providence in having terminated the life of this Chief, who was certainly a great friend to the settlers of Wanganui; and if there is not a great consumptiom of powder and shot over the old man's grave, that may deprive them of their superfluous supply, as well as their dependance on firearms. At work in the morning. Moved tents. Crossed the Kaitoki river. Set down the boundary to Pukipoto near Rotokawa, and from thence to Union line from where the boundary goes direct to the seaside, including all sections.
