28 Mei 1848 Parewanui Ki Wanganui, ki a Te Makarini E hoa, Tena koe. Tenei taku korero ki a koe mo tetahi Pakeha, ko Tiemi tona ingoa, i haere mai ki te titiro i whenua i utua e koe, ki te tiro wahi mo ana hipi. Na kipa[?] taua Pakeha ki tana korero na, na Kawana te whakaaro ki a ia, kia haere mai me ana hipi. Ko te wahi i korero rau[a?] ki a koe, ko te wahi i pirangi ai e taua Pakeha hei wahi mona. Kahore ahau i pai ki a ia. E whakaaro ana ahau ki a koe, ta te mea kaore na reira[?] ata rite noa. Na Te Reihana 28 May 1848 Parewanui To Wanganui, to McLean Friend, Greetings. My message to you concerns a Pakeha named Tiemi [James?], who came to look at the land you paid for, to look at a place for his sheep. Now that Pakeha said then that the Governor put the idea to him to come here with his sheep. The part they[?] spoke of to you, is the part that Pakeha wanted for himself. I did not like him. And I thought of you, because that part is not properly settled. From Te Reihana
