Pe's [?] dog, taken by a Ngati Maru war party, has not been mentioned. I spoke again to Te Kepa about speaking peacefully and supporting the Pakeha. Well, I'm waiting for you. He does not agree with me. Friend, reply to me, direct your reply to me. Friend, I am working unhappily as I have no one to support me. Sir, only you can answer my letter. Be quick so that you can do something about these matters of the Pakeha that remain. The trouble is very bad, very bad. Be quick to reply to me, be quick.
