"Waipapa, May "From the assembly of Ngatipaoa living under the protection of the Queen. "Friond Superintendent,—These words are addressed by us to you and to all your Assembly. Listen. Formerly the law came through you. You said, Let us all be one. We replied, Yes. Thereupon we held firmly to the law, even up the very time when appeared the notice of the Superintendent of the Assembly of the province of Auckland about the discovery of gold. At that time came Paratene Puhai from the gold-diggings of the South. Thereupon he commenced searching for gold on this side of Hauraki, till he reached Pukorokoro. No gold was found by him on this side. Paratene then crossed to the other side of Hauraki, and went on with his work, and at length found a place where there was much gold. He showed che gold to Mr. Eogan and to T>r. Pollen, officers of the Government. Thereupon, gold-diggers were sent by the Government; and all 1 men agreed that there was plenty of gold at the place pointed • out to the Government by Paratene Puhai. Therefore, we say, pay , over the £5,000 of the notice to Paratene : so ' shall Government notices have force hereafter.. ~Do not muzzle the mouths of the oxen. Give the whole money in a lump ; for there was nothing said in the notice of giving a portion of; it only. - ; >, "Listen ! Your laws are obeyed by us. Do not allow our rights to be set at nought by you ; rather, let your consent agree with the justice of our words. > Let not the word of your notice err, lest it be said it was a deception _. You have a saying, ' Let the law be matia ruler.' We thinkthat justice gives to "lawjits force. -,-, ,-, ~,> -, - , , 7 MO friend Superintendent, we have learned in tne law. Therefore, - O friend, be strong on the side of the good law —i.e., justice. Do fcot begrudge' the promised'thousands of 1 youi' notice. 1 " From HaoraTipa. < " From Tamati Tancutertjeu. 1 "From the assembly of the tribe' in j ~'r ," - tlie'province of Auckland.";. , "
