No doubt few European people are aware that it is contrary to Maori custom to receive distinguished visitors in traditional native style except in the daytime. Foi’ that reason there will bo no formal reception to the Duke of Gloucester at Te Poho-o-Rawiri, states the “Poverty Bay Herald.” It was suggested that a welcome should be given to the Duke at the meeting house, and that he should be asked to lay tho foundation stone of the church, but the elders of .the Maori people consider that it would not be fitting for so distinguished a personage as the Duke to be received at Te Poho-o-Rawiri in anything but the customary native manner. Since such a welcome may not be given at night, according to Maori custom, if the Duke visits the meeting house, there will be no formality about his arrival. The Maori people there will he glad of the privilege of receiving the Duke at To Poho-o-Rawiri as a visitor. The request that he should be asked to lay the foundation stone has been forwarded to the authorities of the Department of Internal Affairs.
