He Taone Aataahua.
Tera tetahi taone e hanga ana, e karangatia ana ko Whitiia, e rima maero kite rawhiti o Haretona (Charleston), i Amerika. Ko te ingoa o taua taone, he mea tapa mai i te ingoa o Taakuta Whitiia, he tangata ranga-tira-nui no Karaponia, nana i whakatu, nana i hanga taua taone. A inaiariei, kua hokoa e ia nga eka e ono tekau mano (60,000), i roto i nga Kaaute e rua, e karangatia ana ko Weini, me Hakihana, a tera pea e hokoa ano e ia etahi eka atu e toru tekau mano (30,000), mo runga ano i tenei huarahi. E ai te kii, ko tenei whenua ka roherohea e ia kia maha nga piihi-whenua hei paamu, kia puta tika ai tenei whakaaro i hangaa ai e ia hei taone e ora ai te tansjata. Ko te waahi nui o tenei taone, ka
whakaturia ki runga i te paamu i Tarekapa, ko taua paamu lie maania katoa, e toru pea tekau putu te tawhiti mai kite rorinui. E waru nga toa kou mete tini noa atu o nga whare e mahia ana. Ko te mea miharo o tenei taone, ko nga ture mo te kore hoko-waipiro. Kua rite katoa nga tikanga mo te kore hoko, mo te kore hanga i nga waiwhakahaurangi. Waihoki, kua tino whakatapua kaua rawa aua wai-kaapura e tukua mai kite taone, ki roto ranei i nga rohe o taua whenua. I tae pea kite kotaki tekau maero o te whenua ki tetahi taha ki tetahi taha. Tera ano tetalii ture pai, he kawenata mo nga riiri hoko katoa. E kii ana, mehemea ka tahuri te tangata kite hanga ki te hoko pokanoa ranei i nga waihaurangi i runga i aua whenua, ka whakahokia ana whenua kia Taakuta Whitiia ki nga uri ranei o taua taakuta. E tau ana tenei ture ki runga i nga whenua i waho mai o Whitiia mete ono tekau mano eka kua oti nei te hoko. I whakaae nga tangata katoa ki enei tikanga me enei i take katoa a te taakuta.
