AHURIRI.
Kua rongo matou kite tino aronga mai o nga tangata Maori o Ahuriri ki nga Apiha o Panora te kaipuke ote Kuini. Nui atu to matou manawapa ki tenei mahi o aua tangata, koa tonu te ngakau i runga o tenei tuhituhinga. Ko te kai i tukua noatia, ko nga hoiho i kawea kautia atu e nga iangata, mo taua iwi Pakelia whakatatutu. Kiliai rawa tetalii ut.u i tonoaHe mahi ahuareka tenei, he malii tikanga nui, a, ma te mahi penci, ka kitea te lie o nga kupu kua whakairia ki runga ki nga tangata o enei motu mo te manawapopore, mo to ratou owlia kore. E tika ianei te kupu ki nga tangata o Ahuriri ■\e, ko ratou, "te hunga tino apo i roto i te ao katoa?" Kahore. Otira, e mea ana matou he tini nga hapuo Niu Tireni e rite ana ki a ratou. He ritenga Maori ano enei, no namata; a, ko matou e mea ana, me pupuri i nga ritenga penei, kaua rawa e whakarerca, e nga iwi Maori. He tokomaha pea o ratou a penei mai, " E tohea nei matou e nga Pakelia, kia whakarerea katoatia nga ritenga Maori, a, ka anga nei ano, ka mea kia puritia ?" E tika ana tenei kupu. lie nui te korero ote Pakelia kia whakarerea nga ritenga Maori katoa, a, kia tangohia mai ko o matou nnake. Otiia, kati ano rate wa 1110 te mahi pokehe, ko tenei kua pahure. I tenei wahi, kia ata rongo nga iwi katoa o te motu nei, ko nga ritenga kino, ahakoa na te Pakeha, ahakoa na te tangata Maori, me wbakarere rawa ; ko nga ritenga pai ia, me mahi tonu i era, e takoto ake nei.
