Friend Mr. Williamson, — Let the conduct of affairs in relation to the paopie be just, both as respects the Maories and the Europeans, SO that good or peace may grow up amongst ua. Although there be confusion or trouble, K-t matters be carefully administered as respects yourselves nnd us Maoric, fo thit a Superintendent may be set up Hi e. yourself] who will interest himself in relation to the European who leaws land from the Haories, and the Maories who sell land to tne European. If these things are not attended ro, they will go wrong, namely the leasing and sale i-i lands. And now bo quick and arrange tte.-0 matters, so that your good regulations may be sll UF I avu greatly pleased with your words, for those who are poor will become possessed of tnat "»«■*- the great possession is living in peace. Enough lionyour loving friend, EAtIIA TE KAOvAr. To Mr. Williamson, Auckland.
