E tangihia ana tetahi ragatira maori e ona hoa tini. He kaumatua ia e whakahonoretia nuitia ana. I MAHUE I A IA TONA KAINGA HE WHAKAARO KI TE KONGO PAL I AROHAINA NUITIA IA E TOXA IWI I NIL" TIREXI. I WHAKAHAERE TIKAXGA IA I RUXGA I A RATAL' MO XGA TAU MAHA. No te 4 o nga haora o te 17 o nga ra o 0 Oketopa nei ka moe tetahi koroua no Niu Tireni i te moenga-roa, he rangatim nui a ia no tetahi o nga bapu uui o te Tai Kawhiti o Aotearoa. I mate taua koroua ki te Ohipera o te Hunga Tapu. I takoto mate ia mo nga wiki e rua, a kotahi tekau o ona ra kite Ohipera. I kawea ia ki reira i te kitenga kua kino haere tona mate. Kite ahua kei te mama haere tona mate mo tetahi \vi, otira, e hee ana tona koroheketanga, no reira kua ata heke haere ia mo enei ra torutoru kuahori ake nei. I tahuri a Hirini Whaanga kite Hahi "Moromona" a, i 11 tonu ia ki tona Whakapono tupu. Koia tetahi o nga tangata tuatahi, nana i powhin mai nga Kai-kauhau mete whakatu i tetahi hui mo ratau i roto i tona iwi. I whakafcahuritia wawetia mai ia, a, na Hoani Tuati ia i iriiri i te tau 1882. 1 a ia ka ahua mohio ki nga tikanga o te Hahi, ka whakapuaki ia i tetahi hiahia kia haere ia ki Hiona, kia mahi i te mahi i roto i te Temepara o ona tupuna. I te tau 1894, ka whakarhea e ia tona hiahia, kawea ana e ia tetahi waahi o tona whare, a ka noho ia ki Kanapa. Kotahi tau ka haere mai ia kite pa i Salt Lake, a, mai i taua wa e bono tonu ana ana mahi kite Temepara. Eo tona kainga noho kei 817 We.st Eighth South Street, kei reira tonu e noho ana tana wahine a Mere Whaanga. me tetahi ona taokefce Wihine, tetahi oua mokopnna, toko-
rua ona iramutu taane kotahi te iramutu wahine kei Niu Tireni na, tokotoru ona tamahine, kua moe taane katoa. Na te hui Maori o Hiona i hoko te marae te whare mo taua rangatira. Ko taua hui Maori he huihuinga no nga Kaumatua kua mahi i rote i te Mihana i Niu Tireni: a, i atawhaitia ratau e Hirini Whaanga 1 tona ake kainga. I mate a Hirini Whaanga ki Salt Lake City, kei aua noa atu tona iwi, ite waahi i noho ai iai tona taitamaritanga. Otira e kore te tangihanga mete karakiatanga tupapaku e waiho ki tenei wahi anake o te ao. £ tona ake iwi e whakahonoretia tonutia ana ia hei kai whakahaere mo ratau. he mokopuna ia no tetahi whakapaparanga roa o ratau tatai rangatira. I nga tau e whitu kua pahure ake nei, ka hoki ia kite torotoro i tona iwi, a, ka whakahonoretia ia e ratau ano he kingi, na kia paku te rongo o tona matenga ki Niu Tireni i te mea ka tangihia aia enga mano o tona iwi. I Salt Lake City, e whakahonoretia nuitia ana ia e te iwi e matau ana ki a ia, a, tern nga Kaumatua o te huihuinga Maori o Hiona kua rongo kua turorotia taua rangaratira katahi ka whakaritea e ratau tetahi komiti o taua huihuinga, hei whakahaere tikanga mona.

Ko 1baka Whaanga tona papa, i puta ia i roto i tetahi whakapaparanga roa o nga rangatira, o te bapu o N'Kahungunu o te iwi Maori o Niu Tireni.
