TAITAPU.
Kotahi te kaipuke nui o Ingarani, e rere mai ana ki Nepia nei, kua pae ki uta kite Taitapu, i Wakapuaka, i te 4 o nga ra o Hepetema nei. Tomo tonu taua kaipuke i te hanga; no te pakarutauga, kei uta katoa e pae ana. Ko te Meeti anake i mate. No te paeuga ki uta ka kitea atu e rere ana mai uga maori ki tatahi; rere
tonu mai ki roto kite tai, ka mau ki tetahi pito o te aho i whiua atu e nga pakeha o runga o taua kaipuke, ka whitikina e nga pakeha taua aho kite taura rarahi, katahi ka kumea ki uta e nga maori, ka whakamaua kite toka ki uta. Heoi, puta ana nga pakeha ki uta ma runga i taua taura ; he hanga whakamomori ia i te tahurihuritanga o te kaipuke i te ngaru—he mea ano ka tukua te tangata e haere ana ite taura ki rote wai i te takorokorotanga o te taura, muri iho ka takiri kinotia ake i te marotanga—mau kita te tangata. E nui ana te whakamihi ki nga maori o reira mo to ratau atawhai ki aua pakeha—ki te rere mai ki rote wai ki nga tangata e haere atu ana i ruuga i te taura, kite tahu ahi hei iuainanga, kite homai kai, kite whakarite whare ito ratau kaiujja mo nga morehu. Ko Matene, ko Ropata, ko Huria (he wahine) nga mea e kiia aua i tino kaha kite whakaora i nga pakeha. E korerotia ana kia whakaritea te aroha o aua tangata. Ko te Teraweera te iugoa o taua kaipuke. Tokotoru nga tangata maori, he karere no Waikato, kua hopokina i reira (i Nerehana i te Taitapu) e te pakeha. E whakahauhau ana aua tangata i nga maori o reira kia tahuri kite luiwauatanga. Ivo o ratou ingoa, ko Wiremu te Rekereke, ko Tamihana, ko Poharama Tohe Kore. E meatia aua kia mauria ki Akarana whaka■vvakia ai.
