OPOTIKI.
Kaore he tikanga korero o Opotiki. Ko nga pakeha me nga maori (te Arawa) kua tae ki uta ki nga kainga o te Hau Hau; ka po wha ka po rima e haere ana ka hoki mai ki Whakatane. Kotahi te Hau Hau, he rangatira no te Urewera, i mate ki Otara na te Arawa i pupubi—ko Hoani Korotanga te ingoa. So nga tangata o te pa i tahuti i te taenga atu o te pakeha raua ko te Arawa. He pono ranei he parau ranei te korero e ki ana kua tahuri kite kai tangata te Hau Hau i taua kainga, i Opotiki. He pa no
nga maori Kuini i runga i tetahi moutere i te awa i Ohiwa etu una—i waenganui o Whakatane o Opotiki. lvo nga tangata o ro pa e korerotia ana kua riro ki tetahi kainga. tokorua tonu nga tiaki ote pa. Katahi ka puta mai te ope Hau Hau ka patua nga tokorua nei ka tapatapahia nga tinana —kainija iho! Eki ana bei kai n)a ratou nga tangata katoa e mau ana i a ratau. Katahi te mahi whakarihariha—kowai e inanawanui ki tenei ritenga o te pouritanga ka tupu hou mai nei i roto i a tatou i tenei takiwa o te maratuatanga o te ngakau o te tanirata ?
