HE WHARANGI TUWHERA.
Ko nga Pakeha matau kite Reo Maori e tuhi mai ana ki tenei nupepa me tuhi mai a ratou reta ki nga reo e rua—te reo Maori mete reo Pakeha ano. Ki a te Kai Tuhi o te Waka Maori. Mokoia, Mei, 29, 1875. E hoa, —Tena koe. Mau pea e whakaatu tenei reta ki o tatou hoa Pakeha, Maori hoki. Tenei tetahi mate nui kua pa ki tenei takiwa, ki Rotorua. No te 27 o nga ra o Mei, ka rere mai te "Waka i Ohinemutu ki Mokoia, tokotoru nga Pakeha o runga ko Arama, ko Keepa, ko Kirikirana nga ingoa. E kaha ana te pupuhi ote hau i taua ra, a kotahi pea maero te tawhiti mai o uta katahi ka tu mai te ngaru ka taupokina tonutia iho te waka, taka atu ana ratou tokotoru kite Roto kaukau haere ai. Ka hurihia ano te waka ete ngaru, ka eke ano nga Pakeha ki runga, kihai i roa kua tu mai ano te ngaru ; no konei ka whiua a Kirikirana ki raro o te waka, a mate tonu atu. Ko ona hoa i mau tonu i runga ite waka; kitea atu ana e nga tangata o uta, ara e Ngatiteroro-o-te-rangi, te tahuritanga, kokiritia ana e ratou he waka hei whakaora i aua Pakeha, otira kahore rawa i taea he nui no te ngaru. Katahi ka whakaaro nga rnaori tokorua, ko "Whititera te Waiatua raua ko Te TJa Korakai, kia kau atu raua ; rokohanga atu e pupuri tonu ana i runga i te waka, ka whano ka mate tetahi, he roa no te nohoanga i roto i the wai. Katahi ka .whakaterea haeretia mai ki uta ka u ki waho tonu o te wai o Hinemoa. No konei ka tangohia aua Pakeha nei ka whakanohoia ki roto kite wai mahana, a kaore i taro kua ahua ora ano raua; hoatu ana hoki he kakahu maroke.
E hoa ma, ka nui taku whakamiharo ki enei tangata ki a Whititera raua ko Te TTa Korokai mo ta raua kaha kite whakaora i enei Pakeha, hawhe maero hoki pea ta raua kaimga atu ki waho i te moana. A atawhaitia nuitia hoki aua Pakeha nei i runga i to raua mate. Na Rongomai Whaeeattja.
