HE KUPU APITI.
Na te nui o te mahi i roto i te Whare Perehi a te Kawanatanga ka mahue te ra hei putanga mo te Waka Maori nei, ka pahemo etahi ra i muri nei i taua ra katahi ka puta; no konei matou ka whai takiwa hei whakaatutanga ki o matou tini hoa Maori, ko te mahinga atu o te Waka Maori ka whakamutua —te take i mutu ai, na nga mahi ate Whare Runanga ote mQtu. Xte poo te 17 o nga ra o Oketopa nei, ka puta te kupu a te !Riihi kia whakakorea nga moni e £4OO a te Kawanatanga i waiho hei oranga mo te Waka Maori, a whakaaetia ana e te Whare taua kupu—-tokotoru tonu te pahikatanga ake o te hunga turaki, tona tokomahatanga ake i te hunga whakatu, no konei ka kore te Waka nei. Ko tera tangata ko te Riihi, he tangata ia no roto i te hunga e whakahoa ana ki a te Hihana, te " roia a Kahungunu," (e ai ki ta te Wananga ote 7 o Oketopa nei). E tino mohio ana matou akuanei te nui rawa ai te pouri o nga iwi Maori katqa o Niu Tirani ki tenei rongo. Ta matou kupu tenei ki o matou hoa Maori, ara i nga tau te kau ma toru i whakaterea nei e matou tenei Waka, he'oi to matou tino whakaaro ko te ora anake mo te iwi Maori; korero tonu ai matou ki a ratou i nga kupu Pono me nga kupu Tika, a he oranga ngakau no matou te whakapai a nga Maori ki te pai o ta matou mahi me ta ratou whakapono mai ki a matou i roto i aua tau. Ko ta matou kupu tonu tenei, ara "Ko te Tika, ko te Pono, ko te Aroha."
