F. L. Jonas, photo. SCENE AT "MOTUTARA,” HON. E. MITCHELSON’S WEST COAST. SUMMER RESIDENCE
AN ECHO OF OLD-TIME TROUBLE. This photograph, which was taken by Lord Onslow, was kindly lent by the Hon. E. Mitchelson. The Maori on the left is Hauanru. the prime mover in the eviction of our late visitor, Sir John Gorst, a his printing press from Te Awamutu during the Maori war. His companion is Taonui, brother to King Tawhiao. In those exciting days Sir John edited “Te Pihoihoi," to counteract the in fluence of old Patara te Tuhi’s “Hokioi,” and as the pakeha's eloquence proved too strong for them, the Maoris carted away his plant press, type, and all — to Kihikihi.
