PITOPITO KORERO.
ITU he whakakitekite tangata nunui kite whenua o te Wiwi, kitea ana tetahi tangata e 22 ona tau, ko te roa e 9 putu e 2 inihi, ko tona taumaha e32 toone. Kua taumautia ia ki tetahi wahine e 8 putu e 3 inihi te roa. Kua whakawhaititia te rohe o te takutai i whakatapua nei i te matenga o nga tamariki o te Whanau-a-Apanui, ki Motu : Kei Hauriri ki Toka-puta ki Te Kaha, ki Orongo-i-Hunui; ko Orongo-i-Hunui ki Toka-puta. Kanui te manaaki a te iwi o Kanata i te Tiuka raua ko tana hoa. Hei nga ra timatanga o Noema tae ai raua ki Ingarangi; e eke mai ana te Kingi me te Kuini ki runga ite iata kingi kite powhiri i a raua. Kei te haereere hoki te Ta ( Emepara) o Ruhia raua ko tana hoa. I nui te powhiritanga ate iwi i a raua. Kaore e wehi Ite ‘‘anakihi” ka noho i te kainga. Ki ta matou whakaaro e kore nga iwi e haere ki Ingarangi; ko te haere, e haere hoia, pera mete haerenga kite Taimana Tiupiri. E kore pea te minita e whakaaro ko nga taitama e haere me kowhiri mai i nga iwi katoa o Niu Tireni. Ma ratou noa e whakaatu a tatou mahi haka ki te pakeha. Kua whakahaua e te Kawanatanga a Hare Hongi (Stowell ) o Hawera kia haere kite kohikohi i nga taonga maori ka whakawhaiti ai ki tetahi wahi pai takoto ai, he tupato no te Kawanatanga kei ngaro rawa nga taonga a te Maori ito ratou whenua. Tera hoki e hangaia he ture hei arai i nga taonga maori kei mauria ki era atu whenua. Kua papahoro ra hoki i te Tiuka. O nga pirimia katoa o Ahitereiria me Niu Tireni no Te Hetana te utu nui atu, £\ Boo, haunga te utu ona haereerenga ; o nga pirimia o tawahi ki £IOOO. O te tumuaki o nga kai whakarite whakawa o tawahi e £3500, o to Niu Tireni /1700. O tetahi mahi atu ano a te Pirimia e £2.30. He pirimia horo moni rawa a Te Hetana. I te hui i tu ki Waitakaro, Waiapu, he kawanga whare karakia, whare-whakairo, i tata kite te moni kohi. I mea a Apirana Ngata pai atu nga haka a te Awemapara i nga haka i Rotorua.
