HE whakawa tenei i hinga ai a Tokomauri, he tohunga no Petane, mo tana tinihangatanga i a te Hawira Manihera me Hera l aniwha, mo te matenga hoki o ta raua tamaiti. I mua o te whakatau ka patai ake te Hati “ Kaore o korero kia kore ai e puta te whakatau a te kooti mou.” Ka tu te roia a te Tokomauri, i inch atu ia kite Tiati kia tukua taua tohunga kia haere, ina hoki ka warn marama inaianei kaore ano ia i mahi i nga mahi a te tohunga, i kawea hoki kite wbare-herehere i a Hanuere kua hori ake nei tetahi tohunga ( a Hone Poti) e Tiati Tenihana mo enei tu mahi, a no taua ra tae noa ki naianei kaore ano ia i mahi i aua tu hanga. I whakaatu ake te Apiha Poropeihana (te tangata hei uiui i te pai i te kino ranei o n'ga herehere ) kite Tiati, kite tukua taua tohunga kia haere, tera ia e hoki ki tuna iwi, whakanui haere i a ia. ina hoki na tana atuatanga kore noa iho i kaha te Tiati me Huuri kite whin i a i 1; whakaae atu ana te Tiati. Ko tana whakatau tenei:— “ E te herehere e tu mai nei, ko to ham i hopungia ai koe, he hara tino kino rawa atu. 1 riro atu i a koe ito mahi tinihanga, tetahi moni a nga matua o tetahi tamaiti e takoto mate ana, nau hoki i korero atu he laipo kei roto i taua tamaiti, a kite ulna ki a koe e 37 nga 7/- ka peia e koe aua taip )ki waho. Kaore i utua katoatia kia koe taua moni, engari ko tetahi wahi e £2 10s. i rir atu, ako te mea tino pouri rawa oto mahi, i runga i to tohulohutanga kawea ana taua tamaiti kite wai, ana reira pea i whakamate atu taua tamaiti. Kaore koe i whakaaro ake ki to kopekatanga i nga matua o taua tamaiti, te whakaaro hoki koe kei mate taua tamaiti i to mahi. Ko enei tu mahi a nga tohunga ka pehia rawatia ete ringa kaha ote Ture. Kia mohio hoki te iwi Maori, ka whiua kinotia nga tangata e mahi ana i enei tu mahi, a kia mohio hoki taua iwi ki tc tino mana-kore o tenei tu hanga—te tohunga—ki te makutu i te Tiati mete Huuri. is. te whiu ate Kooti mou, me kawe koe kite wnre-herehere i Nepia, ki reira wawahi kohalu ai mo tu tau kotahi.”
