HOKINGA KI TE WA KAINGA.
Ki Te Pipiwuar.au roa. XT' I nga hoa i nga wahi mamao katahi ano -I \ au ka whakaatu kia tika ai te rere mai o a koutou reta aroha ki au no te mea kai te ahu ke ki taku kainga i noho ai i enei tau maha ka mahue ake nei. No Hanuere 3 1906, ka 11 au me toku hunuku ki Turanga (Gisborne), he hoki mai tenei ki te kainga i whanau ai i whakatipuria ai. No te tau 1893 ka tae au ki Waikato, ano te 1906 ka tae mai i te hiahia o te pihopa o Waiapn kia hoki mai au. I hoki mai au i runga i nga poroporoaki maha a toku iwi aroha a Waikato. He nui nga roimata i ringitia, o ratau o matau hoki, a e mau tonu nei te aroha kia mohio mai hoki ko nga tohu aroha a nga taha e 2 nui atu ara, pakeha, maori. I kite au kite kaha o te aroha o nga pakeha o Waikato he aroha karaitiana ara he aroha tinihanga kore. He tino taonga Maori nga tohu aroha a oku rangatira o Waikato ki au. Ko te whare i panuitia e au kite Pipi i au e noho ana i Waikato he toko maha nga tangata i tuku moni ake. Waiho atu eau ka oti te whare hui he mea hanga ki aua moni, na te mate o nga kai i te mate taewa nei i kore ai e kawaia i tenei. Raumati ka mahue ake nei e hatekau pauna kai te peeke hei kaupapa mo te pereti kohi moni mo te whare karakia kite Paina ina tomokia te whare Maori. Tera ano e panuitia. ■ Heoi, Ma te Atua a Waikato e manaaki tae mai ki konei. Na Nikora Tautau.
