TEMUTU TERAHO One of the oldest of the prominent Maori elders in South Taranaki, Mr Te Raho Te Mutu, died at his home at Ohangai, near Hawera, aged 98. Mr Te Mutu spent most of his long life in Taranaki and was well known as a leader of the Ngatiruanui tribe. As a young man he became a follower of the two Maori prophets, Tohu and Te Whiti, and he was at Parihaka when the Armed Constabulary marched on the Maori centre to take Te Whiti in 1881. In his younger days Mr Te Mutu was an athlete and a fine footballer. His other interests included music, and he was secretary of the Ruanui Brass Band, a band of Maori musicians who were well known in Taranaki towards the end of last century.
