REWETI KOHERE In Reweti Kohere, this magazine has lost one of its most valued contributors. Every reader of Te Ao Hou knows his scholarly presentation of Maori songs, and this was only one facet of his work. His profound love of the Maori language and its literary heritage was almost unequalled in our time. It was only towards the end of his life that he began to publish books in English. These works will have a special place in our literature, and will be treasured by all who knew him. In our next issue we shall publish an appreciation of Reweti Kohere by the Rev. Dan Kaa. On this this and the previous page we reproduce a contribution which he wrote for Te Ao Hou shortly before his death which shows his strong grasp of Maori language and history.
