HORI TANA REWI MANIAPOTO Hori Tana Rewi Maniapoto, aged 83, died at Otorohanga last February. Known also as George Turner, he was the adopted son of the famous Rewi Maniapoto to whom he was related. His talent was oratory and his mission in life the advancement of his race. Until recently, he would travel through the country alone to speak on Maori questions. He would appear suddenly in some isolated district, address the people, then disappear to turn up several days later in a place hundreds of miles away. He was one of the leading figures in the establishment of the Tainui Trust Board. In his earlier days he fought for the continued prohibition of liquor from the King Country, but in recent years he came to believe that this state was retarding the country.
