Kereti Tei Ringa McDonnell Scott Many former comrades of the Maori Battalion and military personnel attended the funeral of Mr K. T. R. McD. Scott, which took place on 22 February at the Putiki cemetery. St Paul's Memorial Church was crowded, and many had to remain outside. Those taking part in the service included the Revd C. Shortland, vicar of Putiki, the Revd Keith Elliott, V.C., a personal friend of Mr Scott and a former vicar of Putiki, and Canon Taepa. During the service Mr Elliott paid tribute to Mr Scott's memory, stating that he was a staunch friend and a valued citizen. The large and representative gathering that day was eloquent testimony of the high regard in which he was held, said Mr Elliott.
