Dan Kingi Raniera Te Tawhiti Kingi, a chief of the Arawa confederation of tribes and a leading Ngati Whakaue elder, died at his home in Rotorua aged 75. He was one of the few people left who had been born on Mokoia Island, in the middle of Lake Rotorua. Mr Kingi was educated at Rotorua Primary School and Te Aute College. He served in the First World War, and was invalided home after being gassed. When the Arawa Maori Trust Board was formed in 1924, Dan Kingi became its secretary, a position he held for 21 years until ill-health, the result of his war injuries, forced him to retire. His services to his people were recognised by the award of an O.B.E. in the Queen's Birthday Honours in 1966.
