                                   TE WANANGA,
     And, if any person wishes to ask for a copy of this
paper to write his proper name, and residence, so that
we  shall understand where to send them, and  also
(Tainui) to send his proper name instead of (Tainui.)


     Friend, the reason that each canoe (tribe) has to
state its price, is because this Press is for the whole
 Island, ana therefore we cannot best show these reasons .
 to our canoes (tribe.)

     When   you vote, call together the tribe or persons
to see their votes, Magistrates, Policeman,  or Chiefs
and also write their names so that we may approve of
them.


     If any tribe or hapu, do not know the meaning
 of voting, and if any anxious for the Wananga, We
 have elected a Committee for the Wananga, and also a
 Chairman whio will have authority from the Committee,
 Although they may be four or five Members, and also
 write their names at the end of these words.
     Friends,  If a canoe (tribe) or canoes (tribes,) are
 anxious of voting that there should not be any price for
 the paper, we will not accept it. There is the  Post
 Office it must have a stamp or else the Mail wont take
 it, and also the persons who are working at the Press,
 they must be paid so that will be the difficulty, if you
 vote that there should not be any pay for the paper.

      The first voting will be for the Committee.
      The second, will be for the Chairman.

      Thirdly, and also* a person under the Chairman,
  and also others persons under them if you are anxious
  for this work.

      Fourthly, the price for the paper, by the year or
  by the month.
       All the words to be looked into.  And  also state
  your returns and the electing of the Committee, and
  also send the principal word of different canoes (tribes)
  and fix a proper method for us to see and think of


       Friends, when you send  letters to the Wananga,
  please direct it thus, Henry  Tomoana,   Pakowhai
  Napier.

       Do  hot  direct on   the  envelope, Heretaunga,
  which will not reach us. And  at the beginning insert
  it thus.

       To  the Editor of the Wananga, please to allow my
  words to be inserted i n the Wananga.

       Here  another word, if we see that there will be
  any word that will be; detrimental to the Wananga
   we will not insert it, but will look over it and correct
   the words alluding to person or persons.
     A, ki te hiahia koutou ki te tono Nuipepa mai kia
marama  te tuhi i te ingoa o te tangata e hiahia ana,
me te kainga e noho ana, kia marama ai hoki te tuku-
nga atu, me whakarere  tenei ingoa a Tainui te tuhi
mai, erangi me tuhi tonu i te ingoa o te tangata.

    Na, e hoa ma, ko te huarahi i tukua ai ma ia waka
ma ia waka e karanga tana utu, no te mea i huaina hei
Perehi mo te motu katoa, koia ra e kore rawa e mutu
tenei whakaaro kia whakaaturia ki b tatou waka.

     Me penei  te Pooiti, me huihui ki te wahi kotahi
me whakamana   e te iwi etahi tangata hei kai titiro mo
nga  Pooti, kai  whakawa   ranei, Pirihimana  ranei, •
Rangatira ranei, me tuhi iho ano nga ingoa kia whai-
mana ai hei tirohanga ma matou.

     Mehemea  kahore  tetahi iwi, Hapu ranei e mohio

ana kia Te Wananga, ko to matou Komiti kua tu mo
Te Wananga,  me te Tumuaki, ka whakamanaia tena e
te Komiti Tuturu,  ahakoa toko-rima, toko-wha ranei,
me tuhi iho o ratou ingoa ki te whakamutunga o aua
kupu.

     E hoa ma, ki te hiahia etahi waka nga waka ranei,
 ki te Pooti, kia kore he utu, e kore e whakaaetia ko
 te he, kei nga Poohi Tapeta, e kore e tukua kia haere,
 kahore hoki he Heti e ahei ai kia tukua ki te Meera
 tetahi, ka mate hoki nga kai mahi, kei te tangata i te
 Perehi tetahi, heoi nga tino mate hei whakahe  i te
 Pooti kia kore he utu mo te Nuipepa.  

     Ko  te mea tuatahi hei Pootitanga, ko te Komiti.
     Te mea tuarua, kia tu he Tumuaki.

      Tuatoru, ko to raro iho i te Tumuaki, me  to raro
 iho, me to raro rawa, mehemea ia he hiahia ki tenei
 mahi.
                                                  
     Te mea tuawha  ko te utu mo te Nupepa, he utu
 tau ranei he utu marama ranei,
     Kia puta katoa ena kupu me nga whakautu me te
 tuunga o nga komiti, ka puta mai nga tino kupu a ia
 waka a ia waka ka whakapumautia etahi tikanga nui,
  lei whakaaro hei matakitaki, ma tatou. Heoi a matou
  kupu.

      E hoa  ma ki te tuku reta mai koutou  kia Te
  Wananga,  me  Penei te ingoa o te whare o waho kia
  Henare Tomoana, kei Pakowhai, Nepia.

      Kaua  he ingoa Heretaunga  ki waho, ekore e tae
  mai ki a matou, mo  te timatanga tenei o te kupu mo
  nga korero.

      Ki te kai tuku o te Wananga, me tuku atu aku
  kupu kia te Wananga, heoi tena.  

       Tenei ano tetahi kupu  ki te kite iho matou e he
  ana tetahi kupu tena a Te Wananga e whakawakia, e
  kore  e tukua-engari ma  matou  e whakatika kia tika
  tana kupu e ahua whakakino ana, ki te tangata, e ahua
   whakapae ana ranei.
