Heoi ano aku kupu.
NGA KUPU O TE PUTEA A "TE PAKI
O MATARIKI."
Whakarongo mai e nga Iwi me nga hapu.
Ka penei tonu taku haere atu kia kite ia
koutou i roto i nga ra, i nga marama,
me nga tau, e haere mai nei; he ahakoa
koutou te hoha mai ai he ahakoa i te mea
kei te mohio atu ano ahau kei te nga-
ro haere o tatou tikanga ia tatou; A ka
korerotia atu nei e ahau etehi Tikanga
kua wareware haere pea ia tatou. I te
takiwa ka tu a Potatau hei Kiingi,
i Whakaarahia ki Ngaruawahia, i Waikato,
he mea whakaae na te Iwi katoa. Otira, ko te
tikanga nui i Whakaarahia ai taua Kiingi,
hei puru mo te toto, hei pupuru i nga whe-
nua, hei wehewehe i to kino a tetehi Hapu,
ki tetehi Hapu; a tetehi Iwi, ki tetehi Iwi;
a tetehi Rangatiratanga, ki tetehi Rangatira-
tanga o to Iwi Maori. Koia nei nga tino
putake i Tu ai taua Kiingi. Waihotia ana ta-
ua putake nei a te Iwi Maori, hei mea whaka-
miharo ma ratou ano kia ratou whakamaori,
i te mea ka noho rangimarie ratou, tetehi me
tetehi, ka pupuru hoki i o ratou whenua. Ko
nga Pou pupuru whenua tenei i tukua ki raro
i te Kiingitanga o Potatau.
Ko Karioi, Ko Titiokura,
Ko Taranaki. Ko Putauaki,
Ko Kai-iwi, Ko Ngongotaha.
Ko Tararua, Ko Te Aroha.
Ko nga Pou Whenua, tenei i tukua o nga
Iwi nona aua whenua, ki raro i te Kiingita-
nga o Potatau. I tena taima e ahua pai
ana ano nga whenua o nga Iwi Maori, e
noho nei i tenei Motu, i to mea hoki, e riri
tonu ana ma te Kawanatanga o te Kuini,
o whakahaere etehi o nga tikanga, mo Nui
Tireni; e ai nua hoki te Tiriti o Waitangi:
hei here i te Kawanatanga o to Kuini,
me nga iwi Maori o Niu Tireni.
Otira, i taua takiwa, kore rawa te Pakeha
i pai kia tu he Kiingi mo te Iwi Maori;
whakahoa ana nga Pakeha ki nga Maori
e hiahia ana ki te hoko whenua. Kaore i
pai te tangata nona te whenua ki te hoko; paua
aua e taua tangata nga kai Ruri. Heoi, Wha-
whaitia ana o to Kawanatanga, tangohia ake
nga whenua. Otira i to takiwa o te Tiriti o Wai-
tangi ho nui noatu te wairangitanga me te kuare
noaiho o te Iwi Maori; ki te hoko noa atu
i ona whenua ki te kohua, ki to paipa, mo
Hear ye also to this word of mine,
your Ancestor's male and female, are
lost (dead,) that is why I say do not
forsake your Love, (Charity) The
ways of your Ancestors was to welcome
strangers to their homes. No matter
who the stranger may he, welcome him
it is not through you welcoming a Chief
only, that you get well spoken of. No,
the lowly shall respect your kindness far
more, who shall say such and such a
man, Nation or Tribe welcomed me to
their homes. This is the great treasure
of your Ancestors who are just lost
(dead) that is to welcome strangers,
that is why I said not to reject your
Love to strangers. Those of us who have
gone to the side of the European's ways
have left the ways of your Ancestors
Male and Female who aro lost (dead)
to us.
Enough of my words.
THE WORDS OUT OF PLEIADS
HAVERSACK
Hear ye, the nations and Tribes, I will
appear to you in the like manner that is in the
days, months, and years, which are coming,
no matter if you find fault, but as some of our
ways are lost to us, I will try and revive your
minds to some of our ways, which you have
perhaps forgotten. At the time that Potatau
was made King, he was Proclaimed at Ngarua-
wahia Waikato by the consent of the whole
Maori nations, their main point in appointing
a King. To stop Bloodshed, and hold the
Land of their Ancestors to settle disputes
of Families Tribes against Tribes, Nations
against nations, and Chief against Chiefs,
this is the reason the King was appointed.
The Kings, movement was left to be a cause of
great rejoicing amongst the Maorie's them-
selves, knowing they would live in peace, and
their Lands would be under the King.,
These are the main Props or supporters
which were placed under King Potatau, to hold
their Lands.
Karioi, Titiokura,
Taranaki, Putauaki,
Kai Iwi, Ngongotaha,
Tararua, Te Aroha.
These are the main props and supporters of
the Maori Nations, who were allianced and had
placed all their Lands under Potatau's pro-
tection in the year 1858, at this time the Ma-
ories and Europeans of this Island were
Friendly, as the Government of the Queen,
wero conducting some of the Laws, of New
Zealand, and the treaty of Waitangi, were
Binding the Government of the Queen, and
the Maori nations of New Zealand, together.
When the Kings movement was started the
Europeans, would not consent for the Maoris
to have a King. But they the Europeans
joined that is encouraged the Maorie's who
wanted to sell the land although the real own-
er of the land did net want to sell, but he the
man, who did not wish to sell went and turned
the Government, surveyor's off from surveying
the Land, the Government, stepped in at this
point and fought against the real owner and
eventually took the Laud. Even alter the Trea-

era atu taonga o hiahiatia ana o ia. E riro
noa atu ana nga • mano eka whenua i to
kohua, i te paipa, o hara nei i te mea, o
rite ana aua taonga hei utu mo taua whe-
nua, heoi, na runga tonu i to kuaretanga
o tenei iwi o te Maori, ka pau nei ona
whenua, i aua taonga o to Pakeha. Ka ti-
mata tonu mai i kona te pa o to mato, ki
nga Iwi Maori. Waihoki, ka timata mui ano
i kona te takahanga o te Tiriti o Waitangi,

1855, ka tahuri te Kawanatanga ki te hoko whe-

tanga hei taunaha mo nga whenua a etahi
Iwi ke, i te mea kaore ano ratou i mohio no
aua tangata te whenua. Ho nui nga Whenua
i Ahuriri, i Waikato mo etahi atu waahi i
riro i taua tu hoko.
No reira, whakatakotoria ana o nga Maori
he rohe ki te awa o Mangatawhiri, mo nga
whenua e purutiti ana o nga Maori. Whaka-
turia ana a Potatau hei Kiingi, hei puhi i
nga tautohe a nga Maori e. hoko aua, mo
nga Maori e pupuru ana. Waihotia aua o
nei take a te Maori hoi kinonga mo nga
Iwi Pakeha, tukua ana o to Kawanatanga
tetehi panuitanga, kia haere atu nga tangata
Maori katoa e piri ana ki to ratou tikanga.

katakotoria nei; i te mutunga o te Whawhai,
tangohia ake nga whenua ; kiia iho, i ho nga
Maori mo te Whawhaitanga kia te Kuini.
Heoi ra, ka nui haere te mate e pa ana ki
te Iwi Maori. I muri i enei Pakanga, ka mahue
te Whawhai-pu, ka hapainga ko te Whawhai
mohiotanga, ka timata ano he mate mo to
iwi Maori', ka tino eke tonu tenei mato ki
taua Iwi kuare nei ki te Maori. Titiro hoki, |
Timata mai i te Tiriti o Waitangi tao mai
ana ki te tau 1864, ko ena Pakanga e riri
ana i te ra e whiti ana, koia i enei kua ko-
rerotia ake nei.
No te Tau 1865, ho Whawhai mohiotanga
tenei, ho Whawhai-whare ; No tena tau
i tukua atu ai he tono ma te Kawanatanga
o Nui Tireni ki te Kawanatanga o te Kuini,
kia tukua whakareretia mai nga tika-
nga o Nui Tireni mana e whakahaere; kia
kana a Ingarangi e pa mai ki to whakahae-
re i Nui Tireni. Heoi, e noho ana nga Ma-
ori i tena taima, kaore e mohio kei te pena
te mahi a nga Iwi Pakeha, a, whakaaetia
mai ana e Ingarangi taua tono a to Kawa-
natanga o Nui Tireni. No te rironga mai o
taua mana, katahi ka tanumia nga kanohi o
te Tiriti o Waitangi, ka purua nga taringa, ka
kopia te waha, e te Kawanatanga o Nui Tireni;
kei titiro mai nga kanohi; koi karanga mai to

Land at Mokau, it was a place of Hostility in
the days of Tawhiaos words, In 1867. Tawhi •
ao proclaimed, for man to cease killing man,
to cease killing the Land, to cease erecting
schools and other works of the Government.
But in 1870, Waitere trampled upon Tawhi-
ao Laws, and he Waitere died at Mokau,
then that word comes in Rau's Fault, Tauta-
hi good works or in this light Tawhiaos fault
to proclaims to cease erecting school and
other works of the Government, but Waitere
trampled upon these words, that is why he
died at that land Mokau, there is only oue
man who can close it, and that is Tawhiao,
that land shall be placed under Tawhiao's

ko Aperahama Pokai, ko te Hira te Tuiri, ko
Pineaha, ko Hata Paaka, ko te Awamutu, ko
te Hiwinui; me te tini atu o nga Rangatira i
rupeke ki taua Hui, me ta ratou whakaae-
tanga. Otira, i reira ano tetahi Rangatira o
Ngapuhi, ko Ihaia Taurangaika te ingoa:—
"Whakapuaki ana ia i tana kupu ki waenga-
nui i taua Hui, mo aua pou whenua i korerotia
nei e Wahanui, tae noa ki nga pou ririki kua
korerotia nei, puta ana te kupu a Ihaia i
reira:" Whakarongo mai e nga Iwi Rangati-
ra e pae nei, maku e hari te pou whakamutunga
o enei pou e korerotia nei ki a Ngapuhi. Toku
whenua ko Kenana, waahi o Mangonui. Toku
Hapu ko te Matarahurahu, Ngapuhi. Ka
tukua e ahau tenei whenua a Kenana ki raro
ki a Kingi Tawhiao, me here toku whenua; me
here ki Moehau, ko taku whakaaetanga tenei
ka tukua nei e ahau ki a Tawhiao i tenei ra.
Heoi, i te mutunga o te whakaaetanga a nga Ra-
ngatira, ka tu a Tawhiao i waenganui tonu i te
Iwi, ratou ko nga Rangatira o taua Hui, me
nga Minita karakia hoki o te Hahi o Ingarangi,
i reira e ta katoa ana ratou: Ka mau te ringa
o Tawhiao ki te Hiiri, ko ana kupu tenei:—
KA HIIRI! KA HIIRI !! KA HIIRITIA!!!
Whakarongo mai, whakarongo mai:— Te
Waka, e tau nei. Titiro mai, titiro mai. Te
Tonga nei, te Marangai, te Hauraro, te ;Hau-
auru. Te Rangi e tu nei, te Papa e takoto,
nga Tangata e pae nei. Ka Hiritia, ka Hi-
ritiia, ka Hiritia ki te ingoa o Kiingi Matutaera.
Heoi, ka mutu ana korero i konei. Katahi
ka Hiritia e ia nga pukapuka, o aua pou
whenua, i korerotia nei e Wahanui ratou ko
nga Rangatira, i taua ra o Mei kua korerotia
ake nei; ko nga pou whenua tenei i tukua ai e
nga Rangatira o te Motu nei, ki raro kia Po-
tatau, i te ra i tu ai ia hei Kiingi, tae noa
mai nei ki tenei ra, ka tukua ano aua whenua
ki raro kia Kiingi Tawhiao.
No te ra ano i noho ai a Tawhiao, ki te To-
rona o tona Papa, no taua takiwa ano i kopi ai
tona ringaringa, ki te pupuru i nga whenua
o ana Iwi Maori, i nga 'Oha' hoki ana Tupuna,
i tukua nei ki raro i tona Papa. Otira, i tenei
takiwa kaore i tino nui te mate i pa ki nga
tangata me te whenua. Heoi ano te tino mate
i taua takiwa, ko te mate i pouaru ai te Wa-
hine, raua ko taana Tamaiti,:— A, no
roto ano i nga tau tata ka mahue nei; katahi
ka tino whanui te mate e pa ki te Motu nei
ki Aotearoa me te Waipounamu. Waihoki,
e nga Iwi, e nga Hapu, e nga Rangatira.
Kihai a Tawhiao i hee ki te Nakahi, mana e
horo te Motu nei; ko taua Nakahi Horowhe-
nua nei, he Kooti Whenua. No te tau 1867,
katahi ka tukua te Panui a Tawhiao, ki nga
Rangatira nona nga whenua i tukua nei kia
Potatau hei pupuru, i panuitia e ia ki Hanga-
tiki, ko ana kupu tenei. " Ko te patu a te
Tangata i te tangata me mutu: • Ko te patu

tau kei te haere mai, tena e haere mai te

i tena takiwa, kei te mau tonu te ahua wehi-
wehi o te kiri o te tangata i te ngaunga a
te mata o te Pu a te Pakeha, me te wha-
karongo ano nga Iwi Maori ki nga kupu a
Tawhiao, kihai nei i mahara penei mo nga
tau kei haere mai te tikanga o aua kupu a
Tawhiao. No reira mai ano i mau ai te kupu
a Tawhiao, kia whakamutua te Kooti, tae noa
mai nei ki te 17 o nga ra o,Mei; kua korerotia
ake nei. Ka tukua noi ano aua whenua kia
Tawhiao hei pupuru: Waihoki, no taua tau
ano 1881, i te 12 o nga ra o Hurae, ka timata
te haere a Tawhiao ki nga takiwa Pakeha,
tae tonu atu ki Mangatawhiri, i te Paina, ki
te Rohe-whenua kua korerotia ake nei. No
tena takiwa, ka tino nui te haere a nga Iwi
Maori ki nga huarahi o to Pakeha, ka ware-
waretia a Tawhiao, me nga kupu kua korerotia
Te Hira te Tuiri, Pineaha, Hata Paaka
te Awamutu, Hiwinui, and a great many more
who were present, and had all agreed to what
Wahanui had said. But there were present
a Chief of Ngapuhi name, Ihaia Taurangaika,
who stood up in the presences of the assembly
and spoke, (re) the supports which Wahanui
had already explained. These were lhaia's
words. Hear ye, the Great Nations who ar
present. I will carry the last Post or
support, to those already mention;—to
Ngapuhi. My land is Cannan, part of Mango
nui, and my Tribe is Matarahurahu Ngapuhi
1 will place this land (Caiman) under Tawhiao
and 1 will tie or join my land to Moehau, this
is my covenant which I make this day and place
under King Tawhiao. Enough. All the Chief
agreed unanimously. Tawhiao stood up in the
middle of the Nations with Chiefs and Maori
Ministers of the Church ot England, who
were all standing up. Tawhiao then, took the
Seal in hia right hand. And those were hi
words.
IT WILL BE SEALED! IT WILL BE SEALED!! IT WLL
BE SEALED !!!
Hear ye! hear ye!! the Canoe here
moves. Look here! look here!! look hear!!!
The North, South, East and West, the
Heavens' above, the Earth beneath, the people
here present. It will be sealed! it will be seal-
ed!! it will be sealed!!! with the name of King
Matutaera. He then sealed the document in
the presence of the assembly and ended his
speech of his supports which Wahanui and
Chiefs spoke of during their debates in May.
These are the same supports which the Chiefs
of this Island placed under Potatau the day Po
tatau was made King, right down to this day.
The same Lands and supports are placed under
King Tawhiao.
Tawhiao closed his hand from the day he
sat upon the Throne of his Father, to hold the
Land of his Maori nation, and the Token of
his Ancestors which was placed under the care
of his Father. At this time the death (grieve-
ance to men and Land was not very great.
The only grievance were, the Woman being
left widows, and children and orphans (War)
it was only recently that the grievance touch
this Island Aotearoa and Waipounamu, as you
the Nations, and Tribes, Chiefs, now see! that
Tawhiao was right about the Serpent who
swallowed the Land, that Serpent is the Land
Court iu 1867. Tawhiao sent his proclama-
tion, to the Chiefs and owners of the Land,
which they gave to King Potatau to hold and
protect, for his people the Maori's, Tawhiao
proclaimed as follows, for Man to cease killing
man, cease killing the Land, cease Left to
left, Right to right, ceise surveying, cease
selling, cease Land-Court's, cease gold pros-
pecting, cease erecting Telegraphs, cease erect-
ing Schools, for Maori assessors to cease, for
Government work to cease; be care-ful of
these years to come, in case this Island,
people come and say, Master I was with
you to the end;—at this time the skins of the
Maori people were still shy of the bites of
the European's Guns, and the Maori people
paid heed to Tawhiaos words for a time.
Tawhiao has ever been firm with his word,
to cease Land Courts, even up to the 17th
day of May, afore-said, the same Land and
people are placed under Tawhiao to hold and
protect. For an instance on the 12th July 1881,
Tawhiao commence to visit the Europeans
side. Tawhiao went to Mangatawhiri, Mercer,
the afore-said Land boundry. At this period
ihe Maori Nations had commence to follow
the white-Mans road, (Ways) and for-got
their covenant with Tawhiao, and Tawhiao's
words. Iu I1884 Tawhiao went to England
with some of the Maori Chiefs. Tawhiao did
not fore-get to leave word —Do not turn to
Land Courts. What did the Maori Nations
care for these words, like the Tribes of Israel,
when Moses and Joshua went up to Mount
Sinii. Moses left word with the Tribes of
Israel not to serve other Gods, but the true
ake nei: — Inahoki, no Mei i korerotia ai,
no Hurae ka warewaretia. Ara, no to tau
1884, ka haere atu a Tawhiao, ki Ingarangi,
ratou ko nga Rangatira Maori, kihai a Ta-
whiao i wareware ki te kii iho, i muri nei,
kaua e tahuri ki te Kooti Whenua. Heoi, hei
aha hold ma nga Iwi Maori. E rite aua ra,
tenei waahi ki te Whanau o Iharaira, i wai -
hotia iho nei e Mohi, raua ko Hohua, i to
raua pikinga ki Maunga Hinai, i kiia iho nei
e Mohi,— Kaua tetehi atua ke atu mu Iharaira,
i muri tonu i a Mohi ma;— Hangaa ana e Iha-
raira, he atua whakapakoko mo ratou, a,
ka hara nei ratou ki te aroaro o te Atua.
Waihoki me tenei, hei hara ano hoki pea tenei
e hara ai ki te Atua.
Waihoki, ko aua kupu a Tawhiao kei te
mau tonu ano i roto i tona ngakau, o reira
mai, a, tae noa mai ki tenei ra. Koia nano te
take i whakatika ia ai nga kupu a Tawhiao o te
timatanga mai, taea noatia naianei, me tena
kupu hoki, kua tukua atu na hei titiro iho
ma koutou. E mea-na a Tawhiao.
I te takiwa e noho ana ahau i Te Kuiti, me
nga Iwi katoa e haere mai ana ki ahau i rei-
ra, nuku mai ki etehi o aku kainga i nohoia
ai e ahau, me taku karanga tonu atu ki a
koutou haere mai; heoi, e tae ana mai etahi o
koutou, kaore etahi o koutou e tae ana mai.
A, no te taima tonu ka tangohia nei e au to
moni a te Pakeha, tere tonu taku kite atu i a,
koutou e haere mai ana, me te karanga ano:
'•Kua Hee ahau, kua mate te Iwi Maori " Na
kona i tika ai te mahara iho, koia ano kua he
a Tawhiao kua mate te Iwi Maori. Engari
nga Hoko Whenua, me nga Kooti Whenua ka
tika a Tawhiao i tera, ka ora hoki te Iwi Maori.
Otira e tino ora ai, kia pau katoa nga whenua,
te hoko katahi ka ora, ka whiwhi whenua i te
takiwa nei hei nohoanga. Tena ra to hanga e
te kuare raua ko te wawau noa iho.
E hoa ma, e nga Iwi e nga Hapu, me nga
Rangatira, na konei ahau i kaha ai ki te haere
atu ki te whakamaharahara ano kia koutou, i
ngakau wareware nei, ki te ahua o tatou tina-
na morehu, e noho nei i te ao. Kei kona tonu
iana te tika e titiro ake aua i roto i o koutou u
ngakau, ki te mara-mara whenua o koutou
Tupuna, Matua e huuna nei ano e tatou e nga
uri e ora nei.
E hoa ma, kei hoha mai koutou ki enei
tini korero aku:— He mahara ake ra, kua
raungaiti rawa to tatou Matua te Whenua,
koia te take i hua ai nga korero atu. Me-
hemea pea, i penei te tere iho o to tatou ki-
te i to tatou mate, me te tere o te kite atu i
te heenga o Tawhiao, i tango nei i te moni
Penihana, penei pea, kei te noho tapu ano
etehi wahi o to tatou Motu, mo tatou, me o
tatou Uri i muri i a tatou. Akua-nei pea, ki
;o te tangata hee, ka mohio tatou, ki tona
ake, te kii-rawa te waha te aha, koia ra tena
e mate nei. Hoatu ana nga whenua ki a Po-
atau hei tiaki, tae noa mai nei ki a Tawhiao ;
ia tukua ano hei tiaki, i muri iho, ka tango-
na ano e ia Iwi, e ia Hapu, e ia Rangatira
aua whenua-ra. " Ka hangaa ki ta ratou nei
ikanga, hei tuku ki a Kanara Koura, raua
ko Nga-hiriwa, me ta raua kotiro, me Raka-
pa:— tona tukunga iho, "haha" te whe-
nua e takoto nei. "Engari pea tenei e hoa

TE PAKI O MATARIKI.
God, as Moses. was gone, the Children o
Israel fore-got his words, and made an Image
to be their God. Here they sinned against
their true God,
This must be sin on the Maori people as Ta
whiao still retained in his heart his words up
to this day, and I say that Tawhiao's words has
been right from the first to the present day
For an instance, Tawhiao says.
At the time I was residing at Te Kuiti, even
when I shifted to my other settlements, I kept
calling to you to come! to comel! to come!!
some of you came and others stayed away, but
as soon as I took the money of the Europeans
(pension) how soon I see you coming to accuse
me, saying you were wrong and the Maori
Race is dead Ruined. But when we come to
think, yes, Tawhiao was wrong, the Maori
Race is ruined, but to sell the Land! Hold
Land Courts Tawhiao would be right in this
work, arid the Maoris would Reap a benefit,
perhaps you the Maoris would Reap a great
benefit when all the land is sold, and you
will have land in, Spare;—just like the ingo-
rant and foolish. ,
Friends the Nations Tribes, and chiefs, this
strengthens me te come and explain how we
the purveyors have fore-gotten the right and
clear way to deal with the Land of your
Ancestors, which you the descendants are
wasting.
Friends, do not find fault with me for
expressing my-self to strong, but looking at
the Land of our Ancestors which dewindling
away, 1 can-not help talking. If we had
.seen our death (Fault) as quick as were of
accusing Tawhiao for takeing the money
(Pension,) I be-lieve some parts of our Island
would be stiil sacred (Safe,) for our off-springs
. after us, we are quit ready to see the fault
of others, but our own mouth are closed, this
is the cause of our suffering. The Iand was
given to Potatau, after Potatau to Tawhiao
to protect for his people. But shortley after
the same Land is taken away by each Nations
Tribes and Chiefs and is evuntually sold for
Colonial Gold and Silver, and their daughters
penny, what is the end of it; the Land is
still there, and you are no better off, perhaps
this kind oi work would be right for Tawhiao
to do, and it would also benefit the Maori
race. I know some of you would say " No'
it would not benefit us, Yes? it is death to
the Nations tribes and Chiefs. Tawhiao take-
ing a pension is nothing compared to your do-
ings, you the Nations Tribes and Chiefs, that
have struck the hardest blow, to this morsel
of Land, which your Ancestors left to you
their descendanst. But now you see Tawhiao
words are coming true, Enough. Re Pension.
Tawhiao has consented to your words" and
has sent his notice to the Government, He is
done with that money, ' pension" and the
part he had received £56 6s shall be returned
wit interest to the Government, Tawhiao
took that money " pension " for no other rea-
son, that his eyes may see, and His Heart
may know, Tawhiao is following the Govern-
ment, that they may work with him, and
make some. " Laws' for this Island, if the
Government would consent to some of His
Laws which He is trying to establish. For
this Maori Nations, but when the Government
saw Tawhiaos aim, they would not consent,
Panui o te 9 o nga ra o Akuhata, kua mahu
ake nei; i pena na,— "Ae, kua tangohia e au
taua moni, kia kite ai oku kanohi, kia mohio a
toku ngakau." I naia nei kua kite ia, kua
mohio hoki tana ngakau, tana whai-hoki; kia
mahi tahi raua ko te Kawanatanga i nga tika
nga mo te Motu nei: Heoi, i tana kitenga me
tana mohiotanga, koia tenei; "Kaore rawa
he mea iti a te tana Maori, e whakaaetia mai e
te taha Pakeha kia tu. Ahakoa nga huihui-
nga Rangatira i te Motu nei, e kore e tu. I naia-
nei maku ano e hanga, he tikanga mo toku
Iwi. Otira, tena ano hoki pea koutou e kite
ana, koia i maharatia ai, me whakahoki atu
tana moni ki a ia, i homai nei e te Karimana
ki a Tawhiao. Koia ano i kaha ai tenei kupu
ki te kii atu ki a koutou katoa e nga Iwi;——
"Whakahokia mai te whakahaere a o koutou
Tupuna, ki roto i te Kauhanganui o Aotearoa
e tu atu nei whakahaere ai." Hei konei
mutu ai aku kupu atu ki a koutou.
E te Atua whakaorangia tou Iwi Maori.
NA TE PAKI o MATARIKI.
TE WHAKAHOKINGA A TAWHIAO I TE
MONI PENIHANA A TE KAWANA-
TANGA.
WHAKARONGO mai e nga Iwi! Ko te moni
Penihana a te Kawanatanga i homai nei e te
Karimana raua ko Hori Wirikiha ki au, i
Akarana; i te ra i whakaaturia atu na e "Te
Paki o Matariki," i tana haerenga atu i te 8
o nga ra o Akuhata, o te tau 1892 kua mahue
ake nei. Ko taua moni e £56 6 rima tekau
ma ono pauna, e ono herengi. I homai taua
moni a te Kawanatanga e te Karimana hei
moni Penihana maku, me ana kupu whaka-
pai-pai ano moku; tena pea kua rongo koutou
ki a 'Te Paki o Matariki," i etehi o ana
haerenga atu-na kia kite i a koutou. I mea
atu ano ahau ki a Te Paki o Matariki;—"Haere
ki nga Iwi, korero atu: kua tukua taku puka-
puka ki te Kawanatanga i mua atu i taku
ngarenga atu i a "Te Paki o Matariki" na, i
a ia i haere atu-na ki te whakaatu kia koutou
ki nga Iwi Maori, e noho nei i Aotearoa me te
Waipounamu; i te homaitanga a te Karimana.
i taua moni Penihana a te Kawanatanga nei
maku. Na, ko nga kupu enei i kiia atu ai e
au, hei korero atu ma-ana ki a koutou, i nga
kupu o taku pukapuka ki te Kawanatangaa e
mau iho i runga ake nei, ara, i penei atu etehi
o nga kupu o taku reta: —
Ki te Kawanatanga, katahi ahau ka mohio
he "Huu" ta raua mahi moku. Inaianei,
mutu tonu au ki taua moni, kaore rawa aku
maharatanga atu ki taua moni a muri ake
nei. (He kupu whakauru iho tenei naku no
naianei.) Whakarongo mai e nga Iwi:— E
hara taku whakae atu i taua moni Penihana
a te Kawanatanga i homai nei e te Kari-
mana ki a au, i te mea he hiahia atu noku ki
taua moni. Ko te take i whakaae atu ai au.
He hiahia noku kia tino matatau atu au ki te
ahua o te whakaaro o te Kawanatanga o Nui
Tireni mo matou ko aku Iwi Maori i Aotearoa
lei, me te Waipounamu. A inaianei, kua

of welcome, to the raising of Staff, (or rather Column) of the altar of
the Sacred palace, (i. e) the Staff of Authority of the King's Throne,

Token of Io, (God the supreme being). We are only imitating the
Tawhito-rangi, Ancient Heaven (i.e. the staff is Handed down from
Io). The Matariki, Manukura, and Whakamarumaru, are all attention-
in their Kauhanganui, and the gathering are aware of the 2nd [day of
May, which is already Notifiet by the Priest (Speaker of the Kauha
nganui}. Io now stands as the medium of the world, which is known
and Handed down by the Sacred rites.

tangatakino, me noho ia i konei me

i konei me aka Wahine, me aka Ta-
mariki : me Mahuta raua ko Te Whe-
rowhero, ka riro mai i a au ki konei,
kaore au e pai kia waiho hei ngare-
ngare-nga. He kupu ake naku mo

kia pai te haere, kaore hoki o ngaro te
ingoa ki te pai, kaore e ngaro ki te tika,
ka rangona ano te pai, ka rangona ano
te tika. Koia taku kupu e kopikopiko
ake nei, mo te 'KAHA mo te MAIA,'
Ki te whakahaere kia maia ki te wha-
kahaere, ho mea ake naku— "Ka oki-
