That place has been given to you, to the Pakeha, in good faith. It has been approved by us all, and by Raniera. One end is at Pouakai and the other at Pikipari, below Taranaki mountain. After you left we talked about Mangorei, and we all agreed. Don't you and the Governor say that that part is not approved, not so, it has indeed been approved by us all. That part of Waiwakaiho has been confirmed by the majority and out to Murumuru, inland of Araheke, with the boundary at Te Pouaraniera[?]. That's all. This account is from your good friend, from Paratene of Te Kawau town. Write back to me.
