C. Carrington going there with Honi and your humble servant. After we returned to town, Mr. Waka, of Waireka, went there and endeavoured to overthrow all that had been done. Is it not singular he should act in this way? I am expecting Rawiri and othere immediately to hand over the "tin". Received this money from the Sub-Treasurer, by the Governor's command. Send back the men's Abstracts as soon as possible, to make up for my remissness in not forwarding them before. Yours very faithfully (Signed) H. Halse. To:- D. McLean Esq.
