I have heard no news lately from Waitara with the exception that at the Hori Kingi affair the Natives had 1 man killed and 4 wounded, and that some of the Waikatos (Ngatimanipoto?) are coming down again with the assistance of Wi Kingi. Williams (Te Ngahuru) has been brought to Town and is now getting better, he had a narrow squeak of it, so Dr. Wilson tells me. Waka and his people who joined the rebels are now at Mataitawa with Wi Kingi, at present there are not many men with Kingi I fancy they are all preparing for potatoes, besides a great many are still suffering from influenza. I remain, Yours faithfully, W. Carrington.
