over other's land. We say that we should be given some payment but you have the jurisdiction over Pakeha living on the land. The Pakeha is Stephen. He went and lived there with Harriet. When we sat to talk with Stephen, there were six of us. When we sat with Harriet, there were two of us. In the first discussion with Steven, he agreed at once to [£]12. He went off to draw up the boundary, and then he suggested it be £6; we refused and it remained at twelve. But later we agreed to the £6, but he refused. Well we settled up our business but we were somewhat confused by the tricky behaviour of that Pakeha. The names of the parts which are not paid for are Parikawiti, Hauteawa, Kahukura-a-witia, Taiapua. These were the parts taken illegally, one area at Ruamahanga and one at Makahakaha. The person who gave it away was Riha Te Awio; Steven and Harriet were the Pakeha. That's all. From Te Meiha Otaota and Iraia Te Ama
ki whenua o tetahi tangata. E mea ana matou kia homai he utu; mau te tikanga ki te Pakeha e noho ana i runga i te whenua. Ko taua Pakeha ko Tipene. Haere atu a Tipene noho iho ko Hariata. I te nohanga o Tipene tuaono matou ki te korero. Ka noho iho a Hariata, tuarua matou ki te korero. I te korerotanga tuatahi ki a Tipene, whakaae rawa a Tipene ki te tekau ma rua. Ka haere atu hoki ki te tuhi i te rei, ka ki mai tera kia ono pauna, ka whakakahoretia e matou, ka mahue hoki te tekau ma rua. Muri iho ka whakaaetia e matou aua pauna e ono, whakakahoretia ana hoki e tera. Heoi ano ka whakamutua ta matou mahi, ka he noa iho nga whakaaro i te mahi tinihanga a tena Pakeha. Ko nga ingoa o nga wahi kaore nei e utua ko Parikawiti, ko Hauteawa, Kahukura-a-witia, Taiapua; ko nga wahi enei i tahaetia ko Ruamahanga, tetahi paenga, ko Makahakaha tetahi paenga. Ko te tangata nana i tuku ko Riha Te Awio, ko Tipene ko Hariata nga Pakeha. Heoi ano. Na Te Meiha Otaota, na Iraia Te Ama
