my friend, Rawiri, they are wrong and no benefits will arise from his erroneous application of those customs. And as Isaiah the prophet said, 'and when we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him' [Isaiah 53:2]. The Maori assessors properly assigned the right payment for this matter of false accusation; Te Tahana ordered £30. Well for that Rawiri became angry but it was anger to no avail at all. If in fact, my good friend, McLean, you and Governor Grey agree with Rawiri, henceforward you will be seen as stupid. And it was you who abhorred carrying guns and fighting.
