One thing, a person by the name of Tahoraiti has come here, and he is still upset about his letter which I gave to you, for the payment of the money for Wanganui, which he gave up, and this is the reason he continues upset for it occurred to him that he should have kept his his lands. It is over to you to consider him. Presently that man will come to you, and if you two get to talk, listen to
