Wakatu 24 March 1851 Friends, people who signed the document given to Richmond and I about Pitoone, about some lands to the north that you are arguing be paid for. Listen to what I have to say about that land. Your document has been taken together with that of Rawiri Watino, and given by Rawiri to the Governor in relation to that land. The Governor said to Rawiri that McLean would soon come south, and then your document and Rawiri's would be given to him, and it is for McLean to decide about payment for you and whether your document is in order. That is all. From John Tinline
Wakatu 24 Maehe 1851 E hoa ma, e nga tangata kua tuhituhia ki roto i te pukapuka i homai ki a maua ko Te Retimana mo Pitoone, mo etahi whenua o raro i tohea e koutou kia utua. Whakarongo mai koutou ki aku kupu mo taua whenua. Ko to koutou pukapuka kua honoa ki ta Rawiri Watino, i hoatu e Rawiri ki a Kawana mo taua whenua. I ki atu a Kawana ki a Rawiri meake ka tae mai a Te Makarini ki runga nei, hei reira ka tukua atu ai ta koutou pukapuka me ta Rawiri ki a Te Makarini; i a Te Makarini te whakaaro kia utua koutou, me ka tika ta koutou pukapuka. Heoi ano. Na Teone Tinirini
