Manawapou 18 July 1848 Friend, McLean, This is my message to you. The man came whose cloak I had settled on to give to you. But you must give the money to the policeman, £1.5s. Another thing, the adze that you saw here, give me the money for it, ten shillings and five [pence]; this would be a good adze for you. The policeman can bring [the money] to me, and another person take [the axe] to you. From me, from Matiu Matai

Ma te pirihi e tango mai, ma tetehi tangata e tango atu ki a koe. Naku, na Matiu Matai
