bewildering mastery of words in both Mauri and' Ifinglish. j It is not often that - Sir Apirana ' Ngata is heard outside the House, and the historical society ia fortunate in being able to have him appear in Hastings, and the publio of Hastings is sure to make use of this opportunity of hearing such an eminent scholar.
