Kua mea mai te tuatahi o nga karere o Nuitireni "he pukapuka tenei kia "mohio ai nga tangata katoa ki nga " Ture a te Kuini ki nga tikanga wa''kawa hoki," koia ra enei ka tuhituhia nei ki tenei Pukapuka kia mohio ai nga Tangata Maori katoa kite tikanga o te wakawa Pakeha. Tenei ano a Maketu te noho nei i te ware herehere e tatari ana kia tae mai nga kai wakapae me nga kai titiro i Tokerau; kia tae mai ratou ka wakawakia ai: koia ka tuhituhia wawetia ai tenei mea te tikanga ote wakawa: Ka rongo ano te katipa ka kite ra nei i te he o tetahi tangata ka hopukia te tangata ka arahina atu kite ware herehere ra nei, kite ware wakawa ra nei, hei reira ka wakawakia ia, mehemea e kore e kitea tana hara ka tukua, ka kitea, a he hara iti ka utua kite moni, ka kore he moni, ka panga kite ware herehere; otira mehemea he hara nui wakaharahara penei mete Kohuru, mete muru ite ware, ka wakahokia te tangata kite ware herehere kia wakawakia ano e te tino kai wakawa. Ko te tikanga tenei
ote Wakawa nui. Ka tomo atu te kai wakawa ki roto kite ware ha karangatia etahi tangata tika, kotatii te kau ma rua ko ratou hei mea e hara ana te tangata e hara kore ana ra nei. Na, ka tu te Herehere ite aroaro ote kai wakawa. Ka korerotia nuitia tana hara ka mea atu te kai korero, " e hara ana koe, e hara kore ana ranei ki tenei mea?" ka ki mai ano te herehere u e hara ana." Ka wakatika te kai wakawa ka korerotia e ia te mea e ahatia ai ia kite ritenga ote ttire: otira mehemea ka kite Herehere " e hara kore ana" ia ka wakatika nga kai wakapae (wakarongo ana ano te " tekau ma rua") ki te korero, a ka mutu ta ratou korero, ka haere ke ratou, ka komiti puku—ka hoki mai ano ka mea atu te kai korero, " E te Tekau ma rua e pehea ana koutou, e hara ana te herehere nei, e hara kore ana ra nei ?" ka mea mai ratou, " e hara kore ana," ka tukua; otira, mehemea, ka ki mai ratou, " e hara ana," —mo reira, ka wakatika te kai wakawa, ka korerotia e ia te mea,
e ahatia ai te tangata kite tikanga o te ture, a—ka wakahokia anokite ware herehere. Tenei ano hoki tetahi kupu ki nga tangata maori, ka haere ratou kite ware wakawa, kia wakawakia, — ka haere ra nei kite wakapae, mehemea, kahore he kai-tiaki, hei wakarongo, e tika ana kia tohea putia, kia tika ai hoki te wakawa.—Tenei hoki nga ingoa o nga Kai tiaki, o nga Tangata maori kei tetahi wahi ke, o tenei Puka puka.
