HE WHAKAMOMORITANGA.
I te Wenerei, te 4 o nga ra o Noemanei, ka noho te Huuri i Maraekakaho i runga i te tinana o Teone Penetete i whakamomori i a ia, he patai kite take o tona matenga. Ko te Kemara Kai whakawa te kai patai. He kamura te tupapaku i "VVaipureku e mahi ana i mua ai. Ka korero nga kai vrhaki, ka ki tetahi, no te toru o nga
haora o te ata o taua rangi ka whakatika te tupapaku ka tango kite koikoi pu e iri ana i rote ■whore; katahi ia, te kai whaki nei, ka whakatika hoki ka tangobia mai taua koikoi, ka riro ; muri iho ka koki ano ia kite moe. Ki hai i roa e takoto ana ka oho ake ia i te takahanga o te tangata ra, titiro rawa atu kua mau te tupapaku kite patiti; e karanga ana ka patua eia te tangata tata atu ki a ia. Katahi ia, te kai whaki nei, ka kawea e te mataku ka oma iho ki raro, (i runga hoki e moe ana). Ki hai i whai taro ka hoki ake ano ia ki runga; rokohanga atu e takoto ana te tupapaku i te taha ki runga o te pikitanga, ko te toto e heke haere ana i te kaki, kua motu i te patiti; ko nga ringa e mau kita ana kite patiti. Pena tahi hoki te korero o tetahi kai whaki e moe ana i reira. Ka korero tetahi kai whaki ka ki, no te Eatapu te tupapaku ka tae ake ki Maraekakaho ; e ahua mate ana i tona mahi kai tonu i te waipiro. Erua nga hawhe paina waipiro i a ia e mau haere ana. Katahi ka kai tonu i ona waipiro i nga ra erua i mua atu i tona matenga. Ite Turei etu a wairangi ana. I te ahiahi ka tono ia ki tetahi rongoa whakamoe i a ia—katahi ka hoatu. Heoti ano tona kitenga ite tangata ra; no te motunga rawa ano o te kaki katahi ia ka haere atu ano, ka noho i te taha, a, mate noa. Nana i tango mai te patiti i nga ringa ote tupapaku. Katahi ka whakaotia ete Huuri, kaki, —" te mea i mate ai te tupapaku, he tapahanga nana ano i tona kaki kite patiti, i a ia e porangi ana i tona mahi kai auau i te waipiro." Heoi, me whakaaro o matou hoa maori kite matenga o te tangata ra, ka whakarere te kai i te kai kino nei—koi pena ano hoki ratou. He hanga whakaporangi hoki tenei hanga i te tangata. Ehara ite mea kotahi noa nei te pakeha e mate penei ana, engari he tokomaha.
