No te 3 o Oketopa nei ka rere mai i Akarana tetahi kaipuke rewa tahi ko te Ani te ingoa; e rere ana ki Okitiki, te whenua koura nei i tera moutere. No te 8 o nga ra ka rokohanga e te tonga i ko mai o Waiapu. Katahi ka riwhiua nga heera ka hoki kite Kawakawa kite wain ruru tu ai. No te taenga ki reira ka kite atu i nga maori ki uta e main ana kite to i nga poti kite wai. Katahi ka matakitaki nga pakeha i runga kaipuke ; ka rua nga poti patu weera ka riro mai kite wai, e hoe ana mai kite kaipuke; te kau nga tangata i runga i tetahi, tokoiwa i runga i tetahi—he mau pu anake. Nawai ra i matakitaki kau aua pakeha ka oho te ngakau, ka mohiotia he kohuru te mahi na. Heoi, ko te wetekanga o nga heera i wetekia ai, ka rere ano whaka te moana. Katahi ra ano ka whakakaha te hoe a nga tangata i runga i nga poti—whakawiri ana tena! He whai kia mau te kaipuke. Nawai ra i kaha te hau ka matemate hoki, ka tere hoki nga poti. Otira ki hai ano i mau te kaipuke ra ka pa kaha ano te hau, ka tere hoki te kaipuke ka mahue nga poti. No te kitenga ka mahue ratou ka whakarere te hoe ka tu ki runga nga tangata i nga poti pupuhi ai kite kaipuke. Ka rima pakunga o te pu. Wheo haere ana tena te rere o te mata i te taha o te ke ote kaipuke. Ivaore he tangata i tu, puta ora ana te kaipuke kite moana rere tonu mai ana ki Nepia nei. Mei ai pu repo i runga i taua kaipuke penei kua mate ena Hau Hau kite wai.
No te Wenerei te 4 o Oketopa ka huaki te Hau Hau kite Mavvhai he kainga no Henare Potae. Ko ia, ko Henare, ratou ko ona tangata kua riro ke mai Id Turanga ; he wahine anake i mahue hei tiaki mo te kainga. Ma te aha koa tena hangu te wahine ; tana tahuritanga mai kite Hau Hau anana ! rere ana te weta ! Tokoiiva rawa o te Hau Hau ka mate i a ratou. Ko te ata o te Taitei ka iiaere nga tamariki hawiifkaiiie tokorua kite kimi hoiho ; hopukia ana e te Hau Hau patua iho ana tetahi, mauria atu ana tetahi—kua patua pea i muri nei, kua whakaorangia ranei. Kitea ana e nga maori Kuini te me a i patua i te taha o tetahi awa e takoto ana, mauria ana mai ki Tokomaru. Ko te upoko me ' te mea i kurua kite kohatu ; ko nga roro me nga'karu kua kore. Kotahi te pakeha i rere atu hei piki mo nga wahine me nga tamariki i te huakanga 0 te Hau ilau i te Mawhai i te 4 o ra. 1 tu taua pakeha i te paparinga, puta ana te mata i te taha o te ihu.
