DESCRIPTION OF PRISONER.
Te Pafue is a not particularly ferocious-looking native, but of a low animal type. ' He is a spare built young fellow of 19 years of age belonging to the Warepapa settlement, and seems utterly incapable of estimating the atrocity of his crime. The Maori holds life cheap,, whether his own or another man's, and like the ganerality of his: race in a similar position, Patue takes the matterquite composedly, remarking, when at Hamilton, that Morgan was a b -y fool to have tormented him by calling him' names. /■ '.••/:
