HE TONO.
Hei te 20 o nga ra o Tihema ka tu te hokohoko taonga maori a Mihi Reweti ki tona kainga i Kaiti. He mahi tonu tenei na tenei wahine i nga tau katoa. Ko nga moni e hoatu katoa ana e ia mo nga mahi a te Hahi Maori, hei tuku hoki i te Rongo Pai ki Merenihia. E tono ana ia ki nga Maori katoa kia tukua mai he taonga maori mana e hoko ki ona hoa, ko tona tino tono ia ki nga Maori katoa o enei takiwa. Nga mea e tino hiahia ana ia he kete, mea ririki, mea nunui ranei, engari ko nga mea ririki nga mea tino pirangitia e te wahine pakeha ; kaua e hoatu he rongoa pakeha hei whakarereke ite ahua ote harakeke. Otira me tuku mai nga mea katoa a te Maori. Kia mama mai e hine ma, whakaritea te tono a tenei wahine pakeha e aroha nei kite Maori. Me tuku mai me waiho ranei nga taonga ki a Mita Reweti, kei te whare o Wiremu me Ketera (Williams and Kettle), Kihipane, ki to raua whare tonu ranei i Kaiti. Kia rangatira te whakaaro, kaua e mea me utu rawa, ehara hoki i te mea mana ake nga moni, engari hei painga ano mo te iwi Maori. Kite utu nga taonga ka iti rawa te moni e toe. Mana e utu te tukunga mai i te meera.
