Mr TE ONE HAERITI Mr Te One Haeriti, 86, one of the remaining elders of the Ngati Te Kanawa and Maniapoto tribes, died on Thursday at Marakopa, Waikato. Te One in his youth accompanied the late Mr Mace, the surveyor who surveyed the Waitomo Caves in the early 1880s. Te One was known as a leading supporter of the retention of the pact of the Rohe Potae and was also an active supporter of the Maori King Movement. Before his death he had just journeyed from Auckland to Marakopa to see Mr Gabriel Elliott, a well-known authority on Maori affairs in his tribal area, to discuss the matter of suitably commemorating the Mangatoatoa Pa site and also to enquire into the fishing rights of his people in their tribal rivers.
