We would very much like to be able to print more news in Te Ao Hou, and would be grateful for more contributions from readers—accounts of meetings, weddings, obituaries, and anything else of interest. They don't have to be long, and they don't have to be very carefully worded; you can always leave this to the editor, if you wish. Te Ao Hou is your magazine, and it depends upon your contributions. We are always very glad to receive stories, articles and poems, also.

The Rev. Mohi Turei lived at Rangitukia on the East Coast, and died there in 1914 at the age of 85. He wrote a great many stories in Maori, many of them being printed in early Maori magazines. He is one of the very best of all New Zealand writers. This story is about the famous Ngati Porou ancestor Tuwhakairiora, who lived about 17 generations ago. It was first published in the Polynesian Journal in 1911. Mohi's original Maori version will be given in our next issue. The translation given here is by Archdeacon Walsh, though in some places we have slightly modified it to make it more readily intelligible.
