Renewed Campaign for Health Sir Bernard urged his hearers to launch a renewed and energetic campaign in the cause of better Maori health. He concluded by saying, ‘I have brought with me today, as I did on the occasion of my last visit, the greenstone pendant of Hoturoa, the Captain of the Tainui canoe. It has spent much of its life here, until it was given me by Sir Maui nearly forty years ago. I like to think that it has brought me back both to New Zealand and to Manukorihi. Hoturoa and Maui Pomare were both great leaders of their people in the different ages in which they lived. Hoturoa helped to find and to populate New Zealand; Pomare led his people along the road to better health and better living. Do not let us halt because he is no longer leading us.’ After his speech Sir Bernard walked from the marae and laid a small wreath on the tomb of Sir Maui. For a few seconds he stood in silence.
