hoki he tamariki iho rāua i ērā. Kai te haere mai te mahi o te waea i Pōtaka. Ka eke mai ki runga o Taumatahapaipu, ka tuku heke te haere. Kua kitea mai te moana me Whangaparāoa. Kia titaha te rā, ka kitea atu te waea e pīataata ana i ngā wāhi kua rewa ki runga i ngā pou, ka waiatatia e Wīkuki Waititi rāua ko Te Ahiwaru Waenga: Hau kiwi, hau weka, kawea he kōrero, Kai te uira te waea i ēnei rā, ei. Ka tae mai te mahi o te waea ki Whangaparāoa. I roto tonu i te whare o Te Mānihera Waititi te waea. I konei ka whakauru atu ētahi ki roto o te rōpū mahi waea. Ko ngā ingoa ko Hauraki Tāwhai, ko Kūaha Waititi, ko Takamoana Erueti, ko Tiōpira Pōpata. Ka neke te kāinga o ngā tāngata mahi ki Matapapa. Kei muri te mahi e haere atu ana. Kua tipu te whakaaro i a Te Pārekoihu Te Kani kia neke noa atu te rongo o tāna waea i ā ētahi atu. Kātahi ka karangatia he hui mō te whakapuaretanga o te waea ki Pēria. Ka tīkina tētahi kaumātua nō Te Kaha, ko Māihi Tamatama-ā-rangi te ingoa, he hauā te waewae, koia nei te tohunga nāna i whakairo te rākau kua tae mai hei pou ki te taha o te whare-waea. I runga rawa o ngā whakairo o te pou nei ko te Maori e horo ana i te tōhora. Kei roto i ngā kupu o te haka e whakahua ana ki reira. He mea pōhiri atu anō Te Tairāwhiti kia haere mai ki te hui. Ka haere mai a Wīngara Houkāmau, a Te Ngārara e karangatia ana, a Apirana Ngata, me ētahi atu o ngā rangatira o Ngātiporou; pērā anō Te Taiwhakararo. Na, koia nei ngā kupu o te haka i te taenga mai o te ope o Ngātiporou: Kaea: Te Peketua, e Nuinga: O! Kaea: Te peketua, e Nuinga: O! Kaea: Ko Hoani ka tiki rā Nuinga: Tau tangata e tāoro ai koe, tāoro Kaea: Ngā rongo rā o te waea e, hau tonu mai i runga o te toetoe Nuinga: Aha ha. Noho mai ana a Te Ngārara i raro i tōna poupou taiapa rīwai e tū mai rā i a Te Hetana. Kei te aha rā koe ki te pou o te waea e tū nei i Pēria. Titiro ki runga ki Maori e horo nei te tōhora. Titiro ki raro ki te pūtake ka uira nei te whakairo. Auware rā, auware rā, i au e. Hei. Nā ngā mahi tinihanga a ngā koroua nei ki a rātou ka kīia te pou o te waea a Te Ngārara he poupou taiapa rīwai. Ko tā rātou hoki he mea whakairo rānō. Ka neke atu te mahi o te waea ki Te Maru-o-Hinemaka ki Wairuru, ka waiatatia anō e ōna tāngata te waiata: Te rongo o te waea whakangarongaro ana, Ka whakapau ngā mihi ki ngā kaimahi e. Ko ngā kōrero o te hui, kāore rawa māua ko Moana e mōhio. E kī ana a Timi Mekerāpata i takoto rānō te pereti, i kohia he moni hei utu i ngā tāngata nāna i whakatū te waea Ko tētahi wāhi hei aroha ki te rangatira, ki a George Kelly, ēngari kāore a ia i mōhio ki te nui o ngā moni, ki ētahi atu o ngā kōrero o te hui. Nō te 12 o Tihema 1964 ka tūtaki au ki a Hōri Kōrimete (George Goldsmith). Ka kōrero mai ia ki a au i tae a ia ki te hui i te whakapuaretanga o te waea i Orete. Nō te tau 1903. Engari ko te rā me te marama o te hui, kāore a ia i te mau mahara. E āhua tamariki tonu ana ia i taua wā. Ka whitu tekau mā whitu ōna tau ināianei. I haere mai a ia mā runga i tōna hōiho i Port Awanui ki te hui, he pēke noa iho tōna tera, ēngari ko te tuarā kē o tōna hōiho i pahore i tōna whero.
