No. 375.—Pukapuka-inoi a Ihaia Waharuhe me etahi atu.
E inoi ana nga kai-pitihana kia tukua atu tetahi Komihana hei tino whakatau i a ratau Rahui kia ratou. E ki ana ratou i whakaae te Minita Maori ki te tuku atu i tetahi Komihana i te tau kua pahure ake, erangi kahore ano ia i tae mai.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei: Me tuku tenei-pitihana ki te Kawanatanga kia pataia e ratou nga take.
