[Translation.]
Te Pukapuka-inoi a Timoti Rapatini.

He hawhe-kaihe te kai-inoi, a e tono ana ia i hokona i mua e tona papa 150 eka whenua i nga Maori o Akaroa, whakaturia rawatia te whare ki reira nohoia iho, a muri iho ka noho tonu te kai-inoi raua ko tona whaea ki reira. E ki ana hoki te kai-inoi i te wa i hokona ai a Akaroa e te Kawanatanga i whakauruhia tetahi taha o tona whenua ki roto ki tetahi whenua rahui Maori, a ko taua wahi kua whakahokia ki a ia. Engari e tono ana te kai-inoi kia whakahokia ki a ia te toenga 150 pea eka kia whakawhiwhia ranei ia ki tetahi mea e rite ana ki to te whenua tikanga.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei atu ki te Whare:—

Notemea kihai te kai-inoi i kaha ki te whakatu i tana tono i te aroaro o nga Kooti Wkakawa, a notemea hoki kahore i tau te ngakau i runga i ana korero i te aroaro o te Komiti ekore te Komiti o kaha ki te tohutohu atu kia whakaarohia paitia tana tono e te Whare.
