[Translation.]
No. 13.—Pukapuka-inoi a Hone Haringi.

E ki ana te kai-pitihana no runga i te tangohanga a etahi Maori i tana whenua i Waipukurau i ngaro nga painga o taua whenua ki aia; tukua ana e i ki te Hupirimi Kooti, whakaputaina ana he warati pana i taua hunga. Erangi kihai te apiha o te Kooti i whakahaere i te warati, a ki te mohio o te kai-pitihana he wehi no taua apiha kei puta tetahi pakanga i kore ai e whakamana taua warati. E inoi ana te kai-pitihana kia utua tana mate, ko te take, e kore e tika kia mate te tangata kotahi i runga i te mahi whakahaere mo te katoa. E mea ana hoki ia no runga i te mea whakarite o te Kawanatanga ka tahi ka riro mai i aia tana whenua.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei:—

Ko te whakaaro o te Komiti tenei e tika ana kia whakaputaina tetahi tikanga kia Haringi, me te whakaaro ano hoki me tuku tenei keehi ki te Kawanatanga kia whakaotia tahi me etahi atu keehi i rite ki tenei.
