[Translation.]
No. 372.—Pukapuka-inoi a Tikini Pahau.

E ki ana te kai-pitihana e rere haere ana te reriwe i Shag Point ra roto i tetahi urupa o tona iwi. A e inoi ana ia kia whakahokia taua whenua ki aia. Me hoatu ranei i tetahi atu piihi hei utu mo tera.

Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei: Me tuku tenei pitihana ki te Kawanatanga kia whiriwhiria e ratou.
