Octavius Hadfield
[extract from the diary of Octavius Hadfield]
Oct. 28th . . . Had intended accompanying the Revd. H. Williams and Brown and Mr. Clarke to Maketu where they are gone to endeavour to make peace between the Waikato and Rotorua natives, but did not feel well enough. Did but little all day, however I trust I am gaining information respecting my work.
