[Translation.]
Te Pukapuka-inoi a Mere Nako Pene te Poa.

E tono ana te kai-inoi kia kaua e tonoa tona whenua i Motueka, e pa nui hoki ana te pouri ki a ia mo taua wahi.

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

Ko te mate e kiia ana i roto i te pitihana kua ea i te Kawanatanga, a e pai ana te kai-inoi, no reira kaore he tikanga kia whakaarohia e te Whare.
