No. 26, 1889. —Pukapuka-inoi a Wikitera Reone me etahi atu 17.
E Tono ana nga kai-pitihana mo tetahi whenua ko Whakarewa te ingoa he whenua i tangohia e te Hahi Mihingare hei kainga nohoanga mo te minita hei turanga whore karakia hoki erangi kihai taua whenua i mahia peratia, a o inoi ana nga kai-pitihana inaianei kia whakahokia taua whenua ki a rotou.
Kua whakahaua ahau kia ki penei: Kua puta te whakaaro o te Komiti me tuku tenei pitihana ki te Kawanatanga kia whiriwhiria e ratou.
