Te Pipiwharauroa 104

No. 104
1906/11


[1] Te Pipiwharauroa, He Kupu Whakamarama, Number 104, Gisborne 1906

‘THE SISTER OF TIMI KARA.’

‘Where the body is, there the hawks gather.’ A Maori translation of this saying in these days would be, ‘Where horse races are held, there the [?piira] gather.’ The Government thinks that there will be no shortage of criminals gathering at Christchurch in the months of the Exhibition.
