TE WIREMU – MR WILLIAMS
I first saw Archdeacon Williams, known as Mr Samuel, when I arrived at the school at Te Aute. It was the custom at the school for the Maori service on Friday night to be led by Mr Williams. I was scared by his appearance, but though I was just a child in those days I appreciated the excellent Maori spoken by Mr Williams, the clarity of his measured speech.
