To the Editor of Te Pipiwharauroa.
I wrote this letter to Te Towa-Whangaroa at the start of the [?whai kaitinga] of this country, 29th July, 1905.
On 18th July my ship anchored having sailed from Auckland to Kororareka, Bay of Islands. This is a small but very interesting town. This is the place where stood the flagpole cut down by Hone Heke. Hone Heke’s party and some of the warriors arrived and found the flag flying on top of the hill.
