‘Kui! Kui! Whitiwhitiora!’ [The cry of the shining cuckoo.]
The discussions at the Hui, reported on here by the Rev Pererika Peneti, were beautiful and made one’s heart rejoice. Because of the excellent accounts given by Peneti in his report we decided to write a few words about some aspects of the hui which we noticed in his report. There were two main areas that the Hui dealt with: the matters apposite to the Hui Topu, and extraneous matters not specifically related to the Hui.
