Does any one know the history of Mata Pere who treated the wife of Te Kooti. Unsure if this was 1st, 2nd or 3rd wife. A letter was sent to the government - here is the english translation Mata Pere has sought among us for occasions where she could help those who were diseased, or sick in other ways, sothat she could give them medicine and help in other ways. This woman, Mata Pere, as far as we are concerned, is exactly as she seemed. She has been among us for three years and during this time has worked with many who had infection because of the compassion she felt alone (I think she was not paid for these services). As far as we are concerned her qualifications are extremely good. As a result of this petition Mary Jane Berry was authorised by the government to deal with Neil McKay, Chemists and Herbalists of Auckland who provided her with free medicine. Thanks Michelle

Hi John Sounds as though you have no option but to wait. If they physically cannot lay their hands on any sources then there doesn't seem to be any choice. I suspect if there were they would have listed that option. Is the information you want ONLY available through them? You could try asking on the list - maybe someone can help that way.

HBH 1892 July 9 3 local and General news. Lord GLASGOW has signified his acceptance of the position of honorary colonel of the Heretaunga Light Horse. In the Hutt valley yesterday a lad about nine and a half years of age named RUSSELL was killed. He was playing with some other boys at bush felling when a tree caught and crushed him. Archbishop REDWOOD is the possessor of a valuable violin, and today he had a visit from M. MUSIN with the view to seeing both the violin and the owner. M. MUSIN considers the instrument to be a veritable "Strad" and values it at £100. If it was played on a little more he considers it would be simply perfect. Wellington-a proposal to form a New Zealand Racing Club was put forward. Christchurch-Friday Argument in the Sydenham licensing cases was resumed today and concluded with Mr Justice DENNISTON taking time to consider his judgment. A man named George HUTCHINS, a farmer at Courtnay was found dead in one of his paddocks this morning. A boy named Walter William CLARIDGE, aged 13, a son of Mr Thomas CLARIDGE, was accidentally killed at Papanui today. DUNEDIN-Friday In BORTON v Minister of Mines today, Mr Justice WILLIAMS said he was satisfied that mischief to plaintiff's land was likely to be caused by the Marewhenua river being silted up.

HBH 1892 July 8 4 WAIPATU ASSEMBLY Hastings Correspondent, July 7, 1892 To-day has been a gala day at the WAIPATU pa, both for natives and pakehas. In the morning there were various sports, including foot-races for men, women, and children. A tug-of-war between members of the Assembly and a picked native team was won by the former after an eight minutes' pull. A race for native members over forty years of age was won by Mr PEHI, member for the Bay of Islands. The other competitors were: - Mete KINGI, KEREAMA POTU, and TAIKAWA. Major KEMP'S fine band contributed greatly to the enjoyment of all by their spirited playing, which did equal credit to the players and their band-master, Mr EVANS. In the course of the proceedings Major KEMP threw down a bundle of notes and a bag of sovereigns for distribution among the assembled natives. Of course the great event was the haka, which was danced by about 60 natives, male and female. The former were garbed in kilts of Turkey red, and the latter wore white shifts and native mats which gave them a very picturesque appearance. On they came six deep; then they formed in lines with fuglemen and wahines at the ends, the latter being armed with spears and meres. Their shouting and gesticulations are impossible to describe. Between the "acts" the dancers crouched upon the ground while one of the leaders recited an appropriate "local" relative to the Treaty of Waitangi or the proceedings of the Assembly. Then they, alt sprang up and sang the chorus. One orator, TUTANIHONIHO, made frequent and eloquent appeals to the Treaty flag to look down upon them and direct them as to some way of getting relief from their burdens. The leader of the ladies of the ballet (a fine specimen of a native) was simply delightful, his fantastic poses and airs and graces being such as would have done credit to a French opera dancer. After a long performance the performers danced off amid the plaudits of the spectators, both native and European. I should mention that the exhibition, although well worth paying to see, was gratuitous, the majority of the natives having outvoted those who wished to a make a charge. I am informed that the only work done in the assembly since Saturday has been the engrossing and signing of the bills to be presented in the house, viz., the Native School Bill, the bill for abolishing the Native Land Courts, and the bill for prohibiting the granting of publican's licenses on Native lands, There are also a covenant binding all tribes to work together for the general good and the support of the Treaty of Waitangi, and another for a levy among the natives as stated in one of my former letters.
