HBH 1890 APRIL 26th KAIWHATA and Court Monday Old Paora KAIWHATA is the hero of the latest good story- the aged aboriginal suffered from a bad cough and a sore leg, and accompanied by an interpreter, the other day, sought the aid of a well-known medico, who gave him a mixture for the cough and a lotion for the leg. On Thursday night PAORA by mistake swallowed a dose of the lotion, which burned his mouth and quite upset his internal economy. So, fearing he was poisoned, in haste PAORA went to see the medico without an interpreter. PAORA speaking no English, and the doctor had no knowledge of Maori, being confined to "kapai" and "tenakoe" the patient was reduced to pantomime to explain his dire strait, and with expressive gestures he pointed to his mouth. The medico seeing that there was inflammation concluded that the tattooed warrior was suffering from toothache, so took him to a neighbouring dentist. Installed in the chair of torture, PAORA opened his mouth, and submitted to the manipulation of the dentist, apparently concluding that it was all part of the "ET IRE." But when, with a deft wrench, the tooth came out, PAORA suddenly awoke to the situation, and when the dentist calmly demanded five shillings, the indignation of the Maori knew no bounds. He went to an interpreter and explained his piteous case, and was very anxious to make the dentist pay utu for his lacerated gums and wounded feelings, declaring that the only useful tooth in his head had been extracted. He argued that, instead of paying the dentist, the dentist ought to pay him, and as he returned to the Pah was heard breathing vengeance in the choicest of Maori anathemas. Further developments are awaited with interest. At the Resident Magistrate's Court yesterday Before Mr G A PREECE R.N. John LEWIS, just out of gaol was sentenced to seven days' hard labour.
