| p.95 | Maori news |
| Notifies a proposed meeting at Kāwhia between the Kingites and the Native Minister, Sir Donald McLean, and that many members of the Maori King Movement are opposed to this venue. | |

| [English translation included.] | |
| pp.95-96 | [News item] |
| Corrects the previous report concerning the meeting held at Te Kūiti [refer to pp.94-95]. States that the points agreed upon were: that all acts by the Maori King shall be reaffirmed and maintained; that the mill stone which has so long hung round the necks of Maori should be taken off and cast into the sea and allowed to remain there forever; that the system of accepting rations from the government should be discontinued; that the lands now possessed by the Kingites should be retained, that no further lands should be alienated, and that the Kingites should maintain their independence as a separate people. | |

| pp.96-98 | [Letter to the Editor] |
| From Rīwai Tāmati | |
| Discusses several issues including the succession to land belonging to Wiremu Kīngi Tūtepakihirangi at Ahikouka, investigated several times by the Native Land Court and rightfully awarded to him and his tribe. Notes that a Maori committee has wrongfully divided the land and allowed Crown grants to be issued to people who have no rightful claim, and that the matter will now be brought before the House. | |
| The writer narrates a story concerning the many trials and tribulations of the ancestor, Hau and how he overcomes them. Suggests Maori take heed of Hau and do as he does, and that no matter how difficult the way forward, there is always a direction to follow that will result in a favourable outcome. Te Wananga is likened to Hau because the newspaper is searching for a way ahead for Maori. | |
| A further story concerns two sightings of a particular person at Parihaka, whose hair had the appearance of a rat-skin cloak. Notes that the people of Taranaki are flocking to him. | |
| Also reports the deaths of several people in the month of April. | |

| pp.99-100 | [Letter to the Editor] |
| From Rēnata Paraire Kawatupu | |
| Discusses the various ways of selling land in the areas owned by Ngā Puhi. States that some transactions are fairly agreed upon and Maori are freely selling some pieces, but that land sales that will cause problems in the future are those sold by people who do not have a claim or by those who do not carefully survey the boundaries. Refers to Maori stating that missionaries are taking land, and suggests that it is the chiefs who are mostly selling the land for money, like flies that follow a person. Adds that the money means death for the land. | |
