Abstract

Over July and August 1860, 200 Maori chiefs attended a conference held at the Melanesian Mission at Kohimarama, Auckland. It was an important gathering, where issues such as the Taranaki War, the Kingitanga, disputes over land, the provision of justice, and the Treaty of Waitangi were discussed. This parallel English-Maori edition was reissued from five issues of the Maori Messenger (14 July-30 November 1860). Here there are speeches from Paora Tahaere (Ngati Whatua, Orakei), Wiremu Tamihana Te Neke (William Thompson), and Tamihana Te Rauparaha.
