We all pray Jesus Christ every night to make him better. I pray for Tooi and all Missionary friends ever night. Saturday night the Admiral bring the carriage, I go by myself to his house: plenty gentleman, plenty lady, plenty cocked hat. I drank two cups coffee. Plenty music plenty dance all same as a public house. I came home in the carriage. Sunday morning me, Mr Kemp, Mr Hall, and Mr Butler went to Church a very old man preached very big way, too much powder: afternoon me and Mr Butler go see the school, and Mr White took us to the Dockyard to see English curiosity. Go into the Commissioners house, he shew me every room in the house, and his garden, and his daughters and son. Then go see the Prince Regent 120 Guns: never see so large Man of war: plenty people at work: man as strong as a horse, Driving bolts: go to the rope walk, see rope as big as my body. See the saw mill go by steam. I see the iron waggon wagon by steam, he took up two tree and away she goes. I sing out O dear me New Zealand man no believe, nor I, but I see with my own eye, same as the iron work: quite astonished. Go to Admirals office, he tell the boat to come. Go in the boat Mr Butler w Mr Hall, Mr Kemp and young Mr Butler and Teeterree, on boatd board the flag ship the Bulwark, in the 12 oared barge. Plenty Officer, plenty cocked hat, Fire a salute 5 Guns, shake the ship. The Captain shew us all the decks— all the rooms: the ship more clean than a house. Teeterree fire a 24 pounder. Then we went to kei kei when done eat, come down to the boat, and the Guns fire again. Then went on board the Lyffe, fired two salutes when going on board, and coming on shore. Captain Warren very kind gentleman: he say he like to go to New Zealand: very kind lady his daughters: plenty laugh when I tell about New Zealand man ride the pig, make a hole in the pigs nose and put a bridle in; one man got a dog make him bite the pig, the pig run and throw down Teeterree. The Baring ready in a few days. I glad to go on board again and go to my own country and tell my country-man how kind Englishman. I very sorry Mrs Bickersteth no well, I pray Jesus Christ to make her better. Give my love to Mrs Bickersteth Mr and Mrs Pratt, and family, Mr and Mrs Cooper, and all friends God bless you Teeterree Hocken Archive Reference Number MS-0056/126 38MB image/tif 6.0 Uncompressed MD5 396f3bb6943c1741ec076de32fdd86e9 ACEMC 2964 4548 RGB manuscript Hakena MS-0056/126 214 mm 318 mm 2014:04:03 07:59:40.14 University of Otago Library, Reprographics Unit digital still camera Canon Canon EOS 6D 11.0 1 Manual 0220 1 11.0 6.9 1.4 Multi-segment tungsten flash did not fire 50.0 mm (35 mm equivalent: 60.6 mm) 0 Subject is illuminated from the front side.
