Rev. W. White to Rev. John Butler.
WANGAROA,
August 6th, 1823.

My Dear Brother,

I just write a note to say that we could not get men to come to the Kiddee Kidde yesterday. We engaged two who are waiting now for this note. Very important news arrived last night, viz., that a large party were coming from the Bay of Islands against this people. I suppose we will be sufferers if they do come; likewise we heard that Mr. Marsden had arrived at the Bay of Islands.

We send you a box enclosing twelve pigeons, two tarts, and two pies. Six pigeons, one tart, and one pie are for Mr. Kemp.

All friends send their kind love to you and your family.

I am,
With affection and respect,
Yours,

W. WHITE.

To the Rev. John Butler.
