An Epitome of Official Documents Relative to Native Affairs and Land Purchases in the North Island of New Zealand
To be succeeded by His Excellency Governor Grey
To be succeeded by His Excellency Governor Grey.
I have been reflecting about the Governor who is coining hither. He is a good man. His work towards the Natives will be that of kindness, protection, and justice. His name is Grey. I shall tell him of your quiet, friendly disposition. I shall be your friend in England as I have been your friend here, and shall make known what is true on the other side of the sea. Perhaps I shall sail in January.
From your friend,
R. F.,
Governor.
