Dear Sir,

I beg to thank you for your letter. It is our intention to give each of the Maoris (including the interpreter) a prayer book with a suitable inscription. We will forward them through Major Te Wheoro, whom we shall be very glad to see when he is able to call.

Faithfully yours,
W.H. Grove

The books will not be ready for about a fortnight.
