Contains (a) letters to S P Smith and Edward Tregear, Omahu Puriri, 1893-1894 (b) Manuscript of Maori, Tangata Maori, the first 11 pages of which appear to have been published in the JPS with additional waiata and translation by S P Smith (JPS v3 p27). The rest seems to remain unpublished. Contains much traditional history.
The letters contain information about attempts to date the settlement of New Zealand from Hawaiki using whakapapa and discrepancies between the whakapapa of various iwi, the transfer of Hawaiki placenames to New Zealand, and information associated with the arrival of the Tainui canoe; there are also whakapapa, waiata and proverbs and explanations of the proverbs, and notes about the Maori division of time; there are also notes about 19th century conflicts between Ngapuhi and Ngati Maru, and about Ngapuhi claims to the Kingitanga and associated titles
