"Indeed, she was a pretty girl," says the old pakeha-Maori, recalling the dead past.
In his own little thatched whar that day sat Kimble Bent, the pakeha-Maori.
The pakeha-Maori was also a non-combatant, but he remained in the pa with Titokowaru until the firing began.
Von Tempsky's body, the pakeha-Maori had observed while on the marae, had not been mutilated, except for that tomahawk cut.
Hope for the Maories is in the younger elements who have that happy mixture in them, called Pakeha-Maori.
