Octavius Hadfield

[extract from the diary of Octavius Hadfield]

Nov. 26th . . . Spent the day at Rangiuru, went about looking for a site for a small cottage to reside in occasionally. Much pleased with the young men, Roha and Haua, they are the most interesting young people I have yet seen. Felt sometimes discouraged at the apparent apathy of the people, but remembered that as a missionary it is my work to break up barren ground.
