Octavius Hadfield
[extract from the diary of Octavius Hadfield]
Nov. 28th . . . Left Ohau and returned to Rangiuru, about 6 miles, road very good at low water. Was much interrupted by natives while endeavouring to read in my tent. Walked out to look for a site for a house, fixed on one that I think will do. The people here are not very attentive—but few only assemble for prayers.
