Excerpt from Old New Zealand: A Tale of the Good Old Times The little schooner neared the land, and as we came closer and closer, I began in a most unaccountable manner to remember all the tales I had ever heard of people being baked in ovens, with cabbage and potato fixins. I had before this had some considerable expe rience of savages, but as they had no regu lar system of domestic cookery of the nature I have hinted at, and being, as I was in those days, a mere pakeha (a character I have since learned to despise), I felt, to say the least, r'ather curious as to the then existing demand on shore for butchers' meat.

Excerpt from Glimpses of Maori Land French thinker says, When one has lived four weeks in London, one feels one could write a thick volume about the English; when one has lived there a year, one begins to have doubts on the subject; and when one has lived there ten years, one gives up the projected volume in despair.' There is, however, as a rule, a compensating freshness and vividness about first impressions which, with a riper knowledge, one may often vainly strive to recall; and for this reason, and also because our sea and land experiences were of a somewhat unique character, I have ventured to reproduce some part of our home budgets in more permanent form. On one or two points it may be well to Speak categorically at the outset, so that any chance of misapprehension on the important subject of mission work may be avoided.

Excerpt from A Trip to Maoriland New Zealand, the land of the Maori and the Moa, the country in which originally there was not a flower with a perfume or a bird that sang, was one of the most mys terious and desolate lands on this hemisphere. 'out of the track of the early mariners it was a great undertak ing in the' years gone by to reach there, vessels taking six to eight months to reach its shores, where now it can be accomplished in about forty-five days. Ac cording to some it was uninhabited till by gales or tribal wars members of the Kanaka tribe (sandwich Islands) were driven to seek an asylum in this wild and mystic country To bear out that theory the customs of the Maoris and the Kanaka are similar; but, through clim atic conditions, they have grown taller and sturdier. As to animal life there was none until Captain Cook, the discoverer, landed some pigs, which fact, no doubt, was the cause of canibalism being practiced. Now, what a transformation, fine cities, large tracts of cultivated land, woolen and other manufactories, gold and coal mining, an immense frozen meat industry, with wool and wheat as a background; in fact everything that goes to make a prosperous country is inrfull swing. The one thing is left, and will be there for all time, its grand and wildly rugged coast line, for it has that peculiarity, that its interior is sheltered from the rude blasts of. gales, as a garden protected by a high wall.

Excerpt from The Stars of Maoriland Of all the stars that shine upon us on cloudless nights, how many of them are there that we can point to and name? In olden days every Maori would call the stars by their musical Maori names. He watched for their rising and setting, he planted his crops when the stars were favourable, and his canoes on their long ocean voyages were guided by the stars.

Excerpt from Maoriland Fairy Tales Somewhere far across the sea lies Hawa-iki, that wonderful Motherland where the sun's rays glow from early dawn to sudden night. Nobody knows now where that Old land is, nobody has ever found it again, but its far-strewn sons and daughters still tell of its remembered glories, its radiant sunshine, its flowers and butterflies, its white-topped mountains and its mighty streams. Some think it may have been India, while others say it must have been some age-old continent which has since sunk and now lies buried under the Pacific Ocean.
