Description

Says he is without any clothes, has no trousers, blue or other shirts, and writes to him for some consideration. Asks that he show generosity to him, because his clothes were ruined during his work at Muia-te-naenae[?] and he is now poor. Asks again for his generosity. Signs as ‘Karanama, your son who wrote waiata [songs] for you in the past’.
