Te Ruki Kawiti

I te wā o te pakanga i Te Tai Tokerau (1845-46), ka uru ngā ope a Kawiti rāua ko Heke ki te whawhai ki ngā hōia o Ingarangi. Nō te wā i tae mai a Kāwana Hōri Kerei i te 1845, ka māmingatia ngā hōia o Ingarangi e Kawiti ki te pā o Ruapekapeka, ka whakarērea te pā, ā, ahakoa ehara i te wikitōria mō te taha Ingarihi, ka noho a Kawiti rāua ko Heke ki te hohou i te rongo. Ka kitea i konei ngā pūkenga a Kawiti ki ngā tikanga kawe riri me tana mōhio ki te hanga pā tūwatawata.

Ka hemo ia i Waiomio i te 5 o ngā rā o Mei, 1854.
