Te Wheora, a Maori chief and native magistrate of New Zealand, 1864. Creator: Unknown
Te Wheora, a Maori chief and native magistrate of New Zealand, 1864. Illustration relating to '...the history of those unhappy disputes with the confederation of Maori tribes in the Waikato country winch have led to the present war. We have engraved...a portrait of Te Wheora and three of his tribe, on board the gun-boat Pioneer, in the Waikato River. Te Wheora is one of the few Maori chiefs who still adhere to the British Government. He receives from the Colonial Treasury a salary of £150 a year as the native magistrate of his own district. He acted as guide to our troops in their advance on Rangariri. He wears a gold band around his cap as a mark of distinction'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864
