for the whole. With regard to the fighting men, I think 
the natives are very correct in general, in giving the 
number in each tribe. 
I subjoin a calculation of the number of inhabitants in 
each district, and throughout the island. The most 
northern district of New Zealand is the vicinity of the 
North Cape. The tribe that formerly resided in this 
district was called the Aupouri; but this has ceased to 
exist as a tribe about thirteen years. The most northern 
tribe now is the Rarawa, which is scattered up and down 
the whole of the northern part of the island from the North 
Cape to Oruru Bay on the east coast, and to about fifteen 
miles to the northward of Hokianga on the west. I shall 
number the districts, beginning from the most northern.
