Yes
!
the
Maories
do
not
search
their
prisoners
.
But
,
Edward
,
this
is
for
us
,
not
for
them
.
"
Glenarvan
slipped
the
revolver
under
his
coat
;
at
the
same
moment
the
mat
at
the
entrance
was
raised
,
and
a
native
entered
.
He
motioned
to
the
prisoners
to
follow
him
.
Glenarvan
and
the
rest
walked
across
the
"
pah
"
and
stopped
before
Kai-Koumou
.
He
was
surrounded
by
the
principal
warriors
of
his
tribe
,
and
among
them
the
Maori
whose
canoe
joined
that
of
the
Kai-Koumou
at
the
confluence
of
Pohain-henna
,
on
the
Waikato
.
He
was
a
man
about
forty
years
of
age
,
powerfully
built
and
of
fierce
and
cruel
aspect
.
His
name
was
Kara-Tete
,
meaning
"
the
irascible
"
in
the
native
tongue
.
Kai-Koumou
treated
him
with
a
certain
tone
of
respect
,
and
by
the
fineness
of
his
tattoo
,
it
was
easy
to
perceive
that
Kara-Tete
held
a
lofty
position
in
the
tribe
,
but
a
keen
observer
would
have
guessed
the
feeling
of
rivalry
that
existed
between
these
two
chiefs
.
The
Major
observed
that
the
influence
of
Kara-Tete
gave
umbrage
to
Kai-Koumou
.
They
both
ruled
the
Waikato
tribes
,
and
were
equal
in
authority
.
During
this
interview
Kai-Koumou
smiled
,
but
his
eyes
betrayed
a
deep-seated
enmity
.

Kai-Koumou
interrogated
Glenarvan
.
"
You
are
English
?
"
said
he
.
"
Yes
,
"
replied
Glenarvan
,
unhesitatingly
,
as
his
nationality
would
facilitate
the
exchange
.
"
And
your
companions
?
"
said
Kai-Koumou
.

"
My
companions
are
English
like
myself
.
We
are
shipwrecked
travelers
,
but
it
may
be
important
to
state
that
we
have
taken
no
part
in
the
war
.
"
"
That
matters
little
!
"
was
the
brutal
answer
of
Kara-Tete
.
"
Every
Englishman
is
an
enemy
.
Your
people
invaded
our
island
!
They
robbed
our
fields
!
they
burned
our
villages
!
"
"
They
were
wrong
!
"
said
Glenarvan
,
quietly
.
"
I
say
so
,
because
I
think
it
,
not
because
I
am
in
your
power
.
"
