Nā William Mein Smith tēnei tānga nō te tekau tau atu i 1850, e whakaatu ana i Ngā Rā o Kupe, kei te taha rāwhiti o te whanga o Palliser. Ka ingoatia te wāhi nei mō ngā pari teatea, ka rite ki ngā rā whakatere waka. He mārama te kite i ēnei pari i roto i te kākāriki o te wao. E ai ki te kōrero, i reira te puni a Kupe rāua ko Ngake. Nāwai ā, ka tohe te tokorua nei, ko wai te mea kakama rawa ki te hanga rā. Ka toa ko Kupe. Whāia, ka whakairia e rāua ō rāua rā ki aua pari.
