He kaikeri ki te roto o Ōnoke

Kei te keri ēnei tāngata i tētahi awakeri e puta ai te wai o te roto o Ōnoke ki te moana. I te tau 1886 ka waihanga ngā Pākehā i te Poari o Ruamāhanga Awa kia āhei te huakitanga o te pūaha o te roto kia kore ai e waipuke. Ka whakahē ngā Māori i te mea he mahinga kai tērā nā rātou. I te tau 1892 ka ārai atu a Piripi Te Maari-o-te-rangi mā i tā rātou huakitanga o te pūaha o te roto. Engari i muri i te hemonga atu o Te Maari-i-te-rangi i te tau 1895, ka tuku ngā iwi o Wairarapa i ngā roto o Ōnoke me Wairarapa ki te kāwanatanga.
