| Hirini Te Kani | TE KANI, HIRINI (1826-96) was closely related to Te Kani-a-Takirau, his great-grandfather, Tamai-hikitea-te-rangi, being first cousin to Hine-matioro. He was inclined towards the King movement, but refrained from accepting office or taking an active part. In later times he strenuously opposed the Hauhau emissaries in the East Coast district, and threw up defensive works. He died on 5 Jul 1896. Two years later the Government erected a monument to his memory at Gisborne. Cycl. NZ | Volume 1, page 242 |
