Fakatatau kia Palesiteni Palāsāta Kati ʻo e Vahefonua Haitalapati ʻInitiá, “Naʻe fakahoko ʻe heʻemau kau talavoú ha ngāue fakaʻofoʻofa ko hono fetuku ʻa e meʻakaí mo e vaí kiate kinautolu naʻe faingataʻaʻiá. Naʻe foaki mai ʻa e meʻakaí pea naʻe ʻosi aʻu mai pē ki he vahefonuá, ka naʻe ʻikai lava ʻe he puleʻangá ʻo tufa ia ki he kau faingataʻaʻia ʻe toko lauiafe naʻe ʻi he ngaahi ʻapitanga kumi hūfanga ʻe 200 tupu naʻe ʻi aí.

Ko ha tāpuaki maʻongoʻonga ke u lava ʻo tokoniʻi ʻa e kakai ʻi hoku fonuá.”
