I te pō o te Parairei, te 30 o Oketopa, ka eke ngā hōia 600 ki runga ki te tima i huaina ko te Paionia – ko te tima i hangaia houtia nei i Pō Hākene mō roto i Waikato – kātahi ka rere atu taua tima, me tētahi atu hoki, ū atu ana i te ata pō o te Hātarei ki Takapau – ki te taha ki runga o Meremere – kātahi ka tukuna atu ki uta aua hōia. Ka haere rātou mā uta ki te whenua teitei, tae ki te huanui e anga ana i Meremere ka anga atu ki Rangiriri (ko te taha ngāwari hoki tēnei hei kōkiritanga mā rātou ki te pā, ki Meremere). Kātahi ka keria tā rātou parepare i reira koi ohorere i te hoariri.
Whakaritea ana e te Tinara (te rangatira o ngā hōia katoa) hei ā te Manei, i te ata pō anō, ka kōkiri te 600 rā ki te pā whawhai ai. Ko ia, ko te Tinara, me te nuinga atu o te hōia hei ētahi taha huaki ai mā runga i ngā poti. Ko te taha ki uta anake anō o te pā i tuwhera, otirā, he moana wai katoa a uta i te nui o te ua, i te puke o ngā awa katoa o reira. Heoi, titiro ana ngā tāngata o roto o te pā ka tae te Pākehā ki te taha ki runga, ki te taha waingōhia, ka pāwera te ngākau, ka mataku, nō te mea ko mua anake o te pā, ko te tauranga waka, i hangaia ki te parepare.
