BEING A SERIES OF LECTURES DELIVERED BEFORE THE OTAGO INSTITUTE; ALSO A LECTURETTE ON THE MAORIS OF THE SOUTH ISLAND. By The Late Dr. T. M. Hocken. WELLINGTON, N.Z. JOHN MACKAY, GOVERNMENT PRINTER. I9I4. MEMOIR: DR. THOMAS MORLAND HOCKEN, The British nation can claim the good fortune of having on its roll of honour men and women who stand out from the ranks of their fellows as examples of lofty patriotism and generosity of character. Their fine idea of citizenship has not only in the record of their own lives been of direct benefit to the nation, but they have shone as an example to others and have stirred up a wholesome senti- ment of emulation in their fellows. There has been no lack of illustrious examples in the Motherland, and especially so in the last century or so of her history. And if the Motherland has reason to be proud of her sons and daughters who have so distinguished themselves, so likewise have the younger nations across the seas. Canada, South Africa, Aus- tralia, New Zealand, each has its list of colonists who are justly entitled to rank among the worthies of the Empire, whose generous acts and unselfish lives have won for them the respect and the gratitude of their fellows ; and, as I shall hope to show, Thomas Morland Hocken merits inclusion in the long list of national and patriotic benefactors who in the dominions beyond the seas have set a worthy example to their fellows.

  • The Working Life of Thomas Ferens 1848 – 1888
    “The Southern World is my Home”: The Working Life of Thomas Ferens 1848 – 1888 Peita Ferens-Green March 2018 Word Count: 40,664 Contents Abstract 2 List of Figures 3 Acknowledgements 4 Introduction 6 Chapter One: Religious Influences, Intercultural Relationships and Examination of the ‘Self’, 1848 – 1851 25 Chapter Two: Pastoral Pursuits, 1852 – 1871 59 Chapter Three: A Mixed Slice of Life, 1872 – 1888 84 Conclusion 108 Bibliography 114 1 Abstract This thesis is a case study of Thomas Ferens, a Methodist lay preacher from England. Utilising personal testimony, it follows his life in New Zealand from 1848 – 1888, focussing upon his various occupational pursuits to explore how his sense of ‘self’ affected his migrant experience, analysing how he navigated life in the settlement, and how he was influenced by the world around him. Typically, migrant scholars using personal testimony focus on those of a (literate) middle to upper class status. A focus on Ferens, however, provides a working-class perspective. He similarly offers a perspective on Methodists in the Scottish Presbyterian Otago settlement. This work engages with studies of missionaries, religion in New Zealand, intercultural relations and constructs of self/other. It also addresses the impact of runholding and declaration of hundreds in North Otago and the need for personal mobility, both geographical and occupational, in this early period of settlement. 2 List of Figures Figure 1 Thomas Ferens; photograph, n.d.

He actively sought what he called “Historical Records” or “Early Records” from parishes and individuals, to preserve in the Connexional Office in Christchurch, in his role as Custodian of Early Records. As documents ranging from newspaper cuttings, photographs, letters, registers, recollections, research, original manuscripts, diaries and so on arrived, he would carefully annotate each envelope “Historical Records” and file the items. Over the years, many of these documents were dispersed throughout the storage areas. In 2006, they were brought back together, and along with subsequent donations of personal papers and manuscripts, catalogued as part of the Personal Papers and Historical Records Collection. The Personal Papers and Historical Records Collections also includes theses and essays. Any photographs have been stored with the Photographs Collection.

  • Me Tā Tāua Mokopuna
    New Zealand Journal of History, 49, 1 (2015) Me Tā Tāua Mokopuna THE TE REO MĀORI WRITINGS OF H.K. TAIAROA AND TAME PARATA THE TITLE OF THIS ARTICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN from a letter between Tame Parata and Hori Kerei Taiaroa (H.K), two influential southern Māori leaders of the later nineteenth century.1 The letter acknowledges with affection their shared grandchild, ‘me tā tāua mokopuna’, Te Matenga Taiaroa. Both men were important figures in both tribal and parliamentary politics whose legacies endure through their descendants, their political careers and their written work. Parata and H.K. left a considerable archive of writings in their native language, te reo Māori, and those texts are the focus of this essay. H.K. and Parata were born in the early nineteenth century, so their lives straddled the old Māori world and the modern world. As influential figures in a new generation of leaders they skilfully confronted the challenges posed by colonial rule, which was a fundamental element of their political reality, but they were both heavily influenced by the previous generation. Their fathers, who were veterans of tribal battles like that with Te Rauparaha in Ōraumoanui, were dominant forces in their lives. H.K. and Parata each took up the mantle of leadership, acting as rakatira (chiefs) and representing their people within the colonial political system. Both established extensive relationships amongst Māori and Pākehā and became skilful political and cultural negotiators. Exploring their writing in te reo, especially their correspondence, adds depth to our understanding of these key figures in tribal history and in the politics of southern New Zealand.

Some registers, particularly those still in use, are held by parishes.
