WELL-KNOWN MAORI
WOMAN
DEATH AT LOWER HUTT
The death occurred at her home at Epuni, Lower Hutt, on Thursday, of Mrs. Manutekura Peck, one of the oldest, if not the oldest resident of the Hutt Valley. Mrs. Peck was twice married, her first husband being Honiana Te Puni, a grandson of the-well known old chief of the early days.
Mrs. Peck was born in New Plymouth, and was a member of the Atiawa tribe. She often spoke, of the Maori Wars of the sixties, but her tribe were neutrals, and Mrs. Peck had recollections of members of her tribe conveying munitions and food in bullock wagons to the various military posts.
When Mrs. Peck was 17 years old, her marriage with Honiana Te Puni was arranged, and her family brought her to Petone, where the marriage took place. The ceremony was performed at the home of the old chief, Mrs. Peck being the second bride of the tribe to be married there.
For many years, before her marriage to Mr. George Peck, Mrs. Peck lived with Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Love, Mr. Hapi Love''s parents, at Waiwetu. A tangi is being held at the Maori hall. Mrs. Peck had no children.
