accused murder of Carl Völkner

• The German missionary Carl Völkner murdered 1865

• 144,000 acres of land was confiscated under the New Zealand Settlements Act, 1863.

• punishment was given to chief Mokomoko who was executed May 17, 1866

• lost the coastline from Maraetōtara to the Waiaua River, and the sub-tribes were jammed into the Ōpape native reservation.

• This injustice was partially redressed in 1952 when a government grant established the Whakatōhea Māori Trust Board.
