Hall who taught at Tolaga Bay School from 1883-84. She includes details of fishing, gathering karaka and tutu berries, drying kumara and other food preparations which kept the family pataka or storehouse well-filled. She also briefly discusses land cultivation, the production of wheat, and some family anecdotes.
