was chief over a village in the Waikare
District and was reported by newly arrived missionaries to be graceful, well
proportioned, strong and attractive to
women. Upon the death of his uncle,
Pomare I, he took his name as well as his
place as leader of Nga Puhi. Pomare II
was involved in trading with European
shipping and a supporter of European
settlement in the area. He signed the
Treaty of Waitangi on 17 February 1840.

the turmoil of inter-tribal warfare in the
period from 1819 through to the signing
of the treaty with endemic warfare and
violence, as a young woman she was
captured by a Taua party lead by Te
Rauparaha of Ngati Toa. Te Rauparaha’s nephew Te Rangihaeata took a
fancy to Pikinga and their subsequent
marriage affected a peace treaty between Ngati Apa and Ngati Toa. The
marriage laid the foundations of Ngati
Toa’s occupation of the Kapiti Coast.

The following lots: 309-377 come from the
estate of Captain Percy James Green
and form a collection put together by
him while working as a merchant sea
captain plying the Yangtze River. Green,
born June 1900, gained his Master’s ticket
at the port of Hong Kong in January
1924, he was in Hong Kong for a time
prior to this date, where he remained
in the employ of Butterfield and Swire,
a merchant shipping company until his
departure to Australia in late 1943. In 1944
he returned from his Australian holiday as
a passenger on the ‘Beehar’, which was
torpedoed and shelled by the Japanese
battleship ‘Tone’ on the morning of 9th
March, the Japanese ship continued its
shelling of the incapacitated ‘Beehar’
killing many of the passengers. Green
was one of the lucky survivors pulled
aboard a lifeboat then imprisoned in a
Tokyo prisoner-of-war camp. At the war’s
end he was released and travelled to Te
Kauwhata, N.Z., to recover. Returning to
Hong Kong in 1948 he met his wife-to-be,
whom he married that year coming back
to NZ and settling at Russell in the Bay of
Islands, making ‘Tahapuke’ a five acre
native bush coastal homestead their
residence from late 1948 until around
1958. Photos of this homestead can be
seen below and on the front cover of
this catalogue. Upon Green’s death the
collection passed to his descendant, our
vendor. No additions have been made
to the collection since 1948.
