It's a Fact...
THE WAIRAU INCIDENT
In 1843 the impetuous and ill-advised efforts of the New Zealand Company's Nelson leaders to acquire the Wairau Plains as a site for rural holdings led to the disastrous incident known as the Wairau massacre. Te Rauparaha and his brother-in-law disputed the ownership of the land and Maori interfered with the survey of the land. A detachment from Nelson was sent to sort out the situation, resulting in the killing of several leading settlers and a subsequent period of unrest.
