Notwithstanding the clemency shown by you on this occasion the Taipo people, later on, absolutely refused to allow matsheds or barracks for police to be erected near their villages, and when Mr. May again landed, on the 14th ultimo, he found the remaining matshed burnt to the ground, and the people assuming such a threatening attitude that it was necessary to re-embark at once: finally the situation in the Hinterland became serious that it was evident that the presence of troops at or in the neighbourhood of Taipo would be necessary a day or two before the date fixed for taking the country under British rule. No active Military resistance was anticipated but it seemed probable, that riots would occur.
