Note. — The private soldiers, who found a nickname for every- body, styled Honi Heke "Jolinny Hicky. " From this arose an absurd story that Heke was an Irishman, who had taken service with the Maori in order to avenge his country's wrongs ! 171 CHAPTER XVI THE FALL OF KORORAREKA Governor Fitzroy once again appealed to New South Wales for aid and, on the very day on which the soldiers sailed from Sydney, Heke opened his campaign and scored his first success at Kororareka. A serious attack does n...ot seem to have been anticipated ; but a stockade had been erected for the benefit of the women and children, some light guns had been mounted, and the place garrisoned by half a company of regulars and a number of settlers. In addition, H. INI. S. Hazard was in the bay, her guns trained upon the approaches to the town. Heke first gave evidence of his presence by capturing Lieutenant G. Phillpotts of the Hazard, though he almost immediately released the gallant officer, in proof, he said, of his pacific intentions.
