  Volkner Incident - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Volkner Incident describes the murder of the missionary, Karl Volkner, in New Zealand in 1865 and the consequent reaction of the Government of New Zealand in the midst of The Land Wars, previously known as the Maori Wars.
The Battle of Te Ranga, June 21, 1864, was the last major conflict of the Tauranga Campaign and is also said to mark the effective end of the fighting involved with the Invasion of the Waikato.
It was suggested at the time that Volkner was spying for the government and this explained his murder.

 Pai Marire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
They were instructed to travel peacefully but ignored this instruction and as they travelled they exhorted the Maori to strong action against the Pakeha, especially missionaries.
At a place called Opotiki, the Anglican Missionary C. Volkner, who had sided with the government in the land wars, was ritually killed on the 2nd March 1865.
Thus the difference between Pai Marire and the Hauhau, the Hauhau sprang out of the same faith, the same concerns for the treatment of the Maori but saw the resolution of the problems between Maori and Pakeha as requiring the use of force.

 VOLKNER, Rev. Carl Sylvius - 1966 Encyclopaedia of New Zealand
Volkner was ordained deacon on 3 June 1860 and a priest in 1862, being appointed to Opotiki in 1861.
In 1865 there was an outbreak of typhoid at Opotiki, and Volkner, warned of an impending Hauhau attack, went with his wife to Auckland for medicines, leaving her there for safety.
Volkner was buried behind his church (St. Stephen the Martyr), but during extensions to the building in 1910 his grave was brought within the sanctuary.

 The Maori Law Review - November 1999
This was a typical use of the Mäori law of aukati, which was passive in intent and designed to make clear that the Volkner killing was a Whakatöhea affair, and not an attempt to hinder the government efforts to seek those responsible.
Despite the fact that both killings were distinct and did not indicate a general Ngäti Awa opposition to the Crown, the killings provided the excuse the government required to control a strategic area on the east coast.
The killers of Volkner and Fulloon were excluded from the pardon and confiscation was threatened for all tribes who concealed them.

From the deep south to the top of the north we have recorded a spate of accidents, incidents and mishaps involving commercial and passenger vessels - some with injuries, most without - and unfortunately one early this year which resulted in a subsequent fatality.
When enquiring around the coast among professionals as to why we are experiencing this increase in the number of incidents at sea, some advise that it is cyclic, and in fact the industry is reporting more incidents than in previous years.
