Tuhia he haere tonu mō tēnei wāhanga - I haere a George Kennan ki ngā toenga o te maina i te tau 1885. I kii ia, "Ko Lunin, tetahi o nga kaiwhakatakoto whakaaro o Decembrist o 1825, i noho, i mate i roto i te mahi herehere i tenei maina, a kei tetahi waahi i te takiwa kei te tanumia te tini o nga tangata whenua Polani i tukuna ki Akatui i muri i te tutu o 1863
He aha? E kore te Kāwanatanga o Rūhia e whai ki te whakapumau i te maharatanga o ngā hara tōrangapū e whakamamaetia ana e ia ki te mate i roto i ōna whare herehere o Siberia, ā, i runga i ngā tinana pirau o te nuinga o rātau kāore he puranga. Ki te mea he wahi i Hiberia e noho mokemoke ake ana, e pouri ake ana, e wareware ake ana ki te Atua i a Kara, ko te raorao hukarere, motuhake o Akatui".
