Notes military waistcoat of Col. William Hulme, 2nd Battalion, 96th Manchester Regiment, circa 1845-47 In February 1845, after re-erecting the flagstaff for the third time, the British decided to establish a regiment in Kororareka, with one section stationed at the flagpost. A detachment of the 96th regiment,commanded by col. William Hulme, and including the sloop "Hazard" were in place, providing a combined force of 140 soldiers, sailors and marines based in Kororareka. On 8th May 1845, following sacking of Kororareka, the British troops, led by Colonel William Hulme, commenced an attack on the uncompleted and vulnerable side of Puketutu pa but were forced to withdraw, after losing a quarter of their men. In addition to this, the heavily fortified pa was easily able to withstand musket fire, and without artillery backup Colonel Hulme had no choice but to retreat.
