spelling "attach"

The cause of the construction was "The War in the North" - that is the disturbances in the Bay of Islands. The origin of these was more directly the result of the capital being moved to Auckland from Russell in the Bay of Islands and the loss of trade opportunity for the local Maori. Indirectly the Treaty. Settlers moved to Auckland temporarily during this period.
