KEY POINTS:
Labour Party President Mike Williams, Sir Howard Morrison and ex-National MP Roger McClay were all players in the New Zealand First-Owen Glenn donation row.
In a chain of emails, Mr Glenn revealed that the same day he called Mr Peters he met with Mr Williams.
Emails showed he previously sought his advice about Mr Peters.
The paper chain started on August 3 2005 when Mr Glenn was emailed by Mr McClay on August 3 2005. Mr McClay wanted to set up a meeting with him and New Zealand First leader Winston Peters.
The following day Mr Glenn emailed Mr Williams and Sir Howard asking their views on Mr Peters. "Any views. I know who he is but not sure what he wants."
The meeting went ahead and Mr Glenn then wrote to Mr Williams on August 13. He said he had a "very informative hour with the charismatic Winstone (sic) Peters." He believed NZ First would do well in the election and he would continue to talk to him.
On Monday August 22, Mr Glenn wrote to Mr McClay again in response to a letter from him on August 19. He said it was a pleasure meeting Mr Peters and regretted he could not assist "at this time".
On December 5, a Glenn staffer emailed Mr Williams about a message Mr Peters left on Mr Glenn's answer machine.
"Owen wanted to know if you had any input prior to his call to Winston," she wrote.
An email dated December 12 then talked about what day Mr Glenn and Mr Williams could meet.
A Telstra phone bill showed a call to Mr Peters' cellphone lasting 6min 41sec from Mr Glenn at 11.26am on December 14.
The next emails - the same day - are between Mr Glenn and Mr Peters' lawyer Brian Henry about the account into which the money was to be banked.
One comment from Mr Henry clearly referred to the phone call between Mr Peters and Mr Glenn: "further to your discussion with my client at 1.30 NZT..."
On December 20, Mr Glenn says he had instructed the bank and the money would be there within three to four days.
Other evidence was about which year Mr Peters and Mr Glenn met at the Karaka sales. Mr Glenn always maintained it was 2006 and Mr Peters has since said he is unsure.
In an email on January 31, 2006, Mr Glenn wrote to two men talking about his upcoming lunch with Peters at Karaka.
An affidavit from Paul Moroney, a bloodstock consultant and racehorse trainer, said he was at the lunch.
"... part of the conversation between Mr Peters and Mr Glenn involved Mr Peters thanking Mr Glenn for his help to him."
He said Mr Glenn told him the reason for the lunch was because of the donation.
