• Notes

  OBITUARY An old Poverty Bay resident in the person of Mr. Herbert Octavius Bousfield passed away on Friday afternoon, following, a long illness. Mr. Bousfield had resided in this district for the last fifty-three years, and as a boy he attended the Makauri school, completing his education at the Hawke's Bay Grammar School, Napier. He was born in Hawke's Bay, and for the major part of his life he had been connected with stock, and was for about 20 years on the old Te Arai estate. He was exceedingly well-known for his kindly disposition and had gained the respect of all who knew him. He was the second son of the late Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Bousfield, and his two brothers, Edward and Frederick, and his step-sister, Mrs. Luttrell, reside in Poverty Bay. The late Mr. Bousfield leaves a family, comprising Messrs. Fred. (Gisborne), and Roy (Waipukurau), and the Misses Rita, Nellie and Lorna Bousfield. The funeral took place yesterday afternoon at the Makaraka cemetery.
