  OBITUARY DEATH OF MISS C. FRASER. A PIONEER SETTLER. BULLS, Nov. 30. The death occurred at Wanganui on Thursday of Miss Catherine Fraser, the last of a pioneer family of Rangitikei, her father, the late Duncan Fraser, and his wife coming from the Old Country and settling at Parewanui when there were few white people in this district. Miss Catherine Fraser was born at "Pukehou" just over 90 years ago, and on the death of her father went to Patea, where she conducted a private school for some 20 years, eventually going on to Aramoho, where she spent her later days. Representatives of pioneer families attended the funeral at the Fraser private cemetery, Bulls, on Friday, among the mourners being Mr J. J. McDonoll, of Marton, whose father, the late James McDonell, was the first white man in Rangitikei, taking up farming at "Inverhoo." Rev. T. G. Shilton conducted the service at the graveside, and the pall-bearers were Messrs J. E. Walker, R. C. S.McKenzie, C. Fraser, K. Fraser, R. F. Scott, and D. Campion.
