• Notes

  OBITUARY. DISTRICT IDENTITY MR. R. L. BUSCKE Mr Richard Lambert Buscke, whose death occurred last Saturday, was a well-known identity of the Gisborne and surrounding districts. He was the second son of the late Mr and Mrs W. C. Buscke and was born at Patea in 1876. He came to Gisborne with his parents in 1881, his father then being a Government surveyor. At an early age he went on the land and later became manager of several well-known sheep stations. At a later date he took over Tutamoe station at Tolaga Bay, where he lived for seven years, and following that he acquired a sheep station in partnership with his brother at Wharerata. In 1912 Mr. Buscke married Miss Ada Frances Newman, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Newman, "Homeburn", Waipaoa. A member of the Cosmopolitan Club and in his early years a member of the Gisborne Racing Club, he always retained an interest in that sport. Since 1921 Mr. Buscke lived at Ormond and during the past year he was frequently an inmate of the hospital, where his bright and cheery nature helped him to bear his recent illness with great fortitude. His wife survives him and there is one daughter, Mrs. G. T. Allcock, Gisborne, and one grandson. His brother, Mr. George Buscke predeceased him by some years, and Mr. Cyril Buscke, Manutuke, Mr. Charles Buscke, Auckland, and Mr. Oscar Buscke, Sydney, his three remaining brothers, also survive him.
