    • OBITUARY.

      MRS. R. L. BUSCKE

      The death has occurred in Wellington, after a long illness, of Mrs. Ada Frances Buscke.

      Mrs. Buscke, who was born at "Homebush," Waipaoa, was the eldest daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Newman, well-known pioneer residents of the Gisborne district, and spent all her life in this district.

      She married Mr. R. L. Buscke in 1912, and during her married life lived at Tutamoe station, Tolaga Bay, and at Wharerata, where Mr. Buscke was in partnership with his brother, Mr. Charles Buscke.

      In 1921 they came to live at the old family home "Riverford," Ormond, where Mrs. Buscke spent the remainder of her life. Mrs. Buscke was known and respected by a wide circle of friends, and took an active interest in church functions connected with St. Luke's Parish, Wae-renga-a-hika.

      Being a keen lover of gardening, she was well known for her success as an exhibitor in floral work. She has been a member of the Ormond Women's Institute, the Women's Division of Federated Farmers, and the S.P.C A.

      Her husband predeceased her by nearly four years.

      She is survived by her only daughter, Mrs. G. T. Allcock, and one grandchild, of Cook Street, Gisborne; also by three brothers and three sisters, Mr. G. M. Newman, Patutahi; Mr. I H. Newman, Waipaoa; Mr. R. H Newman, Napier; Mrs. A. M. Trafford, Te Karaka, Mrs. W. E Ward. Waipaoa and Miss E. P. Newman, "Riverford," Ormond.
