• Notes

  OBITUARY MR W. E. SEARLE Mr Walter E. Searle, for many years one of the most respected citizens of Oamaru, passed away on Friday last at Timaru, where he was living in retirement. He was born at St. Denys, Southampton, and came to New Zealand with his parents on the Dunfilian about 70 years ago. As a boy he attended the old Stone School in Union street, Dunedin, and the North-East Valley School. He later settled in Oamaru, where he became one of the pioneers of the motor industry for North and Central Otago. Mr Searle took a leading part in the public life of Oamaru. He was a borough councillor for some years, one of the original members of the Beautifying Society, and a justice of the peace. He was also a Rotarian and a zealous Sunday school worker. His wife died 10 years ago, and he is survived by a grown-up family of two daughters and three sons - Sister R. A. Searle, of Timaru Hospital; Mrs R. Sutton, of Christchurch; Mr E. A. Searle, of Dunedin; Mr H. V. Searle, of Nelson; and Dr W. N. Searle, of London. Source: Otago Daily Times, 5 October 1943, Page 6.
