HBH 1892 Oct 11 local news Messrs MOFFATT and PAIGE, the well known educational publishers, of Paternoster row, London, have sent us a specimen of a wooden set square scale, and protractor combined, for school work. It is a most useful little article. Householders will note that Mr A. MOODY, of Milton Road Napier, desires a share of the public patronage as a chimney sweeper. Mr Moody states that he prides himself on doing the work in a cleanly manner, and leaving no mess to be cleaned up after his departure, a point that will no doubt interest housewives. A spring meeting of the Hawke's Bay Gun Club was held at Farndon Park yesterday and a visitor from the Wairarapa Mr MEREDITH won the cup. Mr W.BROUGHTTON won the Cup Handicap and Mr PEAT of Wanganui, the Spring Handicap. The Athenaeum Hall was well filled last evening, when the Rev R.W.STEWART and Mr Eugene STOCK delivered addresses

HBH 1892 Oct 11 MOLE accident An accident of a serious kind happened yesterday afternoon, the result of which at this time of writing is still uncertain. A little boy named David MOLE, aged about five years, residing in the White Road was playing near his parent's house as the afternoon train was passing, he ran suddenly into the road, with a view to get nearer to the railway line, and was knocked down by a horse and trap being driven by Mr J. LOPDELL, Junr. The occurrence is purely accidental and reflects no blame upon the driver of the trap, as the poor little fellow ran out into the road so suddenly, in the excitement of watching the train, that it was impossible to stop the trap in time. The wheels, however, did not pass over the child, who was knocked down by the horse. Constable WARD, finding that the child was unconscious, had him conveyed to the hospital, where he was attended to. Later his parents took the child home, where he is now under the care of Dr. INNES. The poor little fellow had not recovered consciousness up till a late hour last night, but a fatal termination is not anticipated.

HBH 1892 Oct 11 COLLINS Waipawa James COLLINS, of Patangata A fire occurred on Thursday last in a slaughterhouse belonging to Mr James COLLINS of Patangata. It was being used as a smoke-house and by some unexplained means The building became ignited. Damage is estimated at £80 and there was no insurance.

HBH 1892 Oct 11 DENHOLM accident A lad named DENHOLM (son of Mr DENHOLM, PORT AHURIRI), met with a somewhat serious accident yesterday evening. He was riding a horse at the Spit, when the animal bolted with him in the direction of the town. The lad held on till HANNAH'S corner was reached, when the horse, in suddenly slewing to void collision with the posts threw him violently on to the pavement. Mr HOOPER, the well known theatrical agent, picked the boy up and carried him into Mr OWEN'S shop where he was examined. It was found that he was suffering from shock, but that no bones ere broken. He was subsequently placed in a cab and sent home. The horse was no stopped, and has probably found its way towards the Shamrock.

I have been trying unsuccessfully to find out information re a sheep rustling incident in Hawkes Bay circa 1929. I believe that the culprit (my father then aged 18) received a prison sentence. I presume that there would have been a report of this in one of the HB papers. Is this the correct place to post a request for this type of info? Sincerely Jaci Harris

I would like to thank Jeanette for advising about Papers Past being searchable. I had a look and discovered many useful bits of information about the Cottrells/Cotterills, including a report about my husband's grandfather who was run over by a train at Hastings. It was so interesting to find out more of what had happened to him. (He survived but had an arm amputated). Well worth a look!

My Grandfather Michael Lynn from Hastings had an association with a flax mill at Pakipaki. We thought that he was a worker there but a while ago I came across a reference to a flax mill at Pakipaki called "Lynn, Poppelwell and Co". The owner of the website it was on had collected the names of many NZ flax mills but had no idea where he got this information from and I can find no other reference to it. There was a mill there with a different name, which I think was burnt down in the late in the 19th C, but the 'Lynn' mill must have been there in the period 1900-1930. Can anyone confirm it's existence or throw any light on the mill?

HBH 1892 Oct 7 2 Police Court Hastings James BLAKE a spieler, brought before Dr. LINNEY and Mr HUGHES, J.P'S-charged with vagrancy. He pleaded "not guilty," >From the evidence it appeared that he was on the trotting course yesterday fleecing Maoris by betting with them and not paying them when they had won, asserting that they had backed the wrong number. The Bench found the charge proved, and as there was a previous conviction against the prisoner for disorderly conduct and obscene language, he was sentenced to a month's imprisonment with hard labor.
