HBH 1892 Sept 10 2 Brown Rev George The Rev. George BROWN, D.D., F.R.G.S., general secretary of the Australian Wesleyan Board of Foreign Missions, will shortly pay a visit to Napier, when he will preach and lecture in Trinity Church. Dr. BROWN is widely known as one of the most eminent of living missionaries. In his pioneer labours in New Britain, New Ireland, and more recently in British New Guinea, he has displayed rare qualities of heroism and devotion to a noble cause, while it has been given to few missionaries to see such rapid changes wrought under the influence of Christianity among the cannibal tribes of the South Pacific.

The property was bought in by the mortgagee, Mr J.G. GILBERD. Yesterday morning at Hastings Mr H. NAPHTALI sustained a serious shaking and severe injuries to both legs through being knocked down by a baker's cart. The boy in charge of the cart was driving at a rapid rate over the railway crossing at Heretaunga-street, and Mr NAPHTALI, who was crossing the road, was knocked down.

HB Herald, June 8, 1894 We yesterday stated that a house sold by auction by Messrs BAKER and TABUTEAU had been bought in by the mortgagee, Mr J.G. GILBERD. We are requested to say that he was only mortgagee in his capacity of trustee for the Court of Foresters. We have received from Mr E.J. MOUNTIER a mounted photograph of his drawing of Napier in the year 1864. This picture, in addition to its artistic merits, has a decided historic value. The contrast between the shingle beach of thirty years ago, with its few unpretentious edifices, and the Napier of to-day, constitutes an object lesson in the progress of this district and of the colony as a whole.

HB Herald, June 9, 1894 SHIPPING NEWS: Passenger departures - June 8 - Australia, s.s., for Northern ports. Passengers - Messrs BECK, ROBERTSON, and PENDER; Master JOHNSON. At the general meeting of the Hawke's Bay Jockey Club yesterday, the following new members were elected:- Dr. HAIGH, Messrs S. CHARLTON, G.L. SUTHERLAND, C.L. MACKERSEY, and AKUHATA. Some time after dark last night considerable damage was done to the ornamental iron fence surrounding Mr WATERWORTH's monumental masonry yard in Clive-square. The miscreant who did this must have been a strong man or else used a crowbar or similar instrument. A panel of the fence was torn out, and the Oamaru stone coping, fastened to the brickwork by an iron bolt going through the wall into the earth, was also dislodged. Possibly the perperator of this outrage may be the one who damaged the Herald office some days ago. It is very evident that we have not enough police protection. Waipawa - It is stated that Mr B.B. JOHNSON has fallen in for a handsome fortune by the death of his uncle, and that he left by the Ionic from Lyttelton the other day en route for his home in Armagh, Ireland.
