BY THE LIGHT OF OTHER DAYS
THE COAST IN THE SIXTIES TOWNS THAT SPRANG UP IN A NIGHT STIRRING TIMES RECALLED
In most districts of Now Zealand the history of settlement dates from somewhere about , 1840. On tho West Coast the great date froiri which all reckonings are made came a quarter of a century later —in 1865. It was then that the Hokitika rush began. A wild stampede, from all parts of New Zealand and Australia set in to tho diggings, and. within 20 months there were some 50,000 people on tho fields, where previously tho total muster had been a little over 800. Tho gold discoveries gave an immense impetus to the whole colony.. In a few years the European population was doubled, and the influx of., new' blood altogether changed tho outlook for tiio country. Before tho 'sixties tho. agricultural and'pastoral industries had been the mainstay of tho little community.,' There was no frozen meat or dairy produce trade in those days, and the farmers' 'prospects were by no means cheerful. In the nick of time canio the gold rushes. Thousands of diggers wero clamouring for foodstuff in Otago and Wostland, and a-vast market for all kinds of produce sprang into existence. Had it not been for this, the farmers of New Zealand would in many cases have been- sorely taxed to tide over the time until tho days of cold storago began in-'the 'eighties. The newcomers oii the goldnelds also included many 'able., and vigorous men, and there aro few cities and towns in tho Dominion to-day that do not muster among their be.st Unown inhabitants a good sprink-ling'of-old-time. AVos't; Coasters. '.
(Before the diggers came the explorers. The first of these of whom history tells anything was Captain Cook, who in March,. 1770, sailed along 'the coafit from tho South Capo to Capo Farewell.
Captain Cook did not land, and was content to view ilio towering walls of mountains from tbo deck of his ship. Tho bones of two other vessels that may not have been so very long after Cook have been found at different spots on tho coast. Of their story and those that sailed in them nothing is known, nor is ever likely to be. In tho .'thirties the sealing and whaling trade was in full swing, and sealing parties under Green and Toms, are known to have visited several places from Cape Foulwind to Cape Farewell. Other parties worked up from the Bluff, ami ono boat's crew was in 1838 slain and eaten by the Maoris then settled in South Westland. Pioneer Explorers. Fivo years after tho founding of Nelson the New Zealaud Company in 1815 sent two ol its surveyors. to report on tho West Coast as a Hold for settlement. These two gentlemen, tho lato Messre. llcaphy (afterwards Major Heaphy, V.C.) and Thomas Brunner, travelled on foot,from West Wanpanui, near Capo Farewoll, to tlio Grey llivor.. They reported unfavourably on tho district, and described tro rivers as not lit for coasting vessels to enter. Shortly afterwards Mr. Thomas Brimnor, in 1847, started from Foxhill, Nelson, and followed the Bulloi , lliver from its source to the sen. This was one of the most difficult.journeys ever undertaken by any explorer in Now Zealand. Accompanied only by two Natives, and
living mainly ■ on. ce-te -aiKl Vera roqiSii Mr. Brunnor was ab-seiit frorn Kt>]-"1 son for eightcfiii montlis. Af'tur arriving at the maVith of tlio Ji-ullor he proeoeded along the coast io t'be Grey, and lliem-e otiwiud niuil tie jreached the \Vailio River, about SO. 5
miles south of HoJdtikn. Yliis was hi flood, ami as he was iwt able to cross it, Mr. Brunuer retraced his steps to the Grey. Travailing up Use Grey ltivor, lie discovered en route tho Briumor coal scam, thus making the first recorded discovery of coal on the West Coast. Another notable explorer <»:f Use early days was Sir. James Mackay. ll© made his'first expedition of importance in 1855 at the ago- or' twenty-four, in company with Sir. Joliii Cbike,- aftil traversed the tocjurtamous country around the headwaters <s.f tiro Karamea. Two years later he travelled tfcwft the coast from West Waßganni to the Bullor with two Natives. From the Bnllcr, iMi;.' ilackay vront ou to tho Grey, and then to Aliawa and Mawlieraiti. During this visit both' tfco Bnfler and Grey bars wcro sounuett, and tho rivers found to bs navigabte for coasting craft. Air. Jfacliay's next expedition tp (-lie . Const was mado i'roin tto Canterbury side- across tho eeiiiral mtigos. Accompanied by his eousin, Mv, Alexaudci , Mackay, Mr. John Kochfeirt, si\ii two survey labourers crossed in 1838 from tho headwaters of tho- Hufunut to tlis Tcrcniafcau.

Towards the end of the tallowing, year Mr. Maekny went to Auckland, and 'Governor instructed; him to return to the Coast, make ten thousand acfes of reserves, ink!- give t]«!
