CITY ENGINEER
MR. HART TO ARRIVE TO-DAY
Dominion Special.
Auckland, November 25.
With the arrival of the Arawa to-day, Mr. G. A. Hart, lately sewerage engineer at Leeds, completed the main portion of the long journey he is making to undertake his appointment as city engineer in Wellington. A pleasing personality and very popular among his fellow passengers, Mr. Hart was highly pleased with his first glimpse of the country of his adoption, the “Scotch Mist,” as he described it, clearing away just as the vessel anchored in the stream and leaving a full panorama of the citv and its surroundings. Mr. Hart said that he had made attempts to leave first by the Ruahine, and later bv the Tainui, but his affairs could not be settled until the departure of the Arawa from Liverpool. The delay was compensated by the fact that Mrs Hart and their little daughter (aged four) were, under the deferred arrangements, able to accompany him. A. son aged 14 remains in England, where he is being educated at Haileybury. Mrs. Hart is the daughter of Mr. J. H. Slingsby, formerly an alderman in Warwick County, ” England. The party left this evening for Wellington.
