TAITA ANGLICAN CHURCH
(To the Editor.)
Sir,—l would like to point out a mis- [ take in connection with a picture which appeared in your paper during this week. I refer to a portion of the cemetery at the Anglican Church, Main Road, Taita, and the building, under which were printed the words "Let the Church stand in the churchyards." The church is in the churchyard, and was built more than eighty years ago by the late Mr. S. Hirst and his son John. It is the oldest church in the Diocese of Wellington. The other building of the picture is the Sunday School and social hall. The section of land on which it stands was given (many years after the church was built) by the late Mrs. Wm. Welch, of Taita, and built by Mr. H. Meager, about 1886.—1 am, etc., M. C. RONNING.
