He had assisted many people and when approached had been one of the first to come forward with personal assistance or a contribution to help those in distress. His . passing had been a great loss to the city, ami his widow and family would have the sympathy of all members of the hoard. Mr A. E. Mansford (Mayor), supported Air Nash in all that had been said and stated that Air Lpuisson and the other members of the organisation would he particularly remembered for tliq assistance given at the time of the earthquake at Napier.
