TWENTY YEARS AGO
EARLY MOTORISTS Two interesting items from the “New Zealand Motor Journal,” 1907: A one-time Christchurch gentleman in Mr. R. Acton-Ada ms was in town last week on his way to his Moa Flat Station at South Otago, writes our Dunedin correspondent. Mr. Adams was driving a handsome 15 horsepower four-cylinder Ford with canopy top and glass windshield. Dr. B. de Lautour, of Dunedin, has taken delivery of his 7-9 Stuart car, and has started out on his professional rounds with the machine. The doctor has had boots fitted to the two back wheels and will also carry a spare Stepney wheel. This is the second Dunedin medico to use the motor as a means of getting round to his patients.
