SIR GEORGE FOWLDS
PACIFIC CLUB’S TRIBUTE Sir George Fowlds was the guest of honour at a luncheon of members of the Pacific Club yesterday in recognition of the honour recently conferred upon him by the King. Since the inception of the club, said Mr. James Robertson, who presided. Sir George had been a member and they all felt that the club had shared the honour. Sir George came to the Dominion with little money to carve out a livelihood for himself, but this he had done and had served the country faithfully and well. The honour had been well earned and he hoped that Sir George and Lady Fowlds would live long to enjoy it. Any public service he had performed had always given him the greatest personal satisfaction, said Sir George in reply. His greatest reward had been the many friends he had made in all walks of life. He thanked members for the honour they had done him.
