TARANAKI'S NEW ARCHDEACON
REV. F. G. EVANS APPOINTED. The Rev. F. G. Evana, late vicar of St. Mary's, is to be Archdeacon of Taranaki; so Bishop Crossley announced at the institution ceremony of the Rev. Colville last evening. He prefaced the pronouncement with a high eulogy of the work done by the Rev. Evans, and added that the new Archdeacon's functions would not always keep him in New Plymouth. In addition to being Archdeacon of Taranaki, the Rev. Evans would, under the. Bishop, have to supervise: all Home Mission work south of Auckland. He would also place himself at the disposal of the speaker from time to time to fill vacant cures for the time being, the filling of which was one of his (the speaker's) most pressing considerations. However, the major part of the late vicar's time would be spent in the Taranaki Archdeaconate, where he had won so many friends.
