Jackson, who took up his residence in Auckland some time ago, is at present paying a visit to the Wairarapa and is staying with Mr and Mrs Howard Jackson, of Carterton. Though he is over eighty years of age, Mr Jackson is reasonably hale and hearty and maintains his keen interest .in Masterton and the Wairarapa, in which he spent many years of public-spirited activity. The death has occurred at Palmerston North of Mr G. H. Elliott. He was one of the most interesting figures in the history of art in this country. Mr Elliott was appointed art master at the Palmerston North Technical School in 1906, and many local art students benefited from his wide experience. Himself an accomplished painter, Mr Elliott is represented in many New Zealand art galleries, his work portraying the scenic beauties of the Dominion. The death occurred in Napier last night of Mr Francis William Triggs, one of Napier’s most highly respected citizens.

For several years he represented that firm in Hawke’s Bay as traveller and was then appointed Napier manager, holding that position till he retired in 1923. He was keenly interested in cycling, rowing and yachting.
