ST. MARY’S CATHOLIC MEN’S CLUB, HOKITIKA

(From the club correspondent.) May 29. On Tuesday last at St. Mary’s Club, a presentation was made to Mr. H. Kortegast. The president (Mr. N. Warren) referred, in the course of his speech, to the excellent work done by Mr. Kortegast during his term of office as a member of the committee. The presentation, which took the form of a gladstone bag, was then handed to the recipient, who, on rising to reply, was greeted with applause. Mr. Kortegast thanked the president for his kind remarks, and the club for their generous appreciation of his willing services. / He expressed his regret at having to sever his connection with St. Mary’s Club, and said he would always have the

interests of his old club at heart, and he would rejoice to hear of the success of its undertakings'. Mr. Kortegast is about to take up a position in Napier.
