The Late Sir David Hutchens.

A tribute was paid to the memory of the late Sir David Hutchens on September 14th last when a representative gathering of those interested in forestry and the timber industry took place at the Karori Cemetery to witness the ceremony of planting a young kauri tree upon the grave of the late Sir David Hutchens. The ceremony was performed by Sir James Wilson, President of the New Zealand Forestry League, and in a suitable speech he outlined the valuable work performed by the deceased gentleman, and its great importance to the future of New Zealand. Sir Francis Bell also made fitting tribute.
