MEMORIAL BURSARY.
AT WELLINGTON COLLEGE.
TWO GALLANT OLD BOYS
(Per Press Association.) WELLINGTON, December 11. The Wellington College Board of Governors has received a letter from Mr John Gallie, of Kelburn, advising that he has paid to the Public Trustee £IOOO to be invested in a common fund, the amount of interest derived thereby to be paid to the Board for the establishment of a college burs'ary to perpetuate the memory of his two sons who made the supreme sacrifice in the Great War. They were Cantain Oscar E. Gallie, D. 5.0., M.C., R.F.A., and Captain Victor J. Gallie, M.C., C. deG., R.F.A. The donor expressed the wish that the Board might be long spared to award the bursary, and his desire was that it might stimulate the recipient to emulate his sons, both "old hoys" of the College, in character, patriotism and devotion to duty. .
The gift was gratefully received by the Board.
