"EARLY AUCKLAND."
LECTURE AT EPSOM LIBRARY.
"The Birth and Infancy of a City" was the eubject of a particularly interesting lecture given by the Rev. C. A. B. Watson in the Epsom Library last evening. Mr. S. Irwin Crookes presided over a large attendance. Auckland was the particular city of which the lecturer traced the early history, and on the foundation and settlement of which he spoke. Mr. Watson referred to the wonderful work of the pioneers of New Zealand, and also of the earliest of the missionaries to reach the country. He paid special tribute to the Rev. Samuel Marsden and Archdeacon Williams. The lecture was illustrated by a series of lantern elides which were reproductions of old etchings, photographs and charts of early Auckland.
