PERSONAL ITEMS.
Mr J. A. Frostick, Canterbury Commissioner on tho National Elriciency Board, returned from Wellington by Tuesday's ferry steamer. Private advices from Wellington state that the Hon. C. A. C. Hardy, M.L.C., who has been seriously ill with bronchitis, supervening on influenza, is now progressing favourably. Prior to tho opening of the fat sheep sale at the Addington saJeyards yesterday, Mr H. D. Macdonald (Messrs Pyno and Co.) made reference to the death of tho late Mr G. W. Clark son. Everyone who attended those yards and who knew Mr Clarkson, held the same opinion of him, that ho was a good judge of stock, that he was perfectly straight in all his dealings, and, in short, ho was a "whit© /nan." He had had a great deal to do with Mr Clarkson in connexion with stock transactions on behalf of his firm, both in buying and selling, and he would be a hard man to replace. Mr F. H. Steel moved that a letter of sympathy and condolence should be sent to the members of the late Mr darkson's family. Mr L. Matson seconded the motion, and he, together with Sir W. W. Morton (Messrs Balgety and Co.), endorsed Mr Macdonald's remarks.
