A coincidence that i 3 probably as unique as it is interesting came to light at the seventy-seventh annual reunion of the Otago Early Settlers' Association on Monday (says the "Otago Daily Times"). An old identity who had spent 61 years in Dunedin was conversing with another old identity, and during the coarse of conversation it was found that the two men had been bdys on the ship Resolute which arrived here in 1864. The two boys had parted at the jetty, one going into the country, and the other settling in the eity, and not for 61 years did they again see one another. It was a happy hour for those two old gentlemen as they sat and conversed of what the years had brought since they had parted as boys in the distant past.
