£5 NOTE RETURNED
The return of a New Zealand Reserve Bank £5 note to Mr. J. L. Leslie, of Christchurch, by his mother in England, who says that she cannot cash it, seems to bear out the truth in the assertions of many travellers recently that they were experiencing difficulties in changing New Zealand money, says the "Press." Mr. Leslie said that he had been in the habit of sending small remittances to England for some time, but this was the first occasion that a bank-note had been returned. Mrs. Leslie had made great efforts to change the £5 into English currency, but even the Bank of New Zealand had refused to handle the note.
