MAYOR'S TRIBUTE
"A CHRISTIAN GENTLEMAN"
"I have learned with deep regret of the death of Sir Charles Luke," said the Mayor (Mr. Hislop) today. "He reached a ripe old age, and was able to look back on a long career of fine and useful public service. He will long I be remembered for his great work in connection with hospital administration and en many philanthropic institutions. For a time he was Mayor of Wellington. Outside his services on public bodies he will be remembered for his outstanding personality and for ■ his friendliness to the people of Wel : lington. He was a man, too, who did much for others in a quiet, unobtrusive way. He will live in the memory of: Wellington people as a fine character imbued with the ideals of a Christian' gentleman,"
