NEVER SAW A RAILWAY.
A lady who is a visitor to Oamaru (says the "Mail"), although a resident of Otago for 47 years, had never until the other day, since her departure from the Old Land, seen a railway train, let alone enjoyed the pleasure of a railway journey, hsd never before seen a motor bicycle, and only once in the distance a motor car. On her arrival in Otago in the days of the gold rush she settled 1 in cne of the mining townships, and until her advent in Oamaru this week had never travelled far from her own neighborhood. Her view of a larger world has done nothing more than create in her a desire to get back to the seclusion of her country home.
