Harkness, for Franklin, Mr Arthur Hirst, formerly of New Zealand and recently . a visitor to Whangarei, had the unusual experience, says the London correspondent of the “Christchurch Press,” of delivering a pianoforte-lecture in the Swedish tongue on “Valuations in Music” before Swedish residents in London.
