IMPENDING DEPARTURES
1 LORD BLEDISLOE SAD. ’ [Per Press Association.—Copyrights CHRISTCHURCH, This Day. ; “I suppose I can call this a valedictory speech,” said the Governor-Gen-eral, Lord Bledisloe, when referring to his impending departure from New Zealand in the coux*se of a speech at a luncheon at the Showgrounds yesterday. “I must say with some sadness,” said His Excellency, “that my wife and I are shortly to flit to our ancestral haunts in the Old Land, but, speaking without exaggeration, we shall leave behind us no small part of our hearts and sympathies. None will learn of your returning prosperity with more genuine joy.”
