NELSON'S NEW CATHEDRAL.
PROPOSED LOFTY SPIRE.
•The plans for the new Kelson Anglican Cathedral have been adopted, and the construction of the first part of the building will soon be commenced. This portion will comprise the chancel transept and part of the nave, thus enabling the tower and spire to be erected. The spire will be 9ft. higher than that of the Christchurch Cathedral. A sum of £20,000 is in hand, but Bishop Sadlier stated at a meeting last week that another £25,000 or £30.000 was needed to complete the first- part of the building. The estimated cost of the entire scheme is £80,000.
