Mr 35. 33. Jones, an old bachelor of Milton (Otago), recently deceased, took the somewhat novel mode of distributing his accumulated wealth—amounting to £2OOO or £3OOO amongst his spinster friends, with whom he had been accustomed to spend many of his evenings. The sums awarded varied from £7OO to £2-50. These marriage portions will doubtless serve to keep Mr Jones’ memory green for many a year. THE NEW ZEALAND LAND MORTGAGE COMPANY (Limited).
