"A GREAT COLONISER." The London Times Literary Supplement says:—"The book is welcome ae another testimony to the present generation's reawakened interest in the real pioneers of British colonisation—the Godleys and Cargills so to Bpeak, of New Zealand, the Angaseß and Sturts and Lights of South Australia, and their congeners. We may thank Dr Merrington, too. for his timely reminder that the founder of Otago were the Pilgrim Fathers of the Scottish Disruption; and for the reminder of a very different kind, the rescue from oblivion of Poet Laureate Southey's astonishing discovery that tigers frequented the New Zealand hills! " The book is obtainable from booksellers, or from the publishers, the Otagp Daily Times and Witness Company, Sunedin. Price, 7s 6d, plus post, 4d.—-Attvt. '
