The late Mr Lawson. came here from Victoria early in the sixties to superintend the construction of First Church, and afterwards followed his profession in this city for many years. About thirteen years ago, however, he returned to Melbourne, where he remained until two years ago, when he came back to Dunedin ,and entered into partnership with Mr j. L. Salmond. He was about 70 years of age .
