BISHOP VOICES TRIBUTE
MISSIONER IN CITY KF.IiYR'E TO COMMUNITY (Pur Press Association.) WELLINGTON, last night. "On May 29 there was called to a higher service one who almost became a legend in the life of the church of New Zealand, Thomas Fielden Taylor," said the Bishop of Wellington, the Right Rev. 11. St. Barbe Holland, at the Wellington Anglican synod. "Perhaps he approached nearer to a St. Francis of Assisi than any other priest most of us have known," continued the bishop. "He was utterly reckless of self, and in spite of his constant physical infirmity, he used to the full the vast dynamic energy at his disposal for the good of the community as a whole, and made an undying place for himself in the memories of the soldiers to whom he ministered in Gallipoli."
