Highland Units
Evidence of the interest of Great Britain in New Zealand’s Scottish activities is contained in a recent issue of the London Sunday Mail on the proposed formation of Highland Territorial units in New Zealand, says the Evening Star, Dunedin. The report, although brief, is well displayed, and surmises that Colonel L. D. Henderson, ex-Scafonth Highlanders, and officer commanding the London Scottish, Scotland’s crack London regiment, who is expected in New Zealand shortly, is connected with the scheme. The promoters of the movement, which originated in Dunedin, have not neard of Colonel Henderson, but any assistance he could render they would welcome.
