FIFTY YEARS AGO. IN THE DAYS WHEN OUR PROVINCE WAS YOUNG. TRIALS, TRIBULATIONS, AND ADVENTURES OF A PIONEER. LEAVING HOME AND MERRY ENGLAND. LIFE ON AN EMIGRANT SHIP. STRANGERS IN A STRANGE LAND. HARDSHIPS AND HUMOROUS INCIDENTS. ' A HARD LIFE, BUT A HAPPY ONE. NOTABLE MEN I KNEW. MHE Proprietors of the "STAB," have made arrangments with an Old | Canterbury Pioneer, to publish an account of his experiences from the ' *" time he left England, over fifty years ago, until the present day. The gentleman who is supplying this interesting reading matter, came out to Canterbury when the Province was in its infancy. He has resided here ever since, watching Christchurch grow up out of the tussock, into a splendid , city. He has passed through many adventures in the early days, and these he has related in simple, but graphic, wards. He has also a fund of narratives in respect to those great men who came out to subdue the wilderness, and who laid the foundations of this city and province. . \ The "Pioneer's Story" will be published in the form of a series of Saturday articles, the first of which will appear on SATURDAY NEXT.
