A veteran of the Waikato war,
who is now in his 76th year, >. namely. Mr George Ellis, vented his indignation because someone had “ insulted " him by posting to him anti-military training literature. “I never dreamed,” he said, *’ when I was in the Waikato war that I was fighting to make homes for such a worserish lot. It makes my blood boil to think that there so many who are living under the protection of the British flag, and yet afraid to train for the defence of their homes.”
