Duncan (Huntervjlle) arc leaving on July 25 by the New Zealand Star, which is due In Auckland on August 26, states a London correspondent writing on July 20. Last, week-end Air Duncan went to Leicestershire to stay with Sir Arthur Curtis, who has a shooting box there. The Duke of Gloucester also was there as a guest, and some good shooting was enjoyed. Air Duncan was much pleased not only to meet the Duke again in his own country, but also to se© the horse Silent Bill, which now belongs to His Royal Highness, flourishing and happy in his new quarters. The Duke will probably use Silent Bill as a hunter during the winter, and there is every prospect that he will win races at point-to-point meetings. New Zealanders will perhaps best remember Sir Arthur Curtis as Captain Curtis, formerly private secretary to Earl Jellicoe at Government House. Air Duncan had a good opportunity to see much of the English countryside during his stay.
