FRIENDLY SOCIETIES. GENERAL STATISTICS FOR 1882.

1883. NEW ZEALAND.

FRIENDLY SOCIETIES. GENERAL STATISTICS FOR 1882.

Presented to both Houses of the General Assembly by Command of His Excellency. The subjoined table of statistics is compiled from such returns as have been received from the various friendly societies in New Zealand, in due compliance with the Act. Although the value of statistical information depends rather upon its completeness, yet, as the interest attaching to such information is undoubtedly in part derived from its early publication, it has been deemed advisable to issue a table embodying the chief features in the operations of the friendly societies of the colony during the year 1882. As, however, some returns for the year are still outstanding, and as also inaccuracies exist in some of those which have been sent in, the further compilation of full and reliable information will be necessary for the purpose of exact comparison with former issues. The number of lodges, &c, included in this table is 268. Eeturns are still wanting from 32, and one return has been made out so imperfectly as to be valueless. The total, therefore, of an order or district does not necessarily include all the lodges of such order or district, but is a total only of the lodges included in this table. Wm. E. B. Beown, Begistrar-General's Office, Begistrar of Friendly Societies. Wellington, 29th August, 1883.
