(From our own correspondent.) February 24. Rev. Father Gogg a n, whio has been in charge of the Parish for the last two years, left on Thursday last for Napier. Before his departure he was given several presentations. * -

The new pastor of Temuka (Yen Archpriest Le -Menant des Ohesnais) and his" assistant priest, the RevFather Mac Donald, arrived here on Friday. An effort is being made to erect a suitable memorial to the late Rev. Father Fauvel, who la/bored so .long and devotedly, and spent the best years of his life here. The Rev. Father Kerley, who has been on a holiday to Australia, returned to Temulia on Saturday. He is, I regret to say, not to stay, as he has been transferred to Timaru. Before his departure, the Rev. Father Goggan made the pleasant announcement that the parish Was entirely free of debt. During his time here a presbytery wasb,u o,^ d the ' grounds were improved, altogether a sum of £1450 was collected and expended.
