Gisborne

The annual social in aid of St. Dominic's school funds was held in His Majesty's Theatre, Gisborne, on August-4, and like its predecessors (says a local paper) proved a very great success. Among those present at the function were Fathers Lane and Dignan. Much regret was expressed at the non-attendance, through indisposition, of Mrs. E. Williams, hon. secretary, who had worked so hard in the arranging of all the necessary preliminaries. The members of the committee, who deserve every praise for the success of the social, were Misses Neill, Haughey, and Duggan, and Mesdames Hennessy, Williams, Rossbotham, Elwood, Doolan, J. H. Martin, Blair, Webb, Finn, and Doyle. A most acceptable supper was provided by the ladies. It -is understood that the function financially was an even greater success than most people ■ predicted, and the school fund will benefit considerably as a result thereof.
