(From, our own correspondent.) Mr. B. Moriarty, who has made such a success of the great church now being erected here, last week entered into partnership with Mr. T. Y. Lusk, A.R.1.8.A. The 1 imam Herald in commenting on the new firm says: 4 Mr. Lusk, who has had extensive Home and Dominion experience, is, an associate of the Institute of British Architects, and is thoroughly in touch with all branches of his profession. Air. Moriarty is well known to South Canterbury as a building surveyor. Under his care the Canterbury Farmers’ magnificent buildings were erected, and his experience as the superintendent for the new Catholic church now nearing completion, has given him a thorough knowledge of the handling of large buildings. lie has had a varied experience, being in charge of work at, among many others, St. Mary’s final additions, Asisembly Rooms additions, Dalgety’s additions, Hay’s Buildmgs and a large number of private dwellings, one of which, Craigmore, deserves special mention. The additions to the Catholic Girls’ School, which have come in for so much favorable comment, were designed and executed by him. The new firm, by their joint personnel, are prepared to design and construct any class of building to the wishes of clients.’ ' Mr. Moriarty, whose capabilities as a building surveyor are widely recognised, is to be congratulated on this further step in his profession. >
