Te Horo

Very great regret is felt throughout the Te Horo district at the projected departure of Miss Prendeville, assistant at the Te Jloro school for a- number of years. Miss Prendeville is held in the highest esteem by parents and children alike, and will be much missed from Te Horo. On Sunday morning, after Mass at Te Horo, Rev. Father Mein, on behalf of the Catholics of Te Horo, presented Miss Nellie Chicken with a silver crucifix and set, and a prayer-book. He spoke of . the good Miss Glacken bad done both as a Sunday school teacher and organist. Mr. Geo. Glacken returned thanks for his sister. Advantage was taken of the Hautere Rifle Club’s annual social, at Te Horo, to make a presentation to Mr. Geo. Glacken, who has filled the position of secretary to the club with great credit for some years past, and has also been the champion shot of the club on more than one occasion. President G. P. Catley, who made the presentation, said that it was only fit that they should make this slight recognition of Mr. Glacken’s most valuable services to the club, on the eve of his departure from that part of the district. Mr. Glacken had been a most efficient and courteous secretary, moreover he was the champion shot of thejclub, a most consistent shot, and a zealous member in every way. He asked Mr. Glackeu’s acceptance of a very handsome and valuable dressing-case, suitably inscribed, as ‘ a memento of his connection with the club. Mr. Glacken made a fitting speech in reply.
