Valedictory Social at Tuakau

A large and representative gathering of the parishioners of Tuakau and surrounding districts met on April 17 to bid farewell to Rev. Father O'Brien, who has for the last four years been in charge of the Tuakau parish. During a very enjoyable social and musical evening, a presentation of a wallet, well filled with notes, was made to the departing priest by Rev. Father G. Kelly, on behalf of his many friends and well-wishers. The recipient, in a neat speech, replied to the several addresses,, voicing the goodwill that existed at all times between the parishioners and himself. After supper was partaken of, the evening concluded with musical honors and cheers for the departing guest.
