MRS KATERINA RANGIKAWHITI PITT With the death last November of Katerina Rangikawhiti Pitt, the Maori community at Gisborne lost one of its most noted identities, and the district as a whole a personality of wide influence. Born at Poroporo 69 years ago, Mrs Pitt was a member of an Arawa family, her maiden name being Rodgers. As a girl she showed great musical talent, and in her youth she studied singing in Sydney for some years. She was later a well-known concert artist. She was married to Mr Wiremu Tutepuaki Pitt shortly before World War I.
