The Very Rev. J. G. Laughton Fifty Years of Service To The Maori People the very rev. j. g. laughton, who for 50 years has worked among the Maori people as missionary and teacher, this year celebrated the golden anniversary of his ordination as a missionary of the New Zealand Presbyterian Church. Most of this time has been spent with the Tuhoe people of the Urewera Country, among whom Hoani Rotene (to give Mr Laughton his Maori name) is regarded as one of the most honoured of elders. Last July the Tuhoe people of Rotorua marked the occasion of his anniversary with a special service held at the Mataatua marae, Rotorua, when Mr Laughton was presented with gifts for use in his ministry.
