REGISTER OF MEDICAL PRACTITIONERS—continued.

I certify that the above is a true copy of the names, qualifications, and residences* of all persons registered under “The Medical Practitioners Registration Act, 1869,” as recorded in the Medical Register-book kept in this office.

E. J. VON DADELSZEN,
Registrar-General.

Registrar-General’s Office,
Wellington, 31st December, 1898.

• It may be that in some instances the places given under the heading “Residence” are not the present places of abode of the respective persons. They have been copied, however, as they stand in the General Register; and if they are inaccurate in any case it is because the changes of residence have not been officially notified to the Registrar-General, as it is obviously desirable that all such changes should be.—E. J. v. D.

These sections comprise rough pastoral country covered with timber, principally of tawa, tawhero, matai, miro, konini, mahoe, and the usual undergrowth. There is a small quantity of rimu, matai, and kahikatea in the valleys. The hills rise from 600 ft. to 900 ft. above the valleys. A large portion of the forest on Section 15 has been destroyed by fire, but the second growth of scrub is high and thick. The formation is papa, and is well watered. Access to the sections in Block XI., and to Section 2, Block XV., is by Mauku Road; distant about three miles from the main road, and about thirty-two miles from Strathmore Township. Access to all other sections (save Section 6, Block XIV.) is by Putikituna Road, which branches from Ohura Road to the Tangarakau River, a distance of eight miles and a half, the bush being felled and road cleared to the river. A bridle-road, 8 ft. wide, is formed six miles and a half from Ohura Road. Access is also gained by canoe up the Whanganui and Tangarakau Rivers; distance from Strathmore, about thirty-five miles.
