The Township of Palmerston is situated at the entrance of the Waikouaiti Valley, in the neighbourhood of Puketapu, about 35 miles from Dunedin, 40 from Oamaru, and 8 from Waikouaiti. There is a good supply of Timber in the neighbourhood, and Coal is obtainable at Vulcan Point, a distance of 6 miles. The town is intersected by the main road to the Dunstan diggings from Waikouaiti, and is situated in one of the finest agricultural districts in this Province. Limestone of a superior quality to any hitherto obtained, has lately been discovered. From its situation at the junction of the main North and South roads, with the road to the interior and the diggings; it is believed that Palmerston will become the centre of traffic, and is destined to be one of the chief inland towns of Otago.
