GAZETTE.

Each person who fails to get the ‘Gazette’ regularly, will please send at once to the undersigned the name of the Post Office to which the ‘Gazette’ should be sent, as it is believed that in most cases the neglect to put the Post Office after the name and address of the person is the main cause why the ‘Gazette’ does not reach its destination sometimes.

JOHN LOGAN,
Superintendent’s Office, Dunedin,
3rd December, 1872.
