Photographed holding the head of the deer is the uncle of Mr H. Houkamau, Hicks Bay, who shot the animal.

The young stag which was shot only two hundred yards from the fence near the main road had evidently come down from the bush and lost its way.

Could it be that this pest is on the march?

They are Messrs Bert Lewis (engineer), Harry Codgrave (shipwright), I. J. Quigley (manager), Alec Thompson (ship's master) and Don McLeod (launch master).

All are retired members of the Lightering Company staff except Mr Thompson, who still captains the lighter Kaiwaka.

Holding up his catch for our inspection is the young fisherman, Chris Flood, who caught the barracuda.
