GILL On December 12, at Cockle Bay, near Howick, John Gill, aged 67 years.

GILL Another old and highly respectable settler has recently passed away in the person of Mr John Gill, who expired at his late residence, at Cockle Bay, on Thursday last, the 12th inst., at the age of 67. The deceased gentleman was born in the famous Vale of Avoca, in the County of Wicklow, Ireland, where his people were well-known from the prominent position they occupied as a county family. When quite a young man, the subject of these remarks left his native country for Australia, and was for some time engaged in business in and around Adelaide. On the outbreak of the gold fever however, Mr Gill gave up his business and mixed with the excited crowds that flocked to Bendigo and Ballarat, where he worked with varied success as a gold digger. After a few years of this life, he determined to settle in New Zealand. Accordingly about the year 1864 he landed in Auckland, and soon after, with his young wife, settled in the neighbourhood of Howick, where he resided continuously up to the time of his death. During the troubles with the natives in the early sixties Mr Gill joined the Howick Cavalry under the late Captain Maclean, and with his corps rendered valuable service to the colony and gave a feeling of security to the district. During the time the deceased gentleman was in the cavalry he was frequently exposed to the wet and cold, and it is believed he contracted rheumatic gout at that time, to which he was, for over twenty years, a perfect martyr. As a settler, he was, despite his affliction, most energetic and under his guidance a large extent of the wild lands of the district has been brought into cultivation. Generally speaking, he resided on his farm at Pakuranga, but occasionally he lived in a cottage which he built on what is known as Lush's farm, which he purchased some years ago, and which is situate above the beautiful waters of Cockle's Bay, at which place he died as indicated. As a neighbour and settler he was widely known, and universally respected, and this was shown by the very large number of settlers from Auckland and all the settlements around Howick who attended his funeral on Saturday last. Mrs Gill survives her husband, with three sons and three daughters, one of the latter being married to Mr Little, head teacher at the Coromandel school, and one to Mr Keith. Mr Gill was a member of the Howick Episcopalian Church, in the burying ground of which his remains were interred, the ceremony being performed by the Rev Mr Fox. (Died 12th December 1889)

GOODFELLOW A correspondent sends the following further particulars concerning the late Mr William Goodfellow:- "He was the son of a burgess in the busy town of Hawick, and for some years carried on there the bakery business, in which he had succeeded his father. Hawick is in the country of the Border Scotts After reaching Sydney in the barque Palmyra in 1839 Mr Goodfellow at once went on to Wellington. Landing there he got a whare built near the mouth of the Hutt, where all that there was of a town then stood, got his flour ashore, and started baking. But all the level ground there was then exposed to floods, and Mr Goodfellow visited Auckland in 1840 to attend its first land sale. He bought an acre in Queen Street, near where the National Bank now stands, got a house built by the side of the creek that then flowed there, and as soon as possible started business. Trade was slow at first, for population was scarce and money even scarcer. It was, however, but a few years before Heke's war in the North brought Mr Goodfellow a run of luck; for he got contracts for supplying the soldiers with provisions. He carried out these so as to gain the respect of all he came into contact with; and soon after the war was over made arrangements for settling on his farm at Tamaki (now known as St Heliers). He had bought from natives a run of 500 acres at Wairoa South; but Sir George Grey disallowed the transaction; and gave him about 350 acres at Otara. This Mr Goodfellow reclaimed, and added to, and there Mr and Mrs Goodfellow dispensed hospitality for thirty years. Mr Goodfellow was at one time a member of the Provincial Council."
