"GOLDEN WEDDING"
Mr and Mrs John HOLDAWAY
A very pleasant gathering of friends and relations met at the residence of Mr and Mrs John HOLDAWAY, Dillon's Point, yesterday, to celebrate the occasion of their golden wedding. Mrs HOLDAWAY, at the age of four, arrived in Blenheim direct from England with her parents, the late Mr and Mrs J.S. Kirby. Mr HOLDAWAY was born at Dillon's Point in 1869, and has spent his lifetime there. He has been a successful farmer of the pioneering days, overcoming all the difficulties of floods and droughts and the breaking-in of swamplands. That of course, was the lot of the early settlers, and just how Mr and Mrs HOLDAWAY faced up to those problems is indicated by the very high standard farm which they have to show for their endeavours. It is being carried on now by their son Mr Roy HOLDAWAY.
The family, who were all present for the occasion, are Mr Roy HOLDAWAY, of Blenheim, Mrs Rupert Pike (Hamilton) and Mrs Leslie Way (Wellington). In addition there are nine grandchildren and one great- grand child.
Mr HOLDAWAY's hobby is Maori curios, of which he has a fine collection.
