Mr. David Clark, one of the oldest settlers at Pahautanui, died there last week. The deceased, who was 78 years of age; was born at Greenock, and went out to Australia in the ship Glenbirvie in 1836. After a short stay in Sydney and Hobart he returned to London and then went back to New South Wales. He again returned to the Old Country, and on the 7th March, 1840, he took up his residence at Petone. After spending a few years at the whaling trade in New Zealand waters he settled at Pahautanui and spent the remainder of his life there. He leaves a daughter, ten grandchildren, and eighteen great-grandchildren.

For two hundred and sixteen years, the sailing ships chased whales into the boundary of Kapiti. In the ten years between 1830 - 1840, the legend of the Captain of the Brig "Tranmere" of Sydney.
The quotation is taken from the book, page 5 paragraph 2.
"In March R Campbell and Co. purchased the Brig "Hind" and fitted her out for Black Whale fishery. On 26th April Bell and Farmer sent the "William Stoveld" on a whaling cruise to New Zealand. The "Hind" followed on 4th May."
(The following was what was contained in the quotation that Julie found)
"When the Brig "Tranmere" arrived on 24th June 1830, with a cargo of Flax from Kapiti, Captain Smith reported that the "William Stoveld" and the "Hind" were busy whaling there and that the former had 25 tuns of oil on board and the latter 16 with a whale alongside".

HOBART TOWN POLICE REPORT.
Wednesday, January 17.
Thirteen seamen of the Glenbervie were charged with refusing to do their work on board the ship. They appeared to have been dissatisfied with their treatment, and urged on by one of the carpenters of the ship. It was satisfactorily proved that they had one pound and a-half of good fresh beef, soup, vegetables, and plenty of biscuit, coffee, &c per day- not contented with this, they wanted two pounds of beef per day.

The Glenbervie has hauled to the eastside of the Cove, to finish her loading for London.
The Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser Tuesday 7 Feb1839
DESERTION.OF SEAMEN.--The barque Glenbervie lay all Monday in Watson's Bay, not being able to proceed to sea, from a considerable deficiency in the complement of her crew. It appeared that she wanted eight or nine additional seamen, but could not get them, except on the most unreasonable terms that could well be supposed. The men shipped got 4/. per month, but those who stood out had the impudence to ask the moiety only of 35/. for the run home!
There's cheek for you! Now those vagabonds that abandon their ships in this port, leave England under signed articles for the passage out and home, at the rate of 2/ 10s. per month; but when they come here, and find sailors getting higher wages, they bolt when it suits their convenience, and conceal themselves. about the hocks, until the ship has sailed : they then make their appearance, and by the desertion of some other ship's crew, they step into employment at the Sydney late of wages. They say, " It is nothing but right that we should get the same rate of wages as the unemployed seamen of the port are getting, and if we don't get it by consent, without leaving our ship, we'll run the risk of desertion, and stick out for it like the rest " This is all very good logic for a sailor, and is no doubt sufficient to satisfy his conscience in such a case as this; but seamen ought to remember that they are in this way breaking faith with their employers, and dishonourably violating the law, If they must have the wages that are going out of any port, they should have that entered in their articles before shipping from England; but this their employers would not be likely to do, as at home there is no lack of seamen in every port. Besides, such an arrangement would only be tolerating and recognising as fair, the means which seamen have recourse to, in order to create high wages in such ports as Sydney, which was originally, and is still effected by violating their contracts and abandoning their ships. This practice ot desertion should be punishable by the severest corporeal penalties; and the most vigilant, prompt, and effectual agency or police should be got up expressly for the purpose.of putting it down.

The following list, published in the Evening Post, constitutes the Old Identities who mustered on this occasion:
Our Pioneers' Muster Roll.
It would be an exceedingly interesting feature in connection with such an historical event as that of yesterday to place on record the names of all the early settlers who were present. We have gone to considerable trouble to compile a list of those who were in the procession, but from the circumstances it is quite possible that some have been omitted. So far as we have been able to learn, however, the particulars that we now append are full and correct, but if any of our readers can furnish the names of any pioneers who have been overlooked, we shall be glad to complete the list later on.

Obituary
Another old pioneer, and a highly respected Pahautanui farmer, Mr William Harris, died on Friday last and was buried at Pahautanui on Sunday, the Rev Mr Swainsn officiating a the Anglican Church and at the graveside. The large attendance at the funeral was eloquent of the esteem in which the late Mr Harris was held. Practically every family in the district was represented, and many came long distances. Mr. Harris arrived in New Zealand with his parents, the late Mr. and mrs. David Harris, in 1842, when three years of age, in the ship George Fife. The family first resided on the old Porirua Road, near what is now known as Khandallah, and in 1853 took up farm land in Pahautanui, where the parents died, each at the age of over eighty years. The original family of four boys and four daughters, one having died on the way out, was reared at Pahautanui, and many descendants still have their homes there. The late Mr. Harris had a wonderful fund of information as to the early days and doings of the Wellington District, and his excellent memory and keen sense of humour made him a most interesting raconteur to many who took pleasure in visiting him, including members of the Early Settlers' Association. He married Miss Caroline Clark, and reared a family of five boys and five girls, of whom nine are still living - James and Mrs D. Carter, at Pahiatua; Thomas John Stephen and Mesdames Stephen and Thomas Jones at Pahautanui; George, at Eketahuna; David, at Albany, Auckland; Mrs David Gardner, at Whakatane; and Mrs Andrew Anderson, at Te Kuiti. A grandson, Mr Edward Clyde Harris, lives at Pahautanui. Two brothers, Messrs Henry and David Harris, still live on the old family property at Pahautanui, and two sisters, Mesdames Gilchrist and Spicer are residents of Palmerston North. Mr Harris had almost reached his ninetieth year and would probably have lived some years longer but for an accident which entailed his removal to te Wellington Hospital, where he died. Of him it may truthfully be said that he died full of years and good works.

A few minutes before 6 o'clock yesterday morning the City Ambulance received a call to a farmer, William Harris, aged 89, residing with his relatives near Pahautanui, who had received injuries to his spine when he fell while crossing a room. The ambulances brought the injured man to Wellington, and he was admitted to the Public Hospital at 8:45 p.m.
