CHRISTENING NICOLA MARY WILLIAMS.
A Hawke’s Bay Gathering.
By the Hawke’s Bay Correspondent of the “New Zealand Free Lance.”
MR. and Mrs. David Williams’ baby wore a lovely robe (which had belonged to the Empson family for 70 years) when she was christened Nicola Mary at the Omakere Church on December 17. The babe’s mother was well-known in the south as Miss Josephine Elworthy, and now she lives at Waipawa, Hawke’s Bay. Many old friends and relatives motored back to Ngahere for afternoon tea and christening cake, and many congratulations and good wishes were heard at the very happy gathering. Some of the guests were Mrs. Empson, Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Williams, Mr. and Mrs. Pat White, Mr. and Mrs. Forbes McHardy, Mr. and Mrs. George Williams, Mrs. Douglas Williams, Mr. and Mrs. Percy McHardy, Mrs. Berthon Williams and Miss Rosemary Williams, the Rev. and Mrs. Hall, Mr. Alan Williams, Miss Nita McHardy, Miss Dinah Williams, Mrs. Bertie Faulkner (Gisborne), Mr. Stephen Williams, Mr. David Ritchie.
