WOMEN IN
PRINT.
Mention is made in the Southern papers of the death of Mrs. J. H. #Davison, of St. Leonard’s, #Culverden, a very well-known and highly respected old resident of North #Canterbury. The late Mrs. Davison was a daughter of the late Mr. George Andrew Oliver, of Hawkes Bay, and was born in 1857. Her marriage took place in 1881, when she took up her residence at St. Leonard’s, and has remained ever since. Mrs. Davison leaves a great many attached friends both in the #Amuri and in other parts of the Dominion. During the war her activities were unceasing, and the death of one of her sons (Mr. F. Davison), who was killed in action, was a blow from which she really never recovered. Mrs. Davison is survived by her husband (Mr. J. H. Davison), who has been in the district for over sixty years, and has held a number of public positions. There are three surviving sons, Messrs. E. B. Davison, L. H. Davison, and J. W. Davison, all of Amuri; also four daughters, Mesdames E. F. W. Lascelles (who is residing in India), H. G. Martin, A. Cole, and Miss E. H. Davison.
