Evans, Edward, Storekeeper, etc., Te Kao. Mr. Evans was born at Mangatete in 1873, and has spent the greater part of his life in Awanui. In 1896, he took charge of his father's store at Te Kao, where the gum [gap — reason: illegible]rade alone soon eclipsed the business done by Mr. Evans at his other branch stores.
