Crothers, William , Farmer and Stock Dealer, “Ataahua,” Weston. This settler was born in Tasmania, in 1885, and was educated in that colony and in New Zealand. He was brought up to country life, and settled on the Ardgowan estate in 1896, when he drew a section of forty acres, under a lease in perpetuity. Mr. Crothers' property is close to the main road, and his homestead is both convenient and attractive. Mr. Crothers is a member of the North Otago Agricultural and Pastoral Society, and, as a stock dealer, he does a considerable business in North Otago. As a Forester, he is attached to Court Pride of Oamaru.
