Rakaia — Mr. George Duncan Cameron,

Rakaia.

Mr. George Duncan Cameron, Stationmaster and Postmaster at Rakaia, was born in Invercargill, in 1864, and is the eldest son of the late Mr. Robert Cameron, a notice of whom appears in the Southland division of the Otago and Southland volume of this Cyclopedia. Mr. Cameron was educated at Winton, and entered the railway service in 1877, as cadet a Waipahi. Then he was stationmaster at Dipon, Makarewa, Otautau, Kingston, Riversdale, and Sawyer's Bay successively, and was transferred to Rakaia in 1900. He has been a member of the Railway Officers' Institute since its formation.
