Mr. James Gunn Cramond

Mr. James Gunn Cramond was born in Stirling, Scotland, in 1844, and arrived in New Zealand when six years of age. He was a blacksmith by trade, and entered business in Dunedin when quite a young man, and established a good connection. In January, 1886, Mr. Cramond was first elected a member of the City Council, for Leith Ward, and was re-elected on two subsequent occasions—in 1888 and 1891. He was also a member of the George Street school committee, and was a man of great integrity and energy. Mr. Cramond died on the 28th of November, 1891, leaving a widow and a family of eight.
