Rawiri Evelyn Kinross Wood, (1894-3/9/1920). "considerable anxiety"

We regret to state that the health of Mr Rawiri Wood, only son of Mt and Mrs G. W. Wood, Balclutha, is such as to cause his relatives and friends considerable anxiety. Mr Wood was compelled to resign from a responsible position in the teaching profession several months ago owing to ill-health.  -Clutha Leader, 30/7/1920.


MEN'S SOCIAL CLUB (excerpt)

Prior to supper the president referred to the death that evening of Mr Rawiri Wood, and it was resolved that the secretary write to the bereaved parents conveying the sympathy of both clubs in their sad bereavement, the company standing for a moment in silence in token of respect. Further games and items were provided after supper, and a very enjoyable evening concluded with a dance, Messrs Clinch and Burk relieving one another at the piano.   -Clutha Leader, 3/9/1920.
