SURREY HILLS ESTATE.

Salo of Allotments by Public Auction,

The sale of tho Surrey Hills Estate com menced at noon to-day in Messrs B. Tonks and Cos. mart. That there was a great deal of public interest centred in the sale was manifested by the attendance, the large mart being crowded to excess. Mr Ti. C. Carr conducted the sale, Tho ordinary conditions of salo having boon read, the auctioneer said the terms were one-fifth cash, the balanco to remain for five years if desired at seven per cent.; the whole or any portion of it being repayable on any quarter day within that time. He added that arrangements might also bo mado for advances towards the erection of buildings on lots sold, which may be repaid by instalments if desired. The interest on such advances would bo at the rate of seven per cent, por annum. The auctioneer then proceeded to expatiate on the advantageous position and general desirability of tho sites for business and residence purposes, and excited some derisive laughter by describing tho estato as the future centre of tho busi ness town outsido Queen - street. A gentleman inquired what por - centago of advance on tho cost of tho land would bo mado for building by the Company. Tlio auctioneer replied that thoy would probably allow four-fifths, but he supposed it would be at least three-fourths. A clause in refer ence to fencing was repeated at tho request of several persons. It was to th_ effect that the vendors wero not to bo held liable by the purchasers for proportion of cost of boundary fence between their properties nnd allotments which may not be sold. Mr Carr added that he was authorised to state that negotiations had beon entered into between the Company and the High way Board for the forming and metalling of the streets, and that they would be formed and metalled when the summer sets in.—A voice: At whose cost?— The auctioneer: At the cost of tho Surrey Hills Estato.—Tho sale then commenced and was continued throughout the day. At times the bidding was very brisk and spirited, but now and again it became dull. Corner and other allotments along the Ponsonby Road frontage wero offered first. That at the i 'unction of Ponsonby Road, Great North toad, and Korangahape Koad, opposite the reservoir, excited great competition, nnd rose from £5 to £30 por foot, at which latter price it was knocked down to Mr D.

SIEGE IN COLLEGE ROAD.

Some excitement has beon occasioned in College Road yesterday and to-day by tho struggles of sundry creditors to obtain pos session of a drapery and millinery establish ment in that thoroughfare, kept by Mr Thomas. It appears that a bailiff was put in yesterday morning by Mr Cohen ; but other creditors believing his bill of sale to bo valueless, put in two other bailiffs, so that tho wholo three aro locked in and bil leted on thoThomas family. Lastovening, Mr Cohen brought four men with tho object of regaining possession, but tho police authori ties, hearing there was likely to be afiacas, also sent two men ovor to prevent any broach of the pence. Matters now remain in statu quo, and as none of the doors have since been opened, the besieging party ore still inside, whilo "the divided force " hold the fort " right gallantly.

MR. FIRTH : A BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH.

(To the Editor.)

Sin, —In a recent issue of your paper, refer ence was mado to tho exertions of Mr J. C. Firth iv clearing tho Thames River and in opening up tho Te Aroha district, and his vigorous and successful efforts were very properly extolled by your special correspon dent, who was then visiting the goldhold in tnat district.

It may bo interesting to Auoklanl readers to know that Mr Firth's father was a well known Independent minister and a vory successful schoolmaster. This gen tleman was born in tlio neighbourhood of Onkinshaw, an ancient Saxon villnge in Yorkshire, whoro his ancestors had lived from a vory romoto period. Thoy woro of the sturdy English yeoman class, doing littlo moro than cultivating their farms in the hum-drum stylo of tho olden times.

Tho namo reveals a Saxon origin. Such names as Ethelfrith, Ecqfrith, Enldfrith, Willfrith, occuring as oariy as tho seventh century ns chieftains and scholars in tho Northumbrian Saxon history.

Aftor tlio Norman Conquest, under tho iron rule of feudalism, tho sturdy Saxons sottled down into " viloins," or tillers of tlio soil, coming forward no moro as makers of history, excopt that thoy formed tho rank and filo of a hundred battlo-fiolds.

One of them, named John Frith, or Firth, studied nt Oxford and Cambridgo, and assisted his friend, William Tyndnl, in tho translation of tho English Biblo, and fell a martyr to the liorco intolerance of tho times, boing burnt at tho stako in Smith field.

Beyond nppouring now • nnd thon in old parish records, nothing much is rocordod of tho Firths. They seem, liko the rest of tho common peoplo, to have sottled down into sturdy English yeomen, tilling tho land, as I havo said, in tho usual fashion.

Tho subjoct of this skotch passed his early days on his fathor's farm. Fond of sports of ovory description, not deluding cockfighting, ho led tho gay, roystoring lifo common to young follows sevottty years ago. Ho oxcelled in all tho rough athletic games of tho times. Ono day, as ho was riding a raco bareback, his horso throw him. This event changed tho wholo courso of his lifo. Though not seriously injured, ho could no longor tako tho lend in tho rough wild sports of his follows. With characteristic ardour ho do voted himsolf to tho acquisition of learning, Ho spent bis days and nights in taking lessons from all tho villngo schoolmasters within a wide circuit of his homo, until ho had acquired all tho knowledge thoy could toach.

About this timo, boing ono day in a stono quarry with an acquaintance, tho conver sation turned on religious mattors, when a largo stono tumbled down tho sido of tho quarry, from which ho narrowly escaped, Thoro was a "sormon" in that stono which had a salutary effect upon tho young scholar.

From that hour, Mr Firth becamo tho subjoct of deep religious impressions. Ho continued his studies undor nn eminent Independent minister of tho neighbourhood, and ovoutually bocamo n polished scholar both in mathematics, Latin, and Greek, besides being ono of the best penmen of tho day. Ho was a good speaker, and an excellent writer of nervous Saxon English. Mr Firth engaged in tuition, nnd opened tho village school at Wyko, an ancient vil lage in Yorkshire, with such success that that his pupils rapidly roso to 150. In 1822 ho commenced preaching .on Sunday ovonings in tho village school. The congregation soon became so numerous that he was led, with others, to consider tho pro priety of erecting a chapel. The good work was successfully accomplished, Mr Firth being tho chief contributor, and tho placo was opened with much rejoicing, Mr Firth composing the hymns for the occa sion. _ He becamo tho first minister, and preached without salary for tho long period of 26 years, besides conducting his school with signal success, many of his pupils attaining eminent positions in literary and mercantilo pursuits in various parts of tho world. Sprung from tho common people, ho was eminently a man of tho people. In politics ho wns an advanced Liberal, and took a very active part in the agitation which led to tho passing of tho Reform Bill in 1832. His contributions to the press and his pamphlets on political questions wero very popular, and exerted no little influenco in the west riding of Yorkshire, whore tho hardest battles for reform wero fought and won. The Tory magnates of tho neighbourhood scornfully callod him tho learned plebeian, but tho common poople heard him gladly. Subsequently ho took an activo part, as a member of the Anti-Corn Law League, in tho agitation which led to tho repeal of tho Corn Laws. In social questions he took an equally active part, delivering and publish ing lectures in the cause of temporanco, etc. He was a eouragoous dofender of the oppressed, who novor appealed to him in vain, and ho was in a very real senso tho friend of tho poor. The last years of his life wero clouded by tho breaking of a bank, which, with other unfortunate circumstances, resulted in tho loss of his life's savings. But ho was a brave man and a true Christian, and though the loss of his property lessened in some measure his power for good, Ins gonial sympathy for othors novor failed, and ho was as ardent as before in evory good In 1853 ho died, literally in harness. Ho was a polishod scholar, an ablo preachor, and a good man ; and the amount of good done through his instrumentality in many Yorkshire villages and towns will probably never be known in this world, though many now living can bear willing testimony to tho fruits of bis labours. ' \ Such was the father of Auckland s J. .. Firth—in every .sense nn honourable and worthy man.—Yours, &c, J Gleaner.
