About noon, December 3, the Alameda tied up to the<br />

Auckland wharf. Very soon a number <strong>of</strong> representative<br />

members <strong>of</strong> the Auckland church were on board, welcoming the<br />

party to New Zealand. All were invited to the home <strong>of</strong><br />

Brother Edward Hare. During dinner many incidents <strong>of</strong> Elder<br />

Haskell's first visit were related. In the afternoon an<br />

In the evening, in the first Seventh-day Adventist<br />
