236 1947: OBITUARY - MR DAVID AUSTIN DONALD - PASSING OF PUKEATUA PIONEER. In the passing of the late Mr David Austin Donald, Pukeatua loses one another link with the early days of settlement in this district. Mr Donald died at an early hour at the Waikato Hospital, after a short illness on Monday July 28th. Born in Dunedin seventy years ago, of Scottish parents, Mr Donald came to Pukeatua in or about the year 1909 after the district was thrown open for closer settlement and has lived on his farm until illness necessitated his entry into hospital. Besides farming, Mr Donald engaged in road contracting, having metalled a considerable part of the Pukeatua-Arapuni road. He also did road formation work at Arapuni in the early days of the construction of the Arapuni dam. He married Miss May Carter, also of Dunedin. Their only son Jim was killed in Italy. He is survived by his widow and daughter, Mrs J Voltz (Gwenda) and four granddaughters. The late Mr Donald was always noted for his sincerity and intense honesty and although of a most conservative and retiring nature, was a valued friend to all who had the privilege of knowing him intimately.

About a fortnight ago, he accidentally slipped and fell on a broken glass bottle, cutting his arm rather severely, a small piece being taken clean out, and one of the muscles slightly wounded. The cut was dressed, and he complained of but little pain, going about his work as usual. On Tuesday last, he complained of sore throat, and fancied he had caught cold. He became rapidly worse, however, and had to take to his bed, frequent spasms, apparently of a tetanic nature, setting in. Yesterday morning unmistakable symptoms of traumatic tetanus appeared, and in the afternoon he succumbed to its effects. Dr. Harding who was in constant attendance did all that was possible to relieve his sufferings, but without avail. The deceased was about forty-five years of age. He came from Nelson a year or two ago, and has relatives at that place and in Marlborough. He leaves a widow and five children, we regret to learn none too well provided for. [Evening Post 30 June 1877] Speed, John Petrie Wine & Spirit merchant in Nelson, Hotel-keeper in Motueka, arrived in NZ c 1862 (I12)
