Emigrated: | 4 Feb 1883 | left Plymouth, England (from Ireland) to NZ on the 'Waipa' arriving at Lyttelton, Canterbury, NZ on 17 May 1883 |
Passenger list: William Donoghue, age 21, labourer, Kerry. William was nominated by his brother John ("Canterbury #536, Mr John Donoghue, St Andrews") and went to join John at Upper Otaio. Star 17 May 1883: ARRIVAL OF THE WAIPA. The New Zealand Shipping Company's immigrant ship Waipa, 1017 tons, Captain J. M. Baxter, arrived off Lyttelton yesterday, and was towed by the tug Lyttelton to a berth off Ripa Island. She brings 220 immigrants, principally nominated by their friends, and they arrived in splendid health and spirits under the charge of Dr Gibson, who is an adept at the business. The voyage was a long one of 109 days. The Waipa left the dock on Jan. 28, and with the exception of a nine days' gale at the commencement of the voyage, the passage has been a pleasant one. The immigrants will be landed today, and the ship will probably be berthed to-morrow. Press 18 May 1883: THE WAIPA. After an eminently successful passage the ship Waipa, of the New Zealand Shipping Company's fleet, arrived in command of Captain Baxter on Wednesday night, from London via Plymouth. She brought 221 immigrants, under the medical care of Dr. Gibson, whose name will be familiar to many friends in Canterbury. The Waipa left Plymouth on February 2nd, and fell in with the heavy weather that dismasted the ship Oxford, particulars of which have appeared in print. For nine days, from February 5th to 14th, it blew a continuous gale, an unfortunate introduction to a three months’ passage for those unaccustomed to "going down to the sea in ships." The health of the passengers remained fairly good, however, and the fine weather which succeeded the storms, and which continued almost uninterruptedly to the finish of the passage, more than made up for the first disadvantages and objectionable experiences. The immigrants included 130 single women of a superior class, fourteen families, included in which were twenty-five children and thirty-two single men [including of course William O’Donoghue]. The matron, who was appointed by Dr Gibson, proved to be admirably fitted for the position, and gave every possible satisfaction. A few cases (six) of measles occurred, the last on the 6th of April, and with this exception the health of all on board was excellent. Letters were sent Home by the barque Runnymede, spoken on the passage out. The doctor reports that the contract for diet and medical stores was, liberally carried out and every consideration for the comfort and well being of the immigrants was shown by the Company. The ship on her arrival was the admiration of everyone who visited her. The several compartments were perfect pictures of cleanliness. The places reminded one more of the military order of things than aboard an emigrant ship as such is commonly depicted, so scrupulously regular was everything visible— bedding, food utensils, and so forth. When the official business had been got through with, and Mr March, the Immigration officer, had completed his arrangements for landing the passengers yesterday afternoon, the Rev. Mr Long, Church of England minister, lately appointed to visit the shipping in the Port, addressed a few words of welcome, encouragement, and advice to the new arrivals. The report of the passage as follows was courteously supplied by Captain Baxter: - Left the Docks January 28th, 1883, in tow for Plymouth, which port owing to the extremely bad weather, was not reached February 1st. Embarked passengers the following day. Left Plymouth Sunday, February 4th, with a moderate head wind… [plenty more detail follows in newspaper report]. | ||

Event: | Aug 1911 | Fr Tubman\'s Jubilee |
New Zealand Tablet 31 August 1911: REV. FATHER TUBMAN’S SILVER JUBILEE - (From our Timaru correspondent.) On Tuesday evening last the Catholics of St. Andrews, an outlying part of the Timaru parish, about twelve miles south of Timaru, assembled in the public hall to celebrate. the silver jubilee of their popular and esteemed pastor, the Rev. Father Tubman. The proceedings took the nature of a social, progressive euchre and a musical programme occupying part of the time. Among the audience were many of the early pioneers, who had received the Rev. Father on his first and pioneer visit to the district twenty years ago. Some of those early settlers whose hearty hand shake greeted the Rev. Father last night were Messrs. P. Kennedy, J. O\'Connor, W. O\'DONOGHUE, and Sullivan. Mr. D. Callaghan ably presided, and read the following address: \'Reverend . and dear Father, we the Catholics of St. Andrews district have assembled here this evening to tender you our warmest felicitations, on this, the occasion of your silver jubilee. We should indeed be thoughtless, aye ungrateful, were we not to embrace, this opportunity of manifesting to you our appreciation for your untiring care and attention to us during the twenty years that you are ministering in this parish. The interest you have taken in each of us and the solicitude you have displayed for all have endeared you to every member of your flock. By your suavity of manner and tenderness of heart you have not only obtained the affection of your own congregation, but you have also won the regard and the esteem of all classes and creeds. We admire you not only for your zeal in our spiritual interests, but we also recognise : your eminent administrative ability. During your pastorate you have not only built and furnished our beautiful church in St. Andrews, but you have now achieved the crowning act of your life by erecting in Timaru that grand magnificent temple that is an ornament to the town and which always will be the pride and glory of Catholics not only in South Canterbury, but, throughout the whole Dominion. As a small token of gratitude for your great work in our behalf we beg you to accept this purse, of sovereigns accompanied with the wish that God will spare you to us for many years to come. Signed on behalf of the parishioners: D. Callaghan, J. . o‘Loughlin, P. Kennedy, C. Lysaght, Martin Sullivan, P. Ryan.’ He then handed to Rev. Father Tubman the address, beautifully illuminated and framed, and with it a substantial purse of sovereigns. Rev. Father Tubman, who was received with enthusiasm, and whose remarks were frequently applauded, sincerely thanked them for their beautiful address, and the substantial token of their goodwill which had accompanied it. He did not possess the qualities they gave him credit for, but he would wish to be the man they thought he was. He had now been twenty years laboring in that parish, and he was just twenty-five years a priest. He had been five years a professor before coming to the Timaru-St. Andrews parish, which was his first one. When he came to St. Andrews Messrs. M. Kennedy and W. O\'DONOGHUE and a few others were about the only married folks belonging to the new congregation. Many excellent parish priests had guided them during his time as curate, Fathers Aubry, Foley, Hurlin, and Lewis—and a great number of assistants had helped in the work, but none of the latter did more useful work than Fathers Murphy and Smyth, who were present with them that evening. The St. Andrews congregation was a loyal one to their Church. Indeed, the St. Andrews people did great service for the Timaru church; for instance the bazaar lately held by them realised for the Timaru church just about £7OO, a record for such an effort. The Timaru church had many notable benefactors, some notable recent ones being Messrs. Terence McPhee and J. Fahey. Some of the success that had attended the erection of the building was undoubtedly due to the energy, tact, and capabilities of Mr. Moriarty, and to him a great saving was due in all directions. He desired to particularly mention the members of the church committee, especially Mr. O\'Connor, the first chairman for the great work done. Mr. O\'Connor was now succeeded in that office by Mr. D. Callaghan, a capable and trustworthy successor. He concluded by thanking them most sincerely for Che handsome presents, and sat down amidst applause. The Rev. Father Smyth said that the celebration of Father Tubman\'s silver jubilee was a popular event in St. Andrews. Never was a cause more heartily taken up, and in fact the people had looked upon it as a great family event. _ Mr. O\'Connor said that everything done in the parish was due to the good guidance of the Rev. Father Tubman, assisted by the generosity of the people. Father Tubman was now known as a church builder. He had guided the present rising generation, and the prosperity of the Church in the district was due to the zeal, self-sacrifice, and foresight of the Rev. Father Tubman. He concluded a telling speech by wishing Father Tubman a long and useful life,\" and \"hoped he would be present at his diamond. jubilee. The refreshments provided by the ladies of the parish were on a generous scale, and were much appreciated. Among those present during the evening were Rev. Fathers Fay (Temuka), Smyth and Murphy (Timaru) | ||

Interests: | 1922 | Travel to Ireland |
Timaru Herald 7 Nov 1922: IRELAND AS SHE IS. A TIMELY INTERVIEW. Mr W. O’Donoghue, formerly of St. Andrews and more recently of Timaru, left here seven months ago for a trip to the Old Country, and. returned last week. He speaks very interestingly of his travels abroad, and recounts some very pleasant incidents which will be memorable to him for his lifetime, of his visit to the Far East, and through Southern and Western Europe. On his return journey he went to parts of Australia and altogether had a delightful tour. He spent some portion of his trip in England; travelling as far as the Midlands and in conversation with a Herald reporter he was asked his view on the present industrial position. He said he was astonished at the amount of labour troubles that are met with in the Old Land, and in every park in London almost every day of the week, more particularly on Sundays, stump orators were up talking a brand of socialism which verged on as if it were not Bolshevism itself. He heard expressions used such as would not be tolerated in any other portion of the British Empire and he was amazed at the support which was even given to these Bolshevistic principles. The country was slowly recovering from the aftermath of the war and he found that whilst money was plentiful, the people had not the confidence necessary to devote this money into business expansions. There was no doubt that the day of the Coalition Government was gone, and he would be very much surprised if Lloyd George would again head the Government of Great Britain. Mr O’Donoghue then discussed the Irish situation. He said that on landing in Dublin he expected to see a joyous people with the worst of their troubles over, and all setting themselves contentedly to face a bright future for his homeland. Militarism, he thought, would be absent, but judge of his surprise when he found that Dublin was really an armed city, held at the time he landed, by the Republican forces, with the Central Free State Government practically non-existent through their Regular troops being confined to barracks, and the Republicans flauntingly parading the streets. The Irish Free State troops were concentrated mostly at Beggar’s Bush and the Republicans had set their headquarters up in some of the main buildings of the city. The people were between two opposite forces and were in a position almost of panic. “Where were you when the Free State took in hand ending the Republican movements in Ireland?” was the query. Mr O’Donoghue in reply stated that he had just reached Limerick when the Free State decided to suppress all movements inimical to the expressed will of the people at the recent election. “Did you travel much through the south of Ireland?” “Yes,” was the reply. “I travelled and made stays in Tipperary, Galway, Clare, Westmeath, Kildare, King’s County, Cork, Kerry, in fact everywhere throughout the southern and middle counties.” “What is the feeling of the people in regard to the Free State?” \"Practically Ireland is for the Free State”. He felt that 95 per cent of the people were that way. A few of the younger men had formed sentimental attachments to the Republican Government which had been proclaimed and this carried them on to even flout the decision of the vast majority of the Irish people and led to the present trouble. He had met Republicans and argued with them, but sentiment had become a fetish and had led them to deny the right over of a 90 per cent majority. “But did they give any definite reason for upholding the Republican sentiment?” “No; no reason. They made a statement showing that they had sworn allegiance to the freedom of small nations during the Great War, and said that only a Republic gave freedom for Ireland; but when it was pointed out to them that over 90 per cent of the people considered the Free State gave them as much freedom as was required by the country they simply replied that no body had a right to dictate the form of government required.” Mr O’Donoghue felt that slowly and surely the Irish Free State would conquer its troubles. The difficulty of the Government was augmented by the fact that the warfare practised during the Black and Tan regime has been followed by the Republican forces, and the experienced game was now being used against the Free State National force themselves. Of course open defiance of the Government on the part of the Republicans had more or less ceased, and it is now only officially adhered to in out of the way places. “Was there much horror expressed in Ireland at the shooting of Michael Collins?” “I was in Dublin,” said O’Donoghue, “when the news was published, and I have never seen such scenes in my life. People broke down openly in the street when they received the news, and it took 24 hours for his death to be really accepted as a matter of fact. The body lay in state for some days, and the whole population of the east of Ireland seemed to file past it; and I may add,” said Mr O’Donoghtue, “I joined in the mournful pageant of tribute to a great leader and a man who had done his best for the country.” “What are the Irish sentiments now in regard to the Empire?” “Throughout Ireland, as I said before, 95 per cent, of the people look upon the establishment of the Free State as the end of the differences between the sister races, and the Irish feel that they helped to build up the Empire, fought for it (wherever British battles had been won), and now that they are entering the Empire freely as a free nation they will face more cheerfully than ever the world in arms when the Empire is in trouble.” | ||

Accidents: | Jun 1928 | William giving evidence as the passenger in a motor car accident |
Timaru Herald 15 June 1928: CLAIM FOR REPAIRS. .. A case arising out of a motor collision at the intersection of Sophia and Theodocia Streets on December 18, 1927 was heard before Mr C. R. Orr-Walker, S.M.. at the Timaru Magistrate\'s Court yesterday when Duncan Munro, clerk, of Christchurch, claimed from D. J. Doyle, Timaru, £16/13/8, cost of repairs to plaintiff’s car. The plaintiff alleged that the damage was caused through the negligent driving of the defendant [Doyle]. ... William O’Donoghue, retired farmer, who was in the car with plaintiff at the time of the accident, also gave evidence. For the defence, Mr Campbell said that motor collision cases were notorious for the amount of conflicting evidence they produced. In this case the evidence was most conflicting. They were surprised to hear that they were being charged with having caused the accident by swinging in front of the other car. Defendant was travelling at a slow pace, and had entered Theodocia Street, when he noticed the other car close on him. In an endeavour to avoid an accident defendant accelerated, and his car was struck on the back mudguard. Had the damage not been repaired, it would have shown that such was the case. The bump was fairly severe, for it swung the back of defendant’s car round, and he just managed to pull up before reaching a telegraph post. Defendant’s story was put in in writing on December 24, and it had not been contradicted until that day. Defendant [Doyle], in evidence, said that he had been driving for 17 or 18 years, and had not previously been involved in an accident. When driving along Sophia Street his speed was approximately 15 miles an hour. When about 10 or 15 yards off the corner, he saw another car coming down Theodocia Street. He considered that there was plenty of room to get round, but when half way across the street, he saw that the other car was almost on him. He then accelerated, but the other car struck his back mudguard and axle, lifting the car off the ground and swinging it round. He pulled up almost immediately. The cap of the axle, which was composed of heavy material, was dented in, and this could only have been done by a severe blow. The mudguard was also dented In, not scratched. A week after the accident he discovered that the back axle was broken and he considered this was the outcome of the accident. The statement made by the plaintiff that his car stopped 10 feet from the north corner was not correct. ... [Magistrate:]... Apparently both considered that from their positions prior to the accident, nothing could happen, yet a collision did take place, and very suddenly at that. Plaintiff would be non-suited, with costs £2/2/-. | ||
