    Notes 
    • Kibblewhite and Wilson (E. R. Kibblewhite and W. M. Wilson), Coachbuilders, Wheelwrights, and General Blacksmiths, High Street, Eketahuna. Bankers, Bank of New Zealand. This well known business was established in 1891 by Mr. Edward Richard Kibblewhite, who had been for ten years previously in business in Masterton. The building, which is spacious, consists of blacksmith's shop, coachbuilding department, paint room and office. A fair share of the business of the district comes to the establishment, the work turned out giving general satisfaction. All kinds of vehicles, including buggies, traps, timber waggons, business carts and coaches, are constructed on the premises. The coach built for Mr. Harding was designed by Mr. Wilson, and is one of the best finished vehicles in the district. Mr.
      Kibblewhite, the senior partner, is the son of the late Mr. Richard Kibblewhite, one of the earliest Wairarapa settlers, who arrived in the Colony in 1841. Born in 1857 in Masterton, Mr. Kibblewhite was apprenticed to the coachbuilding trade, and he started in business for himself in 1880, removing to Eketahuna in 1890. Mr. Wilson was admitted to the firm five years later. Mr. Kibblewhite's private residence is situated on the bank of the Makakahi River, and is appropriately named "Riversdale." He is a member of the Oddfellows' Lodge, and of the Eketahuna Rifle Club. Mr. William M. Wilson was born in Glasgow in 1868, and came with his parents to New Zealand when eight years of age. Educated in Wellington he served his apprenticeship with Mr. John Fitchett, coachbuilder, of that city. For several years afterwards he was with Messrs. Rouse and Hurrell and other leading firms of the Empire City. On coming to Eketahuna he was employed by Mr. Wilfred Woolf, whose business he subsequently bought and entered the present firm. Mr. Wilson is interested in Friendly Societies as a member of the local Oddfellows' Lodge. In aquatics he took an active part as a member of the Wellington Rowing Club, being in the senior fours in 1892, and was a winner of several trophies.
