Individual Note:
     Mr Robert McDonald, Manager of the Lime Burning Works at Limehills, was born in 1862, in Dunedin, where he was educated, and entered the boot factory of Sargood, Son and Ewen, with whom he remained for six months. He then went to farm work, at which he remained for some years. After working with Mr Proud-foot, the well-known contractor, for about four years, Mr McDonald went to the Milburn Lime and Cement Works, where he remained for sixteen years, gaining a knowledge of lime-burning in all its branches; and in 1902 he received his present appointment at Limehills. He has taken part in running, wrestling, stone-putting and caber-throwing events, and still competes in quoiting. During his residence at Milburn, Mr McDonald was a member of the local school committee. He was married, in 1889, to a daughter of Mr George Carson, of Millburn, and has one son and one daughter.
