I.O.G.T. — At the Alexandra Lodge on Thursday evening last. Mr R. B. Walcot, District Deputy, presented to Mr T. E. Price, P.G.W.M., on behalf of the members of the the Timaru Lodges, with a very handsome Grand Lodge Regalia, adorned with a massive silver shield, bearing a suitable inscription, for long and faithful services rendered to the cause of Good Templary in this district. Mr Price has been well-known for years as a foremost worker in all matters connected with the temperance cause, and his untiring efforts and genial disposition have won the confidence and esteem of all who have been associated with him in the order. The annual session of the Grand Lodge will commence its sittings at Nelson to-morrow, and Mr Price and Mr Mr R. Proctor, who have been elected as representatives for this district, left by the express train on Friday for that place.

Obituary

Mr. T. E. Price.
[by Telegraph. — Own Correspondent.]

Obituary
Mr Thos. Edward Price.

A well-known colonist of sixty-five years standing in the person of Mr Thomas Edward Price passed away at his residence "Builth,” Durham Street, yesterday afternoon at the age of ninety years. The late Mr Price was born in Builth, South Wales, and when fourteen years of age went to Australia. For some time he was in business as an auctioneer in Bendigo. He proceeded to New Zealand in 1863 and later was in Queenstown, Dunedin, Christchurch, Taranaki, Wanganui, the West Coast of the South Island, and Timaru.

He was in business as a photographer in Timaru for many years and dim moved to Masterton, where he lived for about twenty years. Thirty years ago he came to Tauranga and since then had lived here practically the whole of that time, being in business for a considerable period. He took a very keen interest in local and Dominion politics, and was a personal friend of the late Right Hon. R. J. Seddon.

While in Timaru he was a member of the Borough Council and the School Committee. He actively associated himself in Tauranga with all movements that were calculated to advance the interests of the town and district. He served on the School Committee, and Chamber of Commerce, and on the latter body was one of those associated with the steps that were taken for the establishment of the Tauranga Harbour Board. He was one of the small band of citizens who started the agitation nearly thirty years back for the railway, which, just as he passed away, is a realisation, thus crowning with success the efforts and cherished hopes of the original advocates in Tauranga and the Bay of Plenty.

He was a Justice of the Peace, and his services on the Bench were requisitioned on numerous occasions. For many years he was coroner for this district. He was an indefatigable temperance worker. He joined the first lodge of Good Templars in Timaru, where he was elected Chief Templar and subsequently was re-elected several times in succession. He was appointed District Deputy by the Grand Lodge, was made a Special Deputy by the Grand Sire Lodge of America, and was elected by the Grand Lodge to the position of Grand Marshal. He was largely responsible for the re-opening of the Temperance Lodge in Tauranga. He had a long record in the Masonic order and was initiated as a member at Charleston, on the West Coast, in 1867, which made him at the time of his death, one of the oldest Freemasons in New Zealand. He joined and assisted at the opening of the Caledonian Lodge, Timaru, in 1873, and was re-elected to the Master's chair for several years in succession. Under the dispensation of the Provincial Grand Lodge of Scotland he consecrated the Geraldine Lodge, and installed the first officers. He had a record for eleven years as Master of various Masonic lodges. He joined the Foresters in Queenstown in 1864. He was also an Oddfellow and in Timaru was elected Noble Grand, and District Deputy Grandmaster and represented the lodge in Dunedin and Timaru at Grand Lodge meetings. He joined the Orange Lodge in Timaru in 1876 and was Worshipful Master for two years. He was a member of the Rechabites in Timaru as far back as 1876 and was elected first Chief Ruler.

It will thus be seen that Mr Price during his long life gave much of his time to promoting the welfare of the people and the communities where he lived. He was the last male descendant of a very old Welsh family and claimed descent from Caractacus (King of the Britons, 43-50 A.D.).
 

modestia vestra notabiltr omnibus

One of Mr Price’s prized possessions was a photograph copy of his family’s arms. For several hundred years the original hung in the family home in the town of Builth, and when the family left Builth for Melbourne his father took it with him.

The late Mr Price was a man of firm opinions and was never afraid to give expression to his views. His estimable qualities won for him a host of friends. He is survived by Mrs Price and two daughters — Mrs W. G. Hulse, of Whitehall, Cambridge, and Miss Price of Tauranga — who will have the sympathy of a wide circle of friends in many parts of New Zealand in their bereavement. The funeral will leave deceased’s late residence, Durham Street, at 2.30 p.m. to-morrow.

We have had the pleasure of inspecting a series of photographs of Queenstown, the Arrow and surrounding locality, taken by Messrs Pain and Price, of this town, for the forthcoming Exhibition. The views are very correct and also vivid, considering the difficulty that oftentimes must be experienced of properly delineating distant objects in the scenery of our mountain-lake country. Some are on an extended scale, and will no doubt do much to give the public visiting the Exhibition some idea of our progress as a new goldfields town. The photographs shown at the Victorian Exhibition of the inland towns of that colony attracted much attention, both in Melbourne and at the Exhibition in London; and we are certain these views will not be the least interesting portion of the exhibits from this district.

Lake Wakatip Mail, Issue 171, 17 December 1864, Page 2

 

 

The 'Daily Times' says:—"The following is a list of exhibits already sent down from the Lake District, for the New Zealand Exhibition ... Photographic views of Lake scenery, and the various diggings, taken for the Exhibition by Messrs Price and Payne, of Queenstown...

Lake Wakatip Mail, Issue 179, 14 January 1865, Page 3

Photographic artists have paid us a long visit, and Messrs Pain and Price, Queenstown photographers, have travelled a long way up Skipper's with their apparatus, and will, no doubt, enlighten the colonists as to the appearance of our hills, gullies, bridges, waterwheels, claims, and townships.

Lake Wakatip Mail, Issue 189, 18 February 1865, Page 2

 

Messrs Price and Payne, of Queenstown, send photographs which give an excellent idea of that township on our great inland lake; the photographs themselves being very capital specimens of the art. There are several frames of portraits, &c, by resident photographers, which need not at present be particularised.

The Fire Brigade.— Yesterday morning, at 8 am., the members of the fire brigade, assembled at the engine-house, Market square, for the purpose of having their likenesses taken. This was very successfully done by Messrs. Price and Walker, of Lichfield street, Christchurch.

No. 6 Company.—About six weeks a match was fixed between ten members of No. 6 Company and the 2nd Battalion of Salop Engineers. The Christchurch Company were victorious, averaging 52 points against 39. At the time the match was fired in England, the Salop men had their photographs taken, and they were sent out to the colony by the last Panama mail. In return, the members of No. 6 Company competing in the match assembled on Thursday last in a paddock in Lichfield street to be photographed, so as to reciprocate the compliment. A very excellent picture was taken by Mr Price, of Lichfield street.

Mr. Price, whose skill as a photographer is well known, has again arrived in Westport and has temporarily re established himself at his old quarters next to the Post-office Hotel. He will remain a fortnight and during that time will be prepared to take carte de visites or execute any work in the profession for those who may favour his establishment with a call.

Westport Times, Volume III, Issue 354, 18 September 1868, Page 2

We have lately been shown some characteristic photographs of mining machinery, as exhibited in the plants of some of the large claims in the Charleston district. They are interesting from a local point of view, and have been well executed by Mr Price, who is just now in Westport on a business visit. We understand this gentleman returns again to Charleston in another day or two, and that his studio here will be then closed for some time.

Westport Times, Volume III, Issue 376, 14 October 1868, Page 2

We notice that Mr Price, photographer, has revisited Westport, after a stay of some length in Charleston, and is for a short season to resume the exercise of his art in Mr De Loree's photographic saloon in Molesworth street.

Westport Times, Volume III, Issue 465, 13 February 1869, Page 2

Mr Price, Photographer has, during the past few days, been engaged taking views of the principal streets and buildings in town, many of which are very creditable works of photography and denote the artist's skill and knowledge of his profession.

Mr H. J. Price [Hugh Jones Price], of Sydney, brother to Mr Price, of Westport and Charleston, is now taking cartes de visite and other portraits at Mr Hartman's studio in Molesworth street, where he will be engaged for a few days prior to commencing business in Wanganui. Mr Price's intimate acquaintance with the art and his skill as a photographer have been favorably noticed in other portions of the Colony.

It is notified in another column that Mr T. E. Price having repurchased the photographic studio from Mr Hartman will continue the business in Westport. A branch will also be opened shortly in Charleston.

Price and Hartman opened their studio in Timaru about March 1871 in premises above the Gazette Newspaper office at the corner of Beswick Street and Great South Road. This was previously the location used in Timaru by Frederick Smith of the Edinburgh Portrait Galley, Dunedin. Smith later had a studio in Munro's New Building, Great South Road in Timaru.

(this notice first appeared in the Timaru Herald on 8 March 1871 and continued for about 14 months until 13 May 1872)

 

 

Following a fire in the early hours of Monday 13 May 1872, the building was a total loss. However a large portion of their photographic plant, etc was saved. Uninsured, their loss was between £40 and £50. Later that month they re-opened the studio, again in premises previously occupied by the photographer Frederick Smith in Munro's New Buildings, Great South Road. 

 

 

Timaru Herald, Volume XVI, Issue 750, 22 May 1872, Page 3

The partnership between Price and Hartman was dissolved by mutual consent on 10 August 1872. Thomas Edward Price continued on as a photographer in Timaru, but it is not known what became of Edward Hartman.

We noticed at Mr T. E. Price's studio this morning, a photographic enlargement of the late Mr Haigh, of Greytown, whose melancholy fate at Coolgardie is familiar to our readers. The portrait is presented in the uniform of Greytown Fire Brigade, in which the deceased held the position of Lieutenant, and it is painted in an artistic manner by Mrs Price, who makes this branch of art a specialty. Altogether it makes one of the most striking and effective pictures which has come under our notice.

Wairarapa Daily Times, Volume XVI, Issue 4963, 28 February 1895, Page 2

Some very excellent Maori portrait work is now on view at Mr T. E. Price's studio in Queen-street. The coloring is very fine and shows exceptional skill; in fact, more artistic subjects could not be turned out anywhere in the Colony. The ability of Mrs Price as an artist in colors is well-known, and difficult work is often sent to her for execution, from distant parts.

Wairarapa Daily Times, Volume XVI, Issue 5148, 5 October 1895, Page 2

 

Mr T. E. Price, who has been in business in Masterton for a great number of years, has just sold his photographic business to Mr J. E. Minnis, of Christchurch. Mr Minnis is looked upon as being in the front rank of his profession. He has extensive business premises in Christchurch and other parts of the Colony. He is a young, energetic business man and we feel quite sure that his Masterton venture will prove a success.

Wairarapa Daily Times, Volume XVI, Issue 5519, 28 December 1896, Page 2

 

 

Mr. T. E. Price, J.P., the well-known Masterton photographer, is, about the end of the month, leaving the town, and district where tor many years he has carried on his business. His departure is generally regretted, because, besides being an expert in his profession, Mr Price, in a quiet, unobtrusive way, has rendered valuable aid in public matters, and done a great deal to promote the welfare and progress of the community with which for nearly half a life-time he has been associated. As a Justice of the Peace, both on and off the Bench, Mr Price has earned general esteem and respect. His absence will be a loss to the Masonic brotherhood to whose functions, when necessary, he has lent most valuable assistance. Mr Price's departure is due to the state of his wife's health, which necessitates a slight change of climate, and we understand that his new scene of operations will be Tauranga, on the East Coast. Mr Minnis, of Christchurch, an enterprising and accomplished knight of the camera is Mr Price's successor.
