Mutch claims in this notice that he was "formerly connected" with the photographers Morris and Co., Dunedin and Charles Henry Manning, Christchurch. There were no Dunedin photographers named "Morris & Co." and this may refer to John Richard Morris. This notice continued in the Lake Wakatip Mail until 23 September 1892.

Mr Mutch, photographer, has arrived in Queenstown, and is now prepared to do business. Studio, opposite Bank of New Zealand.

A number of gentlemen met at Mr Mutch's photo studio on Monday evening with a view of forming a draughts and chess club. It was unanimously agreed that such a club was desirable and a committee was appointed to arrange preliminaries. Mr T. Bell kindly offered his large room for the club to meet in, which was accepted with thanks. It was decided to fix the subscription at 2s 6d. Mr Walker was elected president, Mr J. Gardiner, vice president, and Mr J. Mchaffey secretary and treasurer. The list showed that there were 16 members and the secretary informed the meeting that several others intended joining. The opening night of the club was held in Mr Bell's auction room last evening when there were about a dozen members present. A number of games were played and a very pleasant evening spent.

An Object Lesson.
Mr P. Malaghan, a Queenstown photographer, has taken a picture of a shag trying to swallow a trout 18in long, showing the fish, after filling the stomach of the shag, protruding inches beyond the shag's beak.

Here is an object lesson to our political shags at Wellington, who, after swallowing a £40 advance in their wages - not of sin - one year, did not hesitate to strain at £60 another. But their swallow was equal to the strain, the query being, How much would choke them? To have acted logically they should have taken their case before the Arbitration Court for adjudication.
