Miller Bros. (Henry Holmes Miller and William Nicholson Miller), of “Tauroa,” Ngaturi, have an estate of about 1250 acres. It was all dense bush when they purchased in 1888, but is now all green with English grasses and well stocked with sheep and cattle. The pretty villa residence of nine rooms presents a snug appearance, and is surrounded by all the accessories of a comfortable homestead. The Messrs. Miller are the sons of the Hon. H. J. Miller, M.L.C., Speaker of the Legislative Council, whose picture and sketch appear on p. 96 of this volume. The elder brother, Mr. H. H. Miller, was born in Dunedin in 1866, and was educated at Christ's College, Canterbury. Prior to settling in Ngaturi he cadetted on several stations in the South Island. He was married on the 10th of April, 1895, to Miss Caroline Greville, daughter of Mr. J. H. Greville, of Pahiatua.
