Cameron, H. And A., Farmers, Okau, near Masterton. The sons of Mr. Alexander Cameron, who arrived with his parents at Wellington on the last day of 1840, Messrs. H. and A Cameron were born at Kaiwarra. Both partners were educated in Wellington, and, having gained experience of a country life, they acquired the estate they now work in 1888. It consists of 1100 acres—originally part of the Blairlogie and Langdale stations—which is fully laid down in good grasses and sustains a healthy flock of sheep, besides some cattle. Messrs. Cameron's homestead, which is given in the illustration, is beautifully situated 'midst tastefully laid out grounds.
