Nicol, Charles Smith , Farmer, Tisbury. Mr Nicol was born in Dunedin, in 1857, and entered the telegraph service at an early age. He afterwards followed farm work for many years, and worked in Victoria for a year for Messrs D. Munro and Co., contractors. About 1891 Mr Nicol became manager of one of the New Zealand Pine Company's timber yards, and now manages the timber yard at Mr Wallis' sawmill at Hedgehope. He, however, resides on his farm of 100 acres in the Tisbury district. Mr Nicol has been a member of the Tisbury school committee for some time. Many years ago he was accustomed to run with some success at the Oamaru sports. Mr Nicol was married, in 1882, to a daughter of Mr James Henderson, now of Invercargill, and has three sons and five daughters.
