This will then afford great benefit both to the Ass.n & the colonist. N.B. To be got up in plain outline. William Holmes, Grammar School- Lyttelton- March 1851. (The above key & the sketches to which they refer, with the exceptions of Nos 5, 6, 9, 10 & 11 which were not sufficiently worth copying, are copies of the originals lent to me by the Rev Prebendary Jackson, 29 Mecklenburg Square, London, a prebendary of S. Paul’s Cathedral London & a son of the Rev. Thos Jackson, Bishop Designate of Lyttelton. Mr Holmes accompanied Bp Des. J. out to Canterbury & was a schoolmaster of the Ass.n I have had the copies lithographed. The Assn got into so much pecuniary difficulty that it was doubtless impossible to comply with Mr Holmes request to have these sketches published. T.M.Hocken, London Dec 15 1903).

Description
An account of the resource
Margin below image in ink in Dr Hocken’s hand: Lyttelton and Port Victoria March 1851; on mount in ink: The originals of these sketches, eleven in number, were taken by Mr William Holmes, who arrived at Lyttelton in the Castle Eden, in February 185He accompanied the Rev Dr Thomas Jackson, Bishop designate of Lyttelton & was appointed Assistant Master of the newly instituted First Lyttelton Grammar School. The sketches were lent to me in 1903 by the Rev. Prebendary Jackson of S. Paul’s Cathedral London & Son of the Bishop Designate. With the exception of Nos 5,6,9,10 & 11, which were not worth copying, I had them lithographed by one of the staff of the British Museum. To make them more legible & useful, I have slightly coloured them. Mr Holmes suggested that “My sketches be published in large 8vo with a little descriptive letterpress to be called Canterbury sketches and sold in a wrapper at a small amount, say 2/- or 2/6 or such a price that the poorest emigrant might afford. This will then afford great benefit both to the Association & the colonist. N.B. To be got up in plain outline.” The Association, however, got into so much pecuniary difficulty that it was doubtless impossible to comply with Mr Holmes’s request. T.M.H.; note by W. Holmes transcribed in ink by Dr Hocken: No I. Rhodes’s farm, Banks Peninsula. A native Pah. Pulao Bay. Castle Eden, 930 tons. Sumner Road. Town of Lyttelton. Port Victoria.

Description
An account of the resource
This showcase offers a representational sample of the pictures that Dr T. M. Hocken gave in trust for the people of New Zealand. At the time of his death in 1910 he had amassed 437 pictorial items, a collection of more than 4,000 printed volumes, as well as photographs, manuscripts and maps. Collectively these items are the Hocken Library’s founding gift and Dr Hocken’s abiding interest in the history of Southern New Zealand continues to shape what the Hocken collects today and preserves for the future benefit of researchers.
