Whitworth accompanied the Provincial Council survey party as the Otago Daily Times correspondent to report on Martin's Bay and its approaches as the site for a town and settlement. The consequences, of course, belied his forecast but the narrative contains much of interest on the Bay, the hinterland, Upper Hollyford, etc.--Bagnall, 6049. In New Zealand pamphlets v. 28.
