Abstract
Extract
It is with deep regret that we have to record the death of Mr. Kyle, of Christchruch, who was a widely known and respected member of pur profession. He was born in Melbourne in 1873 and spent the early part of his life in the Riverina district of new South Wales. He graduated as a veterinary surgeon in Melbourne in 1895 and practised in Ballarat until 1901, when he came to New Zealand. He was in government service until 11918 and, after one year in the army, commenced private practice in Christchurch in 1919. He gave up practice on his election to Parliament but resumed on his retirement from office, Mr. Kyle first entered the field of public affairs in local body service and became Mayor of the Borough of Riccarton in 1925, a post which, except for the years 1927 to 1929, he claimed as a record for New Zealand, being 28 years.
