Robert B. T. Miller

Summary

Introduction

Sadly, all that is known of Robert B. T. Miller is that he was the manager of the Rotorua branch of the Bank of New Zealand, when Mansfield visited the town in December 1907. During her month-long Urewera camping trip she used the various branches of the Bank of New Zealand in the towns where the party stopped at (her father being Chairman of the Board), as a poste restante for her mail.

Sunday – Nowhere.

Dear Mr Millar –

I have to thank you for keeping my none too small amount of correspondence– I went to the Bank yesterday afternoon – foolishly forgetting that it was closing day. Would you kindly address any letters that may arrive for me c/o Bank of New Zealand – Hastings – I shall be there on Saturday –

This paper is vile, but I am once more on the march.

Once more thank you –

Sincerely yours

K.M. Beauchamp
