INT	DO YOU REMEMBER ANY OTHER LOCAL PEOPLE LIKE THE LOCAL POLICEMAN? 
377
JB	Yes, it's funny.  The old POLICE house was opposite the Caversham School.  
I can  remember the policeman but I can't remember his name.  I never did 
anything wrong, but I  remember him. 
379 INT	WAS THERE ONLY ONE POLICEMAN IN CAVERSHAM?385
JB	Yes.  This is when I was a child.  Things changed after I got married.  I 
was is  Riselaw Road and we had a POLICEman up the road, Mr Crawford.  He was a 
very nice man  too and he kept control. 387

MW: Mind you I think later on, to get into the government I think about three 
quarters  were Catholics. Government positions - civil services and places like 
that. And the  POLICE force and different places like that, sort of far more 
Catholics in those sort of  positions than anywhere. 365
MB: There were a lot of Catholic boys in the POLICE force and they were all in 
the  Dunedin Football Club. And they still are, well I don't know if they still 
are, but my  husband played for Dunedin and there were about eight out of 10 
were all cops. We used  to go to see football over at Carisbrook, and when 
Dunedin came out, the crowd used to  'booooo!'. It was horrible. They'd boo 
them, you know, because there were eight one  time, and they were all 
policeman.367
SB: Did they boo them because they were Catholic, or did they boo them because 
they were POLICEmen?369
MB: But it was quite strange. There were quite a lot of them - or quite a few of 
them  were POLICEman.     375

ah, our club  was in Russell Square [I: yeah, I've been to Russell Square, 
that's where the British  museum is, isn't it?] yeah, well our club was there, 
and I wanted to get to there, there  was a raid on, the Germans were over there 
that night, big raid in the streets, nobody  in the streets at all, and I'd a 
date at Kings Cross, and ah, I had to go by foot, so I  left Russell Square and 
I had a rough idea of the direction, and I asked a couple of  POLICEman, says "I 
want to get to Kings Cross, which is the best direction.  Which way  do I 
take?".  He says, "I couldn't tell you".  [laughter]   Now, work that one out.

	JM:  See, you can go back, this is only 40/45/50 years ago, I would say 
[185 inaudible]  down the north end.  Say there was a scrap over at the Captain 
Cook club, he'd go over  and break up the brawl and I always remember one, Dick 
Casey and Freddy Armshaw, "come  on, out here, the two of you".  Grabbed them 
out.  "get over in that reserve and finish  it over there".  And they had a 
POLICE station overlooked the, the museum grounds [CC:  oh yeah], you know, and 
they, the policeman they stayed and they used to lean on the  fence, while they 
fought it out themselves and they used to say, "no boots".  They used  to fight 
it out there.  [CC: yeah]  But not in the pub, they drove them out of the pub.   
"Go on, finish your own, get over there".  [laughter]  1379

to know  everybody.  You got to know who the mischief makers were, you got to 
know everyone like  that.  But today they've got motor cars and they can go and 
start a brawl here at North  East Valley and be out at Shiel Hill when the 
POLICE arrive.  [CC: yeah]  You know, we  shouldn't do that now.  1478

ED: Rugby. I tell you Shaun, I worked on the Railway. And I worked shift work. 
Like you  couldn't afford to play sport. Had to work every Saturday. For a 
start. See. And you  worked all around the clock. And you couldn't afford to 
play sport. See, this is way  back in the '30s. You know. Late-'30s. And you had 
your own football team. At work.  You'd play against the tram boys - you know, 
the tramways. They had a football team.  They were in the same style of work - 
working shift work. And the POLICE. And that was  the three. Played on Sunday 
mornings.218
ED: Yeah. Out here in Hancock Park. Or on the Oval. For a while it was on the 
Oval. It  was always the POLICE, the tram boys or the Railway. That's all the 
opportunity you had.  The only opportunity you had. You couldn't afford to join 
a club, because you didn't  have the --- you weren't guaranteed you could go 
there. 222
SB: RIGHT. BUT A LOT OF THE CHAPS IN THE TRAMWAYS AND THE RAILWAYS AND THE 
POLICE, THEY 
WOULD HAVE BEEN PROTESTANTS, RIGHT? 248
SB: YEAH. WHAT ABOUT THE POLICE AND THE TRAMWAY BOYS? WERE THEY PARTICULARLY 
ROMAN 
CATHOLIC OR PROTESTANT OR JUST A MIXTURE AGAIN?         264
ED: Not really, no. No. No. No. You seem to have lost everything, Shaun, when 
you went  to that job you're on. You lost interest in all --- in everything 
else. You were always  on the clock. Go to work at 12 o'clock at night, and 
later on in years when you went out  on the road, you were out on the rail 
outside, you start at 2 o'clock in the morning, 3  o'clock in the morning. So 
that's where it all came into operation. And that's why the  POLICEmen and all 
those people couldn't play rugby, because they had their shifts to do.  They 
couldn't go to practices, they couldn't do this and they couldn't do that. And I  
think that's why they brought them in with the Railway and the Tramways, 
understand what 
I mean?342

      BD:  Oh, there was always somebody kicking around.  Mostly, sometimes 
there is  some people going to work and going home.  There's plenty of people 
work, take the  POLICE for instance and there were other jobs you'd generally 
work at night time.  There  is not many really but
835
      BD:  Usually men after midnight.  (MC: RIGHT.)  Or even a couple going 
into a  dance or something like that.  (MC: RIGHT, RIGHT.)  But I came across 
one case in Oamaru  here and I don't know the likes of it yet.  I was going to 
work at two o'clock one  morning and I was biking through the main street and I 
saw woman walking backwards  underneath the verandas, and I was on the bike and 
that, I watched her and I saw her  start walking backwards and when she saw me 
she stopped and walked the other way and I  thought that was funny, there's 
something wrong there and she was walking alright and I  went to go on my bike 
and when I got up a bit further I saw her still walking backwards  and there was 
a POLICEman who used to walk, a policeman used to walk the corner streets  of 
the bakehouse and go back up and used to have a drink there with him or 
something  like that, and I said to him about this women.  'Ah, yes', he said, 
'I know her, she  does that sort of thing'.  She wasn't right.  She was walking 
backwards up the street.   He said, 'we know her, we seen that before, we've had 
trouble with her before'.
859       BD:  The POLICEman knew her, that's the thing we'd used to often see 
anyway, call  in at work, a policeman would come in in the middle of the night 
and have a drink of tea  with us.871
      BD:  Didn't happen in Dunedin, it happened in Oamaru.  (MC: RIGHT.) We 
used to  have a POLICEman in nearly every night.  He knew what time we had a 
drink of tea about  two or three in the morning and we'd have it out for him, 
when he was on his rounds.        875
      *BD:  There was this POLICEman in Dunedin who used to go out Caversham on 
a  pushbike.  You don't see that nowadays.879
      BD:  And I used to often see the POLICEman going door to door, trying all 
the shop  doors.  (MC:  CHECKING THEM?)  Yes, every night.  Used to, they used 
to go along all the  shops and try, see them, and they said that quite often 
you'd get somebody that had just  gone out and shut the door and forgot to lock 
it and of course other times somebody's  been breaking in.   883
      MC:  RIGHT, RIGHT.  DID THEY DO THAT KIND OF, WOULD YOU SEE THE POLICEMAN 
WALKING  AROUND IN DUNEDIN OR WERE THEY ALWAYS ON BICYCLES?      889
      BD:  Oh, he was the only one I saw on bicycle.  I think he must have come 
from the  main office in Dunedin, (MC: OH RIGHT.) I don't know, he used to go 
out (245) on the  main road.  I don't know what happened in Dunedin. But the 
POLICEman here, even a man on  the railways, a wheel tapper, all the trains that 
went through at night time, this bloke  used to have to tap all their wheels to 
make sure they were right and he used to have a  list of all the times the 
trains arrived in Oamaru and he'd, if there was any more than  three, often a 
train coming and there be a night train or a goods train, he'd be there 
at quarter to four to tap the wheels.891

      But we had, we had relations that had parted, all this big, nine of the 
family had  moved back to Britain, and the POLICEman there, he said they were 
very good, they, they  only had their own beat, you know, couple of blocks or 
streets to go through, and then  they had - turned and went back, but they 
passed this boy from one till the other, he  showed them his papers, and they 
gave him a free train-ride that got him from Liverpool  all the way up to 
Scotland. To have a holiday with his cousin. Oh, really.
335
      Anyway when he came back, of course he told them in court, in Blenheim 
this was,  he lived, and they said, or he said, that he'd said it's time 
already. And they didn't  believe him 'cause he was only twelve, so he passed 
over his papers to the mayor, to the  POLICE, to whatever, and each one they 
knew he hadn't been in - a soldier, the way he  saluted, you know how the 
soldiers salute, this way, he was a sailor and he saluted this  way, and he gave 
them all the salute one by one, when it was time to go home. They  passed his 
paper from one to the other, and it was to declare that seeing he - it must  
have been George the 5 - 337

G	I might have heard their names.  They were really worthwhile.  I think 
it's the  biggest mistake they ever made in taking those POLICEmen away from the 
suburban beat.   They were always on the job all the time, night and day.  They 
were marvellous.  They  saved an awful lot of trouble.  There was never any 
trouble in Caversham or any other  areas.813

said, oh, she said,  father said, I'm gonna go to the POLICE, she said, oh 
please don't, I couldn't stand  anything like that. She got her own way in the 
finish, and evidently the man ended up  having no pay, and all that sort of 
things must have hammered up with him, you know that  particular time. It was 
later on that he sort of got a wee bit [indistinct]. But it just  shows you how

food out and people were  arrested, you know, the riots and that, I can remember 
all those, because I was only  sixteen at the time.    1296       All that's 
gone today.  I mean, you know, the tendency is that, 'I'm alright  Jack', [MC:

in the paper were that poor bloke was ah, trying to put a tyre on and all these 
cars  passed and here he is a cripple, you know, and, and sitting in the snow 
trying to do a  wheel [FH: Yesterday morning...] and the POLICEman that came 
along [...in the paper...]  said that, you know, that he hoped that those people 
that passed him gave a lot of  thought to it, you know as far as they were 
concerned, that there was a poor bloke there  sitting in [...in the ice and 
going round and...] [MC: MMM.] [...Round and trying to put  this tyre on.].  So 
that that sort of thing years ago wouldn't have been done.  People  would've 
helped each other, but today [A car would've stopped immediately.] you know,  
I'm sure that if people saw someone lying in a gutter somewhere in town there 
that they  would just walk along and not see them.  There would be a lot that

COMMUNITY. THE  ROLE OF DIFFERENT PEOPLE LIKE THE LOCAL POLICEMAN BECAUSE I KNOW 
THERE WAS A LOCAL  POLICE STATION HERE. WHAT SORT OF FIGURE WAS THE LOCAL 
POLICEMAN? WAS HE WELL RESPECTED,  WELL LIKED, PART OF THE COMMUNITY? 1124
CI:The POLICEmen solved the things with their fists and their boots.1139
CI:On the spot. They'd come around and they would know, they asked me about my 
shanghai  and he says "where have you got it hidden" and I didn't know he was 
only guessing. And  he said "now break that thing up and never let me see it 
again" and just walked on. But  they handled everything. There was trouble at 
the freezing works and one man had the  whole thing terrorised and he could 
fight this fellow, he worked at the freezing works  and he used to stir up 
trouble at the Saturday night dances. Everybody was frightened of  him. He 
really had the district terrorised so they sent out one constable from town, he  
came from Takanui in Central Otago, Two brothers - they were legends in their 
own time,  So he went down there and he asked for this chap and they said "he's 
not here" and he  said "tell him I'm looking for him". So the fellow came 
looking for him and he said "so  you're the one who has been causing the 
trouble. Alright, its you and I for it". And he  took off his uniform~coat and 
helmet and they had a real set to. I believe it was a real  donnybrook. But the 
POLICEman won and there was no more trouble. You see there is no 
arrests.1147

whatsoever.  We had a POLICEman up the road, a policeman in those days up there

There was the Waterloo hotel, it  was there in those days.	used to run it in

KM: Rather unfortunate, but we did have a little bit of animosity between us 
kids coming  home from school with our Catholic school socks or ties or 
whatever, 'cause this was  more in the primary school days. And then you'd meet 
--- pass some non-Catholic children  and then the songs would go of course, one 
side of the road to the other. One would be  singing 'Catholic dogs, jump like 
frogs on a Sunday morning. The POLICEman comes and  smacks their bums and makes 
them say good morning'. And then the Catholics would reply:  'Prottie dogs jump 
like frogs on a Sunday morning', and repeat the same song. But there  was a 
little bit of animosity like that, but I think one of the things that helped 
lose  that animosity was sport. Because you had to play against them and with 
them. And some  of the teams we played in different sports you might find you've 
got Protestants and  Catholics playing in the same team which was wonderful. And 
there again I think the  number one thing that really did a lot to get rid of 
that animosity was the War, which  is an awful thing to say, but it did one good 
service.  157

the punishment metered out - the birch was in place then too.833
SB: UH-HMM. WAS THE POLICEMAN ON THE BEAT QUITE A VISIBLE FIGURE IN THE AREA?835
KM: Well we had a constable - Mr Palmer at St Kilda, but there was a South 
Dunedin,  there was a POLICE Station in South Dunedin. And you saw --- I can 
never remember Mr  Palmer in uniform, but I can remember the South Dunedin 
policeman in uniform, you know,  marching round. You saw him mostly when he was 
delivering jury summonses - that's when  we saw the constable. And you see we 
had our own Fire Station in South Dunedin then, at  St Kilda.841

GM: Well, George Spence was the best example because I was, we lived above him 
later,  over looking it and one day I saw him with someone in the back yard of 
the POLICE  station, from the house up the hill, but anyhow, the boy ran away 
from him and he ran  after him, so the boy came up the bush track towards me, 
the top of Clyde Hill there, so  anyhow, George would be surprised and the boy 
was more surprised when the boy came to  the top of track and I said, "I'll have 
you," and George arrived you see, and George  beat him. The point in mind, he 
really deserved it and George took him down by the  scruff of the neck, no 
thanks to me. Now that was firm discipline. It would be  absolutely not 
tolerated now and even George wouldn't do it again but you know, it was 
the thing to do and the boy was quite happy with his justice.1006

wasn't his boy, he wouldn't do that, but he  was the one that used to do that.

      And I remember because I was 14 and I had, he got me a wee job in a 
tobacconist's  in the No. 6 building, that was in the New Zealand corner and I 
used to be called Fanny  Faggs and of course all the people, me being young, 
they all looked after me and then I  was there from one to ten and then I would 
go over to the stall with dad and my sister  and ah we were there til the POLICE 
would be closing us up, we were the last ones who  closed at night time, close 
at 12 o'clock and because people kept coming and some of  them, he did have 
beautiful china and stuff, lovely ware, (MC: so the stall was very  busy?) all 
the time, yes and ah jugs with the exhibition, all sorts of things but all  good 
(MC: right).    53       ZS:  Oh, heavens above.  Well Coda, the one next to me, 
she worked for Dad in the  studio, in his proper, that was his real occupation, 
as a photographer, she worked there  and her husband-to-be was a POLICEman.  He 
must have come in with some other policeman  about photos or shift, I don't know 
whether it was a celebration of any kind or  anything, and of course she was an 
exceptionally good-looking girl.  She had platinum  blonde hair and blue eyes 
and ah that was that, they met that way.  But she was married  when she was 20 
(MC: right).  Just after my 21st, which is September, 'cause it was up  at the 
castle and then she was married in the October.  403       June would be the 
next one.  She married a POLICEman and she was only 20 too and  left Dunedin and 
went straight to Hastings and he was in the police there.  See we had  quite a 
connection with the police force cause my eldest son did six years in the police  
force too.  And an uncle of Herman's was in the police and that.  And then, now 
Verna  was married in Wellington and then Norma married a Dutchman on one of the 
KPM lines, the  ah Dutch shipping (MC: right), he was an officer on that.    421
      ZS:  Ah, the POLICE.441
      MC: POLICE, (ZS: They shifted around) RIGHT.      443
      So, I was always sad about the end because we would have a break for a 
week and we  were coming up to, Herman loved the races, we went up to 
Christchurch to a bed and  breakfast place there, a lovely place for 13 
shillings  a day, and my sister and her  husband, the POLICEman from 
Invercargill, so they came to and we had just back and  Eileen, that's my 
brother's wife, she was, you know very, hard to describe, I want to  go, you 
know one of these, straight blue eyes, beautiful teeth, all you saw, someone  
said to me what about the rest of her face, I couldn't tell you but she had 
beautiful  teeth and blue, blue eyes and she gave him a hell of a life till they 
were divorced, but  that's beside the point. 855

      *PT:      I was offered a position at the Supreme Court with Sir Robert 
Kennedy,  who was the judge, resident judge in Dunedin, as his associate, and I 
- he was very kind  enough to appoint me to that position, and I stayed with 
various judges in Dunedin until  - the next twenty-one years. And the last 
judge, Sir Trevor Henry, he was asked to go  back to Auckland, he asked me to go 
with him, but I felt I couldn't move to Auckland,  and mother was still alive 
then, and I was sort of the mainstay, you know, the home, and  so I opted to 
stay in Dunedin and I was then offered a position with the POLICE in the,  in 
the administration side, and I was there for six years. Then I got a little bit 
tired  of the police and I applied for a position which became vacant in the 
former Otago  Catchment Board, so I was there for ten years, so after that I 
retired.63

      JW:  Oh yes, yes.  Hop scotch was the game if you could find an old brick 
and make  a hop scotch pattern with that on the footpath.  Boys had trolleys but 
if the POLICEman  came down at night, the policeman used to come down at night 
and the trolleys would  disappear off the street.222
