New Zealand Herald, 9 september 1892
Presentations; A meeting of merchants and others was held at the rooms of Messrs. Cook and Gray, Victoria-street, on August 17, for the purpose of presenting a testimonial to Mr. McKellar on the occasion of his departure from Auckland to occupy the office of Collector of Customs at Wellington, to which he has been promoted. The Mayor of Auckland (Mr. W. Crowther) presided. The Mayor said he had been requested to make the presentation of a purse of sovereigns, consisting of sums of money contributed by citizens of Auckland representing the principal mercantile houses, to Mr. McKellar on the occasion of his promotion to the collectorship at Wellington, which necessitated his removal from Auckland. It was more than 30 years ago since Mr. McKellar and he had first met and during the whole of that time he did not know of any officer in the Customs Department who had given less trouble or greater satisfaction to the mercantile community with whom he was brought into business relations. (Cheers). They wished Mr. McKellar every success. The presentation of sovereigns was enclosed in a very handsome purse, one cf a sample which had just been received by the mail steamer Ruahine. Mr. McKellar said that this mark of esteem from the merchants of Auckland took him by surprise, and he scarcely knew how to put into language the feelings which he wished to express. (Cheers.) He had always tried to do his duty, and it gave him great pleasure to find that he had done so to their satisfaction, and the presentation coming on this occasion (which was only a transfer) made the recognition all the more gratifying. Mr. C. C. McMillan moved a vote of thanks to the Mayor for presiding on this occasion. Mr. McKellar seconded the motion, and subsequently shook hands with the gentlemen present, each wishing him success and a prosperous future.
