Note: Numerous adverts for private dancing and French lessons by Professor Aujard in various New Zealand newspapers in the period 1893-1896, on the website Papers Past (http://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz).

Says the Grey River Argus:- "Monsieur Aujard, professor of dancing, who has been very successful all through New Zealand, has just arrived from Blenheim, where he taught over 100 pupils. The professor brings with him the highest testimonials from the French Consul in Christchurch, the Hon. E.W.Parker." Our correspondent does not say what the professor has been successful at. We can supply the information - a forgetfulness to pay his advertising and other expenses.
