Frank Towsey has gone West. The genial mine host of the Waverley was not always engaged in such palatial and luxurious quarters. He came out in a "windjammer," and was at one time a steward in the employ of the Union Steamship Co., and afterwards came ashore and commenced business in Lower Queen Street, and later in The Dive, the entrance to which was situated, as all old Aucklanders know, alongside what is now the new entrance to the Imperial Hotel. Mention of The Dive under Frank’s management conjures up memories of many a good meal. Ten or twelve years ago one could obtain a liberal helping of undercut steak with a dressing of oysters for 1s (shilling). at this famous eating house. The quality of Frank’s menu was even mentioned in Supreme Court proceedings. After he disposed of The Dive, and took over the management of the dining room at the Waverley Hotel the quality of the meals again made a name for the house. Frank’s genial smile and greeting will be sadly missed by all his friends, new and old.
