“Terry was the central figure in a shooting affair in Haining street, Wellington, almost exactly a year ago, when an old Chinaman named Joe Kum Yung received two bullet wounds and was killed. “Terry violently objected to the admission of Asiatics into English countries, and wrote a book, entitled ‘The Shadow’, in which he set out his views, and appealed to the nation to rid itself of the foreign evil. It was in order to call attention to the Yellow Peril and to his book that he picked out a Chinaman in Wellington, followed him, and deliberately shot him. “Terry gave himself up to the police, was convicted of murder, and sentenced to be hanged, but the sentence was commuted to one of imprisonment for life, and as he was considered to be insane he was removed from the gaol to the Sunnyside Mental Hospital.” ....
ROSA WOODS/STUFF Police Museum Collections Curator Jessica Aitken recounts how white supremacist and murderer Lionel Terry began drawing the detective he obsessed over, Edward Eade. It’s a strange collection of items in the cabinet as you walk through the front doors of the New Zealand Police Museum in Porirua. A caricature, an artwork and a sword.

(File photo) The New Zealand Chinese Association will be formally making a complaint after a poem by an anti-Chinese extremist was included in an NCEA Level 2 history exam.

Terry was an Englishman who handed out pamphlets on racial purity. He is known for murdering Chinese man Joe Kum Yung on Wellington’s Haining St in 1905 ....
Opinion An NCEA history exam this year included a poem by Lionel Terry, a white supremacist and cold-blooded murderer. Chris Tse, who wrote a book inspired by Terry’s victim, explains why the exam question has caused such hurt within the Chinese New Zealand community. I have a complicated history with Lionel Terry, and it pains me to be writing about him again. If you’re unfamiliar with him, these are the facts: Terry was an Englishman who arrived in Aotearoa at the turn of the 20th century. He was an anti-Semitic racist who wrote turgid poems and letters espousing his views, that he then published and distributed as pamphlets. When his lobbying to get parliament to ban Chinese and East Asian immigration failed, he shot and killed Joe Kum Yung in Wellington’s Haining Street to bring his views about race “under the public notice”. In other words, he’s one of the biggest dickheads to tarnish the history books of Aotearoa. ....
