present no occasion, but you may rely on being there in a few hours if circumstances require it. I have arranged to hear frequently from Napier so that if anything shd. occur there will be no delay in my recieving an intimation of it. The mail passes Waipukerau Telegraph office Monday and Friday Evenings. I have directed one of the Waipawa policeman to come here on Wednesday and Saturday calling at Waipukerau at 2 p.m. for Telegrams.
