what sheep farmers really want. When there is any account of your doings in the newspaper I wish you would send me one occasionally. I sent you a paper from hence containing a very interesting letter from Amphlet (late of the Niger) who was one of the survivors of that dreadful shipwreck at the Manakau. I can't yet understand how it happened - the pilot seems to have been steering the vessell from the Flag staff and saw her go aground yet did not recall the Wonga Wonga and send her to assist.
