“A DRUNKEN ORGY.”
THE SOUTHLAND INVASION. fPer Press Association.) DUNEDIN, August 3. The opinion that the Southland invasion was nothing more or less than a drunken orgy was expressed by the Rev. J. D. Smith, at a meeting of the Dunedin Presbytery to-night. It was decided, on the recommendation of the Public Questions Committee, to approach both the Otago and Southland Rugby Unions and the Railways Department with the object of securing their co-operation in discouraging occurrences of a similar kind in future. “I attended a big inter-State cricket Match in Australia,” said tlie’ Rev. f Miller. “There were hundreds of bottles lying about, but they were all lemonade bottles. It is strange that we should have to come to Presbyterian Dunedin to find such a, regrettable state of affairs as prevailed last Saturday.”
