Exceptionally rough-iveather m-8 experienced by the -.Union Company's,,'-.turret ■ steamer Koromdko on the run, across the Ismail Sea. from Newcastle to Wellington this trip. It proved to be a most trying time for ; all on board. From the .time she left Newcastle,- at 6.55 a.ml on Thursday, Jaily 1, till Stephen- bland was picked up • at 12.5 p.m. on Wednesday, the ship was • brought along by Captain A. H. Davey by "dead reckoning." The seas were .exceediiiirly high, and the: wind came; away.'from • . the north-east in- hurricane force. On '6everajL occasions the Koromiko had to : be "hovc-to." Big seas were shipped,: flooding practioally : every department. .In fact,, ■everything was. awash at times. : Captain A. H. .Davey and liis officers had a most trying time, and the e kip per had hardly, any' .rest all. the way across. A tribute - has been paid to him for his seamanship in bringing the Koromiko safely .into-port through an exceptional ordeal.-.. 1. TONGAR.IUO FOR DURBAN AND LONDON. . Tho.
