Per Press Association. Westport, last night. A resident of Ngakawau reports that when travelling from Karamea ha noticed a lot of wreckage strown along tho beach over a distance of 20 miles. In his opinion tho vessel lost must havo been a small schooner. The wreckage consisted chiefly of pieces of cabin fittings, doors, hatches, ono small bucket, and a tub painted green. A dog’s head carved from Baltic or American pine, probably a figure head, was also found. Two weeks ago tho Poherua saw a three-masted schooner off the land at Rocks Point. It was blowing hard at the time.
