ANOTHER FATAL BOAT ACCIDENT.
[By Telegraph. J AUCKLAND, November 9. A settler named Day and four sons was coming down the harbor on Saturday afternoon, in the yacht Mary Ann, laden with firewood, when a squall struck her. She heeled over, filled, and sank about half-a-mile from Queen street wharf. A pleasure boat picked up three of the sons, but the father and one son was drowned. The bodies have not been recovered. The Mary Ann is the yacht which capsized several months ago, when a fisherman and a boy were drowned.
