Sergeant Morice, in charge of tbs Lyttelton ts. Police Station, has mads enquiries wherever Winter would b; likely to have been £:en, but nothing further than that a ycung whose description agrees with Winter’s, called on Thursday night or Friday morning at the Traveller’s Erst, where Mr Foster is living, at the junction of Dyv.r’a Pats and Governor’s Bay road, and asked the bolt route to take to Akaroa, saying he thought of going to Purau. Winter was going en a visit to Mr Citron, chemist, at Akaroa, where he should have arrived on Friday last, assuming that he kept on his journey.
