(By Telegraph-—Per Press Association.)
NEW PLYMOUTH, April 22

They lighted a large fire with difficulty and although the night conditions w'ere cold and wet they survived the experience with nothing but chilly and vivid recollection. At daylight they found the way back to the hostel some with a taste of real hunger and thirst. '
