In connection with the Wairarapa disaster several cases of missing her, or abandoning the intention of travelling by her, and taking passage by a later vessel, or leaving by her instead of one of the latter, are told. There are also cases of wrong-booking, and so on. An instance in point. A son and daughter of Mr and Mrs I’aap—Miss (Carry) and Mr Charles Faap, respectively—were returning from Sydney. Thinking that the Kotomahana was the first vessel leaving Sydney they booked by her. Subsequently they found that the Wairarapa was to start earlier, and they then regretted that they had not taken passage by her. Fortunately for them they determined to wait for the vessel they had booked by, and thus they were saved, if not from death itself, at least a terrible experience. —Shearing commences at Waipapa next Thursday, H. Schroeder invites tenders until Saturday for fencing posts.
