During the nearly four years' service over tho Wirokino Ferry, the mail has been delivered every , day, in spite of floods. As showing THE ADVATAGB Of IHtS BOUTE, 6V6U during the week of the late heavy flood, the mails and 27 passengers were conveyed by boat and vehicles. The route by boat was both safe and an enjoyable change to the passer gers in fact like a picnic, and all who travelled expressed themselves well pleased with the arrangements made.

On Monday, the 15tb April, the usual Cuach was run through the flood to Levin as well as a vehicle in the afternoon to Kereru, with the Manager of the New Zealand Estates Company and the Secretary of the Wellington Freezing Company as passengers, who failed to succeed in crossing at the Shannon Ferry in the morning.
