THE LATE DROWNING ACCIDENT.
The body of the lad McKenzie was found floating in the river this morning just below the railway bridge. The father of the unfortunate lad discovered it, and after bringing it ashore he came on to Palmerston for a conveyance. The body will lie brought in to-day and an inquest will be held in the Commercial Hotel at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. The inquiry will, of course, be merely a formal one, as no fresh evidence is likely to be given, and in all probability the, circumstances under which the two deaths occurred will for ever remain unknown.
