When the dungaree-clad youths, William Albert North and Thomas Vance, appeared at the Police Court again this morning the police stated that the captain of the Bullaren had consented to take them back on the ship and out of the Dominion. Mr F. K. Hunt, S.M., thereupon dismissed the charges of stowing ayvay. Both the students seemed overjoyed when they realised that they yvere to go back to the Bullaren and not to gaol on further remand. They sailed on the Bullaren for Wellington.

They yvill have to yvork for their keep, but they’ do not mind that.
