The Feilding and Palmerston contingent of Volunteers, numbering about 60, who were shipped at Opunaki for Wanganui by the Hauraki, were detained by stress of weather under Cape Egmont for 24 hours, and only arrived at Wanganui on Tuesday morning. The revenue from the Wanganui section of railway for the four-weekly period, ending 15th October, was £3,735, against £2,641 for the corresponding period of last year. The name of the European woman found in the Parihaka pah, and who had been detained there for some years, is Ellen Sturmey, and is said to be well known in the Taranaki district.
