BLUFF NOTES.
The brass band concert held on Monday evening last was well attended, and proved a most enjoyable e venin g’s en t e rtainmen t. The grain season has now fairly started, and the various storing sheds are now kept busy. All attempts, so far, to recover Mr Scollay’s cutter “ Eclipse ” have proved unavailing, but it is hoped she will be brought to the surface yet; meantime much sympathy is felt for Mr Scollay in his heavy loss. Local boat owners are preparing for the Invercargill regatta, intending to have a cut in the good things going. Experts, though, opine the Bluff boats are not fast enough for Invercargill. The barque “Wilhelmine” is steadily loading and is now the only sailing, vessel on the berth for London. The s.s. “Hawkes Bay” and “Tekoa” are due in a few days to load frozen produce.
