Mr E. H. Cavell, Inspector of Post Offices, is now in the district on an official visit (says the Hawera Star). Mr Cavell was recently in the To ICuiti district, and rode on horseback from there to Taranaki. He came by way of Tongaporutu, Kutango, and Jvotare, a route that is not usually taken by travellers from that district. He says the trip is delightful and full of interest. There is much good country in the high lands. The route is in many places along a six-foot track, where the bush and fern brush the traveller as he goes through. The trip covered over a hundred miles.
