RAZOR IN FO’CASTLE COMPANION SLAIN MISSION SHIP TRAGEDY By Cable. —Press Association. —Copyright Reed. 11.40 a.m. SYDNEY, To-day. Scarcely had the missionary steamer John Williams passed through the worst of the violent gaie off Broken Bay when one of her native boys ran amok and, after almost cutting off the head of one of his companions with a razor, savagely attacked another on whom he inflicted serious injuries. He is now in a critical condition. The ship’s officers were attracted by a commotion in the boys’ quarters and rushed below where the assailant submitted quietly, offering no resistance when put in irons. On arrival in port the wounded man was sent to hospital and the attacker arrested.—A. and N.Z.
