MORE AMBERGRIS FOUND
PIECE WEIGHS 24 OUNCES (From Our Own Correspondent) DARGAVILLE, Monday. Another good find of ambergris was made by Mr. V. Subritzky on Saturday, while near the same spot near the Kaipara Heads, where he recently found the record piece. The latest find weighs 240 z. The huge piece found the week before last is now safely deposited in a bank at Auckland, and has been insured for £5,000. Experts who have seen it declare is to be of very good quality, and well up to the value which has been placed upon it.
