AWARD FOR GALLANTRY.
Per Press Association. Wellington, May 20. Early in .January last year four Italian fishermen, while engaged at their calling m Palliscr Bay aboard the steam launch Napoli, were blown out to sea. Their plight was desperate when the Union Company's steamer Rosamond from IVestport to Napier bore down upon them. The launch was then awash, and the Italians exhausted. They were hauled aboard the Rosamond after considerable difficulty (in which the second officer, Mr. 11. Newing, distinguished himself), and given the attention their condition demanded. The Consul for Italy has now received from the Italian Gotcrnmerit medals for presentation to Captain Cnshman, who was then master of the Rosamond, and Mr. Newing. Captain Cashman is nt present in Sydney, and Mr. Newing is now an officer on too TaUapuna.
