GENERAL TELEGRAMS.
A LIGHTER ASHORE. By Telegraph—Press Association. Napier, Tuesday. The lighter Trusty, laden with fifty tons of manure, broke away from the breastwork at Port Ahuriri during the night, and drifted out into the bay, ultimately being cast up on the beach halfway between the port and Petane. No one was aboard, and the mishap was not discovered till she was found high and dry and uninjured. The vessel is owned by Captain Tonkin and Kinross White, both of Napier. It is expected the Trusty will be refloated when the sea subsides.
