THE KOUTUNUI STRANDING,
By Telegraph.—Per Press Association, Napier, December -22.
The magisterial inquiry into the stranding of the Koutunui on Orete Point found that the course set by the mate was too fine, and that the captain committed an error of judgment in not putting to sea, instead of continuing the voyage. The Court found that all behaved with skill and courage, and, in view of this, decided that the certificate of neither officer should be dealt witli. The captain was ordered to pay £0 10s 6d, the costs of the inquiry.
