SHIPWRECK AND LOSS OF LIFE.
Invercargill, May 21. The ketch Anne, bound from Dunedin to Riverton with a cargo, foundered last night on the Outer Sandspit, about three-quarters of a mile E of the Bluff Pilot Station. All bands, three in number, are lost. She was commanded by Captain Stephen Tall. The names of the two other seamen on board are not known, neither is it known whether the craft and cargo were insured. No bodies have yet been picked tip,although active search has been made. The wreck of the ill-fated vessel, which was almost totally submerged, has just been towed into Bluff Harbor by the Kakanui. It was at first supposed the vessel wrecked was a fishing cutternamed the Ariel.
