INTERPROVINCIAL.
(BY TELEGRAPH—PRESS ASSOCIATION). Wellington, Last Night. A SKELETON has been found in the bush at Alnaruhi, near Gladstone, Wairarapa. It is supposed to be that of Mrs Murray, who disappeared on February 23rd, 1890. She was a very old woman, and a storm came on soon after she was missed. A prolonged search was made at the time without avail. The remains were found at the foot of a tree only half-a-milefrom the whare where her sons still live. They were discovered by some men felling bush, and were identified from what was left of her clothing.
