HUMAN BONES
FOUND NEAR KAIKOURA. SEARCH FOR MRS PATIENCE STILL IN PROGRESS. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH. This Day. Human bones found buried near Kaikoura and investigated by the police give no clue to the 'disappearance of Mrs Harriet Jane Patience from the Claverly Public Works camp on October 4 of last year. The police investigating at Claverly went to an area where they dug up the remains. It was concluded, however, that they were about fifty years old. The bones were found to be human ones, but their age immediately showed that they had no connection with the Claverly disappearance. The search is still continuing, over a large area in the vicinity of Claverly, for Mrs Patience, the sixty-year-old wife of Arthur John Patience, Public Works employee, who was living at Claverly at the time of her disappearance.
