Mud Galore
The settlers of Raetihi are in sore straits owing to the awful condition of the road from Pipiriki to that township. The distance is 17 miles and freights are £lO per ton, it being difficult even at that figure to procure carriage. The coaches have ceased running, and the township is practically isolated, the road being a sea of mud, in which several horses have been smothered.
