ACCIDENT ON MOUNT ECMONT.
fBY TELEGRAPH—PRESS ASSOCIATION.] Hawera, Friday. An accident occurred on Mount Egmont today to a party of tourists. While on the side of the mountain one of the party, Miss Mitchell, daughter of Mr J. W. Mitchell, of Manaia, was struck by a boulder, which had by some means got loose, and came rolling down with great velocity. Happily, it first struck another boulder, and the force of the blow was thus somewhat lessened. Nevertheless the lady was very seriously injured. She was carried down, arriving at 9 o'clock at night, and taken to her father's residence next day.
