MAORI SHOT AT
ARREST OF ALLEGED OFFENDER.
(Per Press Association.) GISBORNE, October 4.
Reports that a man was at large at Manutake with a loaded rifle led to a party of four police leaving Gisborne this morning. On reaching the locality they found that a five-acre section had been enclosed by hawthorn branches entwined in the fence. When approaching the house, the police were met by William Henry Gleye, against whom a complaint had been lodged. The presence of numerous bees in the building added to the difficulties of the police, but the arrest was effected without undue trouble. A loaded shotgun was found behind the front door of the house. Gleye later appeared before the Court charged' with discharging a gun at Charlie Panmure, a. native, with intent to do grievous bodily harm. He was remanded till October 9.
