A SCHOONER ASHORE
THE LADY ST. AUBIN STRANDED AT KAIPARA HEADS.
THE CREW SAFE
(By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.)
KAIPARA HEADS, this day
Yesterday while the schooner Lady St. Aubyn was beating in she went ashore on the North Spit, two and a half miles below the lighthouse, and is not likely to get off. The crew are all safe.
The Lady St. Aubyn is a wooden schooner of 150 tons gross register. She was built in 1871 at Penzance, and was purchased in 1809 by Mr R. Pitcaithly, of Lyttelton. She was blown ashore in the Wellington Harbour last year, but was got off without sustaining any serious damage. The Lady St. Aubyn has been lately employed in the trade between the Kaipara, and Wellington and Lyttelton.
