A JOYFUL RE-UNION.
We are glad to "learn that Mr. A. feerry, who was believed by his wife to have been drowned alongside the wreck, arrived safely on Saturday in the Clansman, having been rescued in the chief officer's boat. His name was telegraphed from Hohoura as Perry, which caused him to be classed among the missing. His wife also believed that she saw him drowned when the boat capsized alongside the ship. Mrs. Berry, on arrival of the Zealandia, with her three children, was taken charge of by the Salvation Army. The joy on meeting her husband upon the wharf this morning was overwhelming, and a most pathetic scene occurred. One of the family, a little girl, is still among the missing, and is supposed to have got into the third officer's boat. The mother of Mrs. Berry died through exposure, and was buried at sea.
