CAR BURNED.
COMPLETELY DEMOLISHED.
(By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.) TE AWAMUTU, Tuesday. While proceeding to Hamilton to-day in a five-seater motor car, the driver, Mr. R. W. Gibson, was compelled to make a hasty exit owing to it bursting into flames. Taylor's Hill, about a mile from Te Awamutu, had just been negotiated when the engine back-fired, and the car was soon a mass of flames and was quickly demolished.
