FOUND SHOT.
QUARRY WORKER'S DEATH. (From Our Own Correspondent.) WHANGAREI, this day. Harry Wilson, aged 48 years, employed in the quarry at Wilson's mine, Waro, near Hikurangi, was found shot this morning with a pea rifle alongside his body. Wilson has been in ill-health for some time, and this morning he paid a visit to a medical man. On his return he went into some tea-tree opposite his house, and it was there that he was found by a passer-by with a bullet wound in his head and in a dying condition. He died shortly after the arrival of a doctor. He had been employed at the quarry for nine years and leaves a wife and two children. |
