As the party did not return that night a search party set out and found Goldsmith and Manuel, who had become, separated from their companions. They had killed a pig and cut it into quarters, each carrying a share, but they had nc matches with which to light a fil'e and neither did they have other food. Horohoro Plateau is fairly level on the top, but there is thick bush and it would be easy for inexperienced men tc lose their way. A search for the missing men yesterday proved unsuccessful. Parties are out again to-day, assisted by the police There was heavy rain on Sunday night and yesterday, but the weather was not cold.
