MURDER CHARGE
WOMAN REMANDED (PA.) WELLINGTON, June 7. Detective-Sergeant J. Thompson asked leave in the Magistrate’s Court to-day to withdraw a charge against Mary Stuart Walker, aged 37, a married woman, of attempting to murder Richard Townsend Chorley on May 4. A charge of murder had now been preferred, he said, adding that Chorley died last Monday morning. He afterwards asked for a remand, which Mr J. L. Stout, S.M., granted to June 21 Tribute to Mr W. W. Mulholland.— “Mr Mulholland has never failed in putting forward wise and considered representations on all matters of vital concern to farmers during the difficult war years he has been in office,” said Mr L. V Talbot, when paying a tribute to the Dominion jpresident of the Farmers’ Union, at the annual conference of the South Canterbury executive of the union yesterday. He added it was a pity that Mr Mulholland’s knowledge and foresight had not been more fully made use of.
