LOST MONEY AND JEWELLERY
ON KARAKA BAY BEACH Detectives and Plain-Clothes Constables visited Karaka Bay on Saturday morning to make inquiries about the reported loss of £4O in cash, and of jewellery to the value of about £lOO.
It is stated that on Friday morning last a lady residing in a house situated on the Zig-Zag at Karaka Bay, entrusted the money and valuables to her maid, and the latter, for greater safety, took both with her in a bag, when she went down to what is known as tho “Star” Beach with the children. After being on the beach for over an hour, she went home again with the children, forgetting all about tho treasure bag. About noon, she remembered the bag and its contents, and rushed down the Zig-Zag, and along the Parade to tho beach. Tho bag was missing. A long and exhaustive search and inquiry revealed nothing, so the matter was reported to tho police, who questioned many people in the Bay on Saturday in the hope of gaining a clue that would lead to the restoration of the missing bag.
