t ie some doubt concerning the identification ' of the dead bpdy of the man found in, a gully on tho Wadestown Estate yesterday morning. Two boarders at the Otago Buffet are of the opinion that the clothes are those of a seaman named .Frederick Hedgelong, also kiiown as Fred Brown, who has been missing from the restaurant. Henry Pinny, of Willowbank Boardinghc-use, expressed ,the belief that the body is that of a gardener named John Mailing, who went to the boardinghouse at the latter ■ end of April, and remained there till 19th May. He did not know whero Mailing came from or where be went. An i%uest concerning the death was held before Mr. A. Simpson, deputycoroner, at the morgue this afternoon. A meeting , of the Railway (Seddon) Memorial Fund Committee was held in the Railway Library Rooms last night. It'was reported that sub-committees were constituted at Petone Workshops, Upper Hutt, Cross Creek, Masterton, Woodville, Dannevirke, Waipukurau, and Napier. The almost unanimous voting was in favour of setting aside' all railway subscriptions' to the Seddon National Memorial Fund towards the formation of a Seddon Railway Widows' Relief Fund. It wps unanimously decided that all sub-commit-tees throughout tho Wellington-Napier district (including the members of the A.S.R.S. and. R.O. Institutes) should amalgamate in contributing all surplus from social functions to the Seddon Railway Widows'' Relief Fund. The replies received, from the various sub-corn-nhittees make it apparent that this fund will be annually contributed, to, apart from the surplus from social gatherings.
