FAREWELL TO NAPIER
(By Toleffraph.-Press Association.) KAPIER, This Day. The environs of the railway station were crowded this morning, some time before and up to the time of the departure of the Royal train. The waiting crowds, however, were doomed to disappointment, as the Duke and Duchess were not sighted, as the Royal couple slepfon the train through the night, and did not show themselves. A? the train steamed out precisely at 8 a.m., preceded by a pilot train at 7.45, hundreds lined the railway route leading out of the to-\vn, and cheered lustily as the Royal coaches rolled by. The weather was gloriously fine, and typical of a real Hawkes Bay summer. "
