They intended to return ou bunday. So far nothing has been hoard or soon of the party, and a heavy sea, whipped by an easterly gale, has boon such as to cause the relatives much anxiety. The party consists of Allen Abbot, John King, Harold Jones, and two Maoris. The only hope is that the boat is sheltering at the islands. It is too rough for a launch to search, but Captain Gash, of the motor ship Otimai, now sheltering at Ohiwa, will endeavour to put to sea to-day in search of the boat.
