NIGHT IN FREEZER TRUCK
BLACK KITTEN SURVIVES ORDEAL [Pin Unixed Pais* Association.] AUCKLAND, March 13. Stiff with cold; and with its fur frozen hard, a little black kitten was found in a refrigerated truck at the central wharf this morning. It must have 1 entered the truck while' carcasses of frozen mutton for England were being loaded at Westfield yesterday. : The kitten spent the whole night in a temperature in which a human being ordinarily clad would not live for more than an hour or two. When the kitten was discovered there were plenty of ready hands among the watersiders to render first aid, and after it had been nursed for a time against the body of the man who, found it, it was given warm milk, and later a feed of fish; and in quick time it was frisking about in the wharf shed.
