The rainfall has not been particularly heavy the humid conditions are melting the snow and this will rise the rivers.

The other tw<o streams remain to be finished, but 'only the heaviest floods will affect the traffic.

The cortege moved from the Church of the Sacred Heart. Rev. Father Ginisty rendered the prayers for the dead at the church, and Rev. Fathers O’Meeghan and Ginisty officiated at the graveside. Mr. Geo. Citossman senior, underwent a further operation at the Reefton Hospital on Friday last, and is progressing favourably after the operation.
