PAMIR IN GALE: 5550 MILES FROM AUCKLAND
(P.A.) WELLINGTON, July 19. The Pamir has encountered wintry conditions but all aboard are well, states a message from the barque received by the Union Steam Ship Company today. On Friday a north-west gale met the barque and switched to the south-west, said the message. Over the last three days her average speed was 11 knots.
The Pamir is 2000 miles out from Cape Town and 5550 miles from Auckland where she is expected in the middle of August.
