OPOSSUMS IN TOWN
That opossums are encroaching into the town area was proven early this morning, when one was seen by a police constable to leave the back entrance of the Albion Hotel, run across the road and up a willow tree on the bank of the Taruheru River. The constable shone his torch on the animal and was able to verify it as definitely being an opossum, brown in colour. The same man recently saw an oppossum run up a post at the lower end of Stout street.
