The flotsam and jetsam of .wrecks find queer and out-of-the-way resting places. A whole year has passed since the wreck of the Ripple, and now comes an echo of that fatality. About 20 miles in a southerly direction from the Chathams lies a small island, which is uninhabited. Mr T. McGlurg, the owner of the island, accompanied by Mr R.. Smylie, recently made a trip there to attend to the sheep, and found on the beach the notice-board of the Ripple. There, in white letters on a black ground were the words “SiSRipple sails for at and hn the reverse side “No admittance.” The board will now be used as a tally board in Mr McClurg’s woolshed. Weather permitting, the Haweha Municipal Band will play a programme |of music in High Street to-morrow (Saturday) night.
