[by telegraph—press association.] AUCKLAND, March 24.
A few nights ago a well-dressed woman, a visitor from Hawke’s Bay, rushed into a Boardinghouse at Jtemuera where ‘she was residing and excitedly announced that -she had been robbed of £l5O from her handbag, and of a diamond ring from her finger, by' a man who rushed at her. An inquiry by detectives- elicited a confession by the woman that she was about to be married. Everything had been arranged for the ceremony, even to- the prospective honeymoon and a. nice little home 1 . Her future husband had sent her from Hawke’s Bay to Auckland to purchase her trousseau and furniture an dhad given her £l5O for this purpose. In reality the money had been dissipated in some mysterious and expensive manner, details of which are not available.
