DISCOVERY OF MOA BONES.

GISBORNE, May 23.

A most interesting discovery of moa bones was made on Thursday last by Mr B. Watkins on Mr Wallis' property at Tuperoa. Entering a cave on the side of a mountain near Hikerangi, Mr Watkins found four moa bones. The cave is rather damp, but the bones are in a fair state of preservation. This is believed to be the first discovery of moa bones in the district.
