Per Press • Associate". WHANGAREI, November 25. Two young ladies were bathing at the mouth of the Matapouri river, when they were carried off their feet by the rapid tide into deep water. .Mrs Pullman. was bathing with them and went to their rescue. She caught hold of them, but could not regain the shore. Mrs Clements, who was riding past, dismounted and plunged in fully dressed.
