SYMPATHETIC PASSENGERS.
Per Press Association. AUCKLAND, Sept. 28. Driven to desperation by the circumstances of her married lite, a woman in her early ’Bo’s walked aboard the Remuera at London with a gangway pass, hid in the pantry, and revealed herself a few hours after leaving Plymouth. Moved by sympathy, the passengers raised over £4O and permission was obtained by wireless to carry her as a passenger. She was also lavishly supplied with clothing. Telling her story at Auckland this morning, she said her home was at Croydon (Sydney). She had followed her husband to England in May last. He had a mental collapse and was an inmate of an institution. She worked in an East End .hotel and suddenly decided to board the Remuera. She is continuing to Sydney next week.
