Panmure Mystery Still Unsolved
NO SIGN OF MISSING GIEL Per Press Association. AUCKLAND, Last Night. The mystery surrounding the death of the young woman whose body was found in the Tamaki river at Pannrure ou June 2 is proving difficult to solve, and the police are faced with an equally difficult task in endeavouring to trace the missing To Puke gin', Mary Elizabeth Eaymond. The body remains unidentified and no statement has yet been made as to the cause of death.
After a thorough inquiry the detectives have succeeded in tracing the origin of the bundle of clothing that was seen, by tho two boys in the river above Panmure bridge. It has been definitely established that tho clothing was in no way connected either with the dead girl or with Miss Raymond, but that it was tied up and thrown into the Panmure basin on Anzac Day. The bundle of clothing was thrown into the water as a simple method of disposing of it. Constables were engaged to-day in a search of the foreshore near Buckland’s beach in the hope that any clothing belonging to the dead girl might have been cast ashore by the rough seas at the week-end. It is stated by the police that no arrangements have yet been made for the interment of the body.
