I regret to have to report an accident to Mr Mcllhone, clerk to Messrs Elwart and Kreutzen, which occurred on Sunday afternoon. Biding from Whangarei his saddle turned and threw hhn, hurting one of his arms. The doctor could not say if it was broken or not, as it was much swolleu. Wanted- A Ferry. Whose fettil^s it that there is no ferry now at Ngunguru is hard to say. The hotelkeeper sayß he cannot afford to keep a man lor the'piirpose and pay an advance on his license. So the fault must come on the County Council. The Kaitea road is now impassable. Formally there was a subsidy of £10 allowed, when it was stopped I do not kiiow. Church. Service, The Eev. C. Marsh held divine service here on Sunday last. In the morning he had a Maori service at Mi Wellington's in afternoon an English service in the school. Both services were very well attended, and higbh appreciated.'
