HEREWINI FOUND GUILTY.
ON MANSLAUGHTER CHARGE,
HOTEL CONDUCT CENSURED,
AUCKLAND, This Day,
The trial of Hona Herewini, charged with the manslaughter of Mci Homi Hui at Awanui, was concluded before Judge Chapman yesterday. After a retirement of two hours the jury returned with a verdict of guilty, with a strong recommendation to mercy. A rider was added stating that the amount of drinking which apparently was permitted among natives at the Awanui Hotel was deserving of censure. The judge deferred sentence. —Press Assn.
