Drifter At Russell
(Special) RUSSELL, This Day. The cutter Drifter arrived in Russell yesterday evening with the sick member of her crew, Rex Wright, on beard. Mr Wright is to go to Auckland by service car today, and the cutter will be sailed to Auckland by the remaining members of her crew. When the Drifter was about 160 miles out in the Tasman on her voyage to Australia Mr Wright became ill and the cuter turned back to return to New Zealand. She made a slow voyage, being delayed by unfavourable winds.
